Top three are: The First Descendant, Elder Scrolls Online, and just started Lords Of The Fallen (which is pretty tough TBH).

I was very very hesitant on ESO. But it's probably the best Elder Scrolls game we'll get. Playing with friends is a blast, as well as wondering around doing random quests in each "country".

I tried it out because I love the setting and we've obviously been somewhat starved for anything else Elder Scrolls, but I just couldn't get into it. It felt like it never rewarded me for exploring like the main series does. There's never something cool to find that's just hidden out of the way.

I did also feel a bit miffed that the Northern Elsweyr story (the new one when I played, and the reason I wanted to play) was just the Skyrim civil war again, but without even the interesting idea of the rebel faction being nationalists against an empire. It was very little to do with anything about Elsweyr, and then dragons became the focal point again anyway

Obviously each to their own. I do see the appeal of it. It's just not for me

Very understandable and valid points of view on the game.
