The Elder Scrolls Online (ESO) - Standard Edition is the base version of the massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) set in the Elder Scrolls universe. Heres what you need to know: Whats Included in the Standard Edition? Base Game: Access to the entire original game, including: - All faction zones (Aldmeri Dominion, Daggerfall Covenant, Ebonheart Pact). - The main story quests (The Vestige, Molag Bals invasion of Tamriel). - Hundreds of hours of quests, dungeons, and exploration. - PvP in Cyrodiil (Alliance War) and Battlegrounds. - Four classes at launch (Dragonknight, Sorcerer, Nightblade, Templar). Whats NOT Included? Expansion Chapters (e.g., Morrowind, Summerset, Elsweyr, Greymoor, Blackwood, High Isle, Necrom). DLCs (e.g., Thieves Guild, Dark Brotherhood, Orsinium). Latest Classes (Necromancer & Arcanist require expansions). Gameplay Features Play Solo or with Friends: Many quests can be done alone, but group dungeons & trials require teams. No Subscription Required: Unlike the original launch, ESO now follows a buy-to-play model (optional ESO Plus for DLC access & perks). Cross-Platform Play? No, but some platforms support cross-play (e.g., PC/Mac share servers, consoles have separate servers). Where to Buy? PC/Mac: Steam, Epic Games, or Bethesdas website. Consoles: PlayStation Store, Xbox Store. Often goes on sale for 1020 (sometimes even cheaper). Should You Get It? Good for new players who want to explore Tamriel without committing to expansions. Huge amount of content even without DLCs. If you want the latest zones/classes, consider the Necrom Collection (includes all major expansions).

The War Within brings so much fresh content to WoW. The new zones are absolutely stunning and the storyline is engaging. Been playing for 15 years and this expansion reignited my passion for the game.
The new raid content is fantastic with challenging mechanics. However, there are still some bugs that need to be ironed out. Overall a solid expansion that keeps me coming back for more.
