ESO's near-instantaneous weapon-swapping is a huge part of its higher-level gameplay, but here, it's awkward to take your fingers off the main action buttons to switch from a sword to a bow in the middle of combat.Įlsewhere, other key elements are buried in the user interface or complicated by it. That is, with one massive exception: Under the current scheme, you activate crouch/sneak mode by pressing down the right thumbstick, while you swap weapons by clicking the 'west' button on the D-pad. The minimalist action bar with five ability slots is well-suited to gamepad play, and most of the abilities are intuitively mapped as well. On the gameplay front, I'm happy to report that ESO's combat is as well suited to console gameplay as I predicted it would be way back in February of last year. Now I wish I'd splurged before importing my account. It's a good deal, although I couldn't help but be bummed that all my premium 'crowns' from months of playing for ESO Plus (essentially the subscription fee reborn) didn't carry over as well, although some items I'd bought from the Crown Store cash shop with them in previous weeks did.

The endgame zone of Craglorn is a ghost town, which leads me to believe that very few PC players made the jump to consoles on day one, or at least with their accounts intact.

I played heavily when I reviewed The Elder Scrolls Online for PC last year, so I took advantage of the option to import my PC character data to the console, and thus my Dragonknight is romping around Craglorn at the de facto level cap of Veteran Rank 14. Most of the people I’ve seen logged into Elder Scrolls Online’s Xbox One servers appear to be experiencing it for the first time with brand-new characters I, on the other hand, am seeing it (for now) from the opposite extreme of the leveling process.
