Been up to snow storms lol im ok overworked hon and you?

I'm doing good. Can't wait till summer. Soooo tired of all this snow. Whatcha been playing/gaming? Anything I might like? Downloaded DCUO. I think it's fun. Not the traditional MMO I'm use too but still fun. Just downloaded FF14. Beta starts Saturday and just finished Elder Scrolls Online beta last week. Too many new games coming. Don't know what to get :(

How was Elder Scrolls? I love that series...esp. Skyrim! :)

Never played the series but my husband has and love it as well. We both thought ESO was good. Not use to the targeting system. Hubby and I play MMO's together and we are not sure about this one just because of the phasing in a group. If we are not doing the exact same thing then we would have to wait till the other catches up. That would mean no exploring/playing/gathering on our own if the other isn't in the mood to play. We signed up for the PS4 beta as well and that's what we would buy it for if we get it. Our computers are out of date and I'm not planing on getting gaming rigs again. My thinking is that with the PS4, we wouldn't have to worry about the graphics/processor/etc becoming out of date or not running great after game updates/expansions. We hope to get in it one more time for the PC so we can try again. They make the beta's so short :(.

Historically, I played on consoles, but I discovered Steam's mega sales fairly recently, and now enjoy playing on the PC w/an Xbox controller. :) skyrim on that is too cool... love the open world, and quadrillion quests. :lol: I was hoping Elder Scrolls Online would be similar, with mmo added value.

With the beta, you are only allowed to do so much so I'm not sure how many quest there are yet or how long they are. When the NDA was lifted I did a lot of research to see what the press was saying when they got to test it for months. If I'm understanding it correct, they all say the world is big with lots to do. When we played, the beginning was a big boring to us but that's expected in just about every game when your just trying to escape :). My husband was telling me through out the beta how it reminds him of the series and now I can play it with him :). We still aren't sure if it's worth a monthly subscription for both of us and that's why we are hoping to get picked again. We've never played MMO's on consoles before so this is a first for us. This Saturday, Final Fantasy 14 is allowing everyone with a PS4 to download the beta and try it out so that will help us decide if we like playing console MMO's. We are keeping our fingers crossed because we are also looking forward to getting EverQuest Next for the PS4 as well :).

Lol I can't invite you to the beta silly. You need to sign up on their website.

Let Mary know that her and her family are in our prayers.
