Retail Game Product = The Full 20 GB Game on DVD(s)?

If yes, will you buy it, should I buy it?

Basically that's it, I did even emphasize that it isn't a digital copy, he confirmed. I'm currently on a tight schedule because of real life responsibilities, but I'll try to pass today to check it and get it.

ESO Launcher is giving me a hard time. Whenever I launch it, it gets stuck at loading forever...I've tried everything on the net and still can't seem to find a fix for it. :(

Yesterday It was working normally, I was patching 13gb, downloaded 3gb and then had to go work, so I paused the launcher and closed everything. When I came back, it won't let me continue, just sits there at Loading...

I have tried almost everything to get the launcher to work. It never did. Gets stuck on "Loading" screen forever. After a day and a half of trying almost everything there is on the internet, I finally gave up ... :'( *sigh*

If anyone got a clean patched game client, and got the time to meet up for me to copy them to my external. I'll be grateful.

I can do that

Thanks a lot! :D Sent you a PM.

Danzy wroteHi,

1- Has anyone tried to buy the imperial (pre paid) version from kinguin.net ?
2- Is there any possible to get the pre paid version in Lebanon ? If yes, then where ?
3- Where is it possible to purchase the regular version ?
4- Sorry if I missed a reply that might contain an answer to one of these following questions. Sue me for being tired to read >.>

Danke.

1-2- I'm sorry, I don't understand what you mean by "pre paid version". You mean Digital edition? If that's the case then it doesn't matter from which website you buy it from (eso main website, pcandparts, etc...), as long as you don't mind downloading 30gb for the client. I never tried kinguin.net, so can't help you there.

3- If by regular version you mean the standard edition retail box (DVDs), then Nino has one for 80$. Phone: 01739999. Not sure about Virgin Megastore, you can check.

I don't know anyone in Lebanon that sells the Imperial edition retail box, but I believe it would be quite expensive. Unlike the digital copies, you end up paying extra for the shipment of the hard copies.

Hope that answered your questions to some extent.

ali.bassam wroteBadieh where can we meet you at 2 PM?

If I get the game from you, all that's left is the Serial Number (CD Key) right? Which I can get for 60$ from PCandPARTS, right? So how is the game? It's fast on Lebanese Internet?

Hey Ali!

I'll PM you my phone number, we can talk on whatsapp.

Yes, once you have the client, all you need is the serial number to activate your account, however you need to make sure you have a payment method for the account to be fully activated. Be it Credit Card, Debit Card, or pre-paid card. The game is fine, sometimes I encounter some lag or lag spikes, considering the server is in the US. Just remember the client is US as well.

tt400 wroteI watched Joe's Angry review and he said the game is completely not worth it and very average. Any truth to that?

Well, not worth it in what sense? So far I'm level 19 and I'm having a blast! I'll tell you the ups and downs that I found so far.

Pros:
1- Questing: Quite enjoyable. Just like elder scrolls series. Your questing affects the area around you. Unlike the usual MMOs where they ask you to kill x number or bring y number of items. ESO questing got nice interesting stories behind them.
2- Crafting: For the first time ever, I feel like crafting is quite useful while leveling, and you can craft the best items in game.
3- Achievements: Just the way I love it, lots of small stuff to do. Some are large, like 200 types of enemy or so, but most of them are like exploring areas, finding lorebooks, doing dungeons, pvping, and such. Very fun if you were an achievement whore like myself.
4- Class: You can be whatever you want. A sorcerer tank, or a dragon knight healer. You do need to work for it though. Love the diversity.
5- Updates: The team is working hard to fix all the bugs and make the game smoother, not only that, they are delivering new contents soon! Such as Dyes, adventure areas, and raids.
6- Exploring: This is where the fun comes, lots of stuff to explore, world bosses to defeat, and opened gates to close. :D

Cons:
1- Combat Animation: Feels a bit heavy and cloggy. Should be addressed in the next upcoming patch.
2- Death is punishing: When you die, the repair cost is a bit much, plus you either need a soul gem to resurrect or you are bound to resurrect at the nearest wayshrine.
3- Resources nodes and chests are not instanced: This means first come first served. I didn't like this at first, but then they become abundant. So it is fine.

This is a summary of what I found so far, didn't do pvp yet, so I can't judge that.
