I have become increasingly of the opinion that may be a would’ve been better if they remade the game in the creation engine and went the route of Fallout 76 where The amount of players in a zone were more limited. Sure the combat is touch screen swinging and cannot see your character hand, but spells & abilities aren’t as over the top bordering on cartoonish as many of the MMO abilities are (looking at you necromancer summonable tombstones) I actually have more dialogue choices that define my character. (The game has gotten better about the painted on look, but it still shows)īy the nine, the mobile game has rag doll physics!

The armor and clothing in Blades actually look like something you are wearing as opposed to something that is painted onto your character body. I find it concerning when a mobile game, that doesn’t even have open world, does a better job of capturing the elder scrolls atmosphere than the MMO does. Got a new phone so I’ve been playing ES:Blades, now it makes me question even more why ESO went the route they did with their hero engine and playable characters that feel like miniatures.
