I know that there are a few ESO topics already, but was unsure which one to put this.
Anyways, *beep* yeah:

The possibility of this happening is exactly why I relented and Bought the pre-order at the start. It will be good to get back to my sorceror :)

Have to admit though that when I did play it the time gates did keep screaming at me that it was all set up for B2P from the start.

I was a bit put off by it's monthly cost, but not it seems to have gone free (well apart from the upfront cost). Is it worth playing? Or should I just crack open Skyrim again to get my fix?

I know that my friend is really addicted to it.. but for me.. i bought the game and played it for a mth since the day of the launch.. but it didn't give me the skyrim feel of excitement and exploration.
But it was fun none the less if your used to.. and like, Fantasy MMORPG you will like it.
It wants ingame money for everything.. even to travel, so its a grind fest for everything.

But.. Skyrim.. it isnt (in my personal view) .. though it may have changed. My friend keep telling me to jump back into it.. So as soon as I get my new PC, ill be going back to it for another try.. you need a good up to date PC or PS4/XB1 to play it properly.
Im glad its not completely free.. as you tend to get annoying troll players.

Actually, you need in-game gold for very little really. As far as travel goes, if you go up to a Wayshrine you can travel for free to any other area's Wayshrine in the game that you have previously discovered. You do have the option of instant travel for gold if you don't want to go to the many Wayshrines scattered around each map. Horses can cost about 43K gold, or if you bought the Imperial Edition you can buy the Imperial horse for 2 gold or spend 900 Crowns (like Zen) in the store for the same mounts sold for in-game gold. Other than that your only other recurring expenses are for repairs and maybe some crafting materials you haven't looted out in the world. Of course the usual things can be bought if you wish like bank space, character respecs, vendor sold equipment, and at the Guild Traders that are similar to an auction house.

I've got it and am glad it's gone sub free as I hardly ever play it. I'd be up for some more play if people fancied it?

I've been feeling the Fantasy MMO thing lately, which is why I've been playing Neverwinter and if people are actually playing I'd be potentially interested in joining.

If you are referring to the end of the Main Story at level 50 where you have defeated Molag Bal, ESO still sends you to the second of the 3 factions, giving you the 'Cadwell's Silver' quest for you to advance in the Veteran ranks and Champion system. Then you go to the 3rd faction. Daggerfall Covenant goes to Aldmeri Dominion first, and Ebonheart Pact goes to Daggerfall Covenant first. I don't know which faction AD goes to first. Also, if you just have the Beta installed you will still have to buy the game to play regardless of whether you buy a sub or not.

Honestly, I played it in the closed beta and wasn't impressed. If I want my fantasy mmorpg fix, I will probably go play Rift. It's free and more diversified - at least in my opinion.
