The Elder Scrolls Online: Minimum vs Ultra Compared -- The Game Looks Gorgeous

"The Elder Scrolls Online is without a doubt one of the best looking games out right now."

It really does look gorgeous....

...For 2009.

...If time travel was a thing.

I'm playing the early access at maximum settings, and it has some pretty nice scenarios (in the average of MMORPGs, there are others like FFXIV that trounce it visuals-wise), but characters are borderline nasty.

Maybe 2008 but over-all you are CORRECT!

ESO looks like crap compared to Tera Rising, Kingdom Come: Deliverance, Guild Wars 2, and a few others.

Gameplay/content/accessibility >>> graphics when it comes to MMOs. Gameplay is always more important than graphics but in an MMOs case having anybody access it makes it better to build a user base than catering to the PC elites who whine about graphics.

Good looks great and plays great but haters will never have an openmind about anything. Tell them the sky is blue and they will argue its green.

yet korean MMO's looks 10 times better already..... if only they would get released for the rest of us :C

Yeah the topic of the article is on how the graphics look and you start rambling about haters and how other aspects of the game take priority. We aren't being haters we're just discussing the contents of the article. No one said the game was shit they just said it looks like shit. There is a clear difference.

This is gorgeous for someone who has never played PC games.
FF14ARR totally destroys this (if we talk solely about graphics).

TESO doesn't look great, it needs some serious boost to some of it's textures.

But FFXIV? That looks far worse than TESO in just about every regard.

[KrisButtar]

ESO looks great. I think FF14 does look better for a MMORPG but doesn't have the customization that ESO has. Trade offs I guess

Wildstar > Eso

A polished turd is still a turd
