    could have been the best mmorpg ever released after WoW but combat is so clanky, spammy and repeatitve because of limited usable skills/abilities i stopped playing because of that.

    Let me be the devil's advocate here. And let's stick to facts:

    How many skills do you use in an average rotation in WoW vs an average rotation in ESO?



    comparison is meaningless. when you play for years you just dont stick with similar six plus six usable skills all the time while doing stuff its gets boring after. im not a newcomer for mmorpgs, played alot of them. ff14 skill system is glorious and balanced btw.

    Is there an actual statistic for that or are you just saying that.

    That for one. A little dated but the pop has not dwindled in a tad over a year. While WoWs been declining. Don't have the exact numbers for WoW any longer but last I saw was 6mil.

    nah, if that is the info then World of Warcraft still trumps Elder Scrolls Online as it is just "units sold"

    "Firor said that ESO has 8.5 million players based on copies of the game that have been sold."

    It's just another way of saying "Elder Scrolls has 8.5 millions accounts made."

    Whenever I see posters whining about 6 skills it immediately tells me they either have not played this game very much or they are not very conversant in game play.  There are 12 skills that can be used interchangeably as it is very easy to switch between your weapon sets.  Another poster who needs to learn to play .
