Do you need eso+?

You don't need ESO Plus (The Elder Scrolls Online's subscription) to play the base game, as it offers plenty of content, but it provides major quality-of-life benefits, especially the unlimited craft bag for crafting materials, which many players find essential for convenience, making it highly recommended if you play often. For new players, it's best to try the base game first to see if you enjoy it before committing to the subscription for DLC access, crown allowance, and bonuses.

Is an ESO subscription worth it?

Yes, the ESO Plus subscription is widely considered worth it for dedicated players due to its massive quality-of-life improvements, especially the unlimited Craft Bag, plus access to most DLC, monthly crowns, and other bonuses like doubled bank space and XP boosts, though it's not strictly necessary to enjoy the base game's huge amount of content. For casual players, it's an optional upgrade; for crafters and completionists, it's almost essential for avoiding inventory headaches.

Is it worth to play ESO 2025?

Yes, it's worth coming back, especially if you're primarily a solo quester. There's been loads of content added since those base game faction quests that you've done. It's hit or miss like any game but the quests remain something people want more of.

Is ESO worth it without expansions?

Other than some minor crafting setbacks, there is a ton to do without DLCs. Very hard to get through it all. the starting main quest is still the main quest even if you buy DLC, so I would say starting off with DLC isn't worth it. If you think you'll get ESO+ later (not recommended to start), do not buy DLCs.

Is mmorpg a dying genre?

MMOs aren't exactly "dying," but the genre has matured, shifted from mainstream dominance to a dedicated niche, faces stiff competition for player time, and struggles with innovation, leading to player fatigue and preference for established titles or other game types. While big names like WoW and FFXIV thrive, new MMOs often fail to capture large audiences due to high time commitments, the rise of faster-paced games, and a perceived lack of compelling new experiences, with many players preferring the familiar comfort of older games or finding new ones too grindy.
