The Elder Scrolls: Blades 12+

Update:
Bethesda have put a fair bit of work into rebalancing things. Graphics and variability in the environments in the jobs have greatly improved. Still unable to find key ingredients at times - e.g imp stools, a common ingredient for so many alchemy potions and enchantments. Keep on introducing new story material too please!

Original review:
I’m an Elder Scrolls fan from way back. I was really looking forward to this and many hours of play through varied game environments.
Unfortunately this game really is marked by greed. You can’t find any garlic (an essential ingredient for early health potions), the missions get steadily more difficult and the good gear is few and far between. So to play you have to buy gems. I’d far rather either pay up front or a subscription model than this - boring repetitive environments played over and over and being forced to buy gems to get anywhere.
Not happy and not impressed.

Honestly, I’m getting tired of the matchmaking balancing. I’m sick of facing other players who just keep dominating me every round. For a level 7 going up against a level 20, obviously this is a one sided battle, but it keeps matching me with super high levels. And it doesn’t help that I match against people who are on a different server and I lose because of the latency and lag (attacks and block are delayed so I get hit regardless if my block is up, as well as charging up a normal attack is delayed).. not fun anymore
And now I have a problem with the town interface.. there are no quest markers, no menu, no exclamation marks to tap on, cannot access the quest and challenges tab because it ain’t there, forcing me to close the game, open it, wait for 2 minutes to get to the main menu, do a mission, complete it, go to town and I’m stuck there.
I actually sort of like this game as iv already spent $15 on here.. game has soo much potential. Amazing game n graphics, but interface and matchmaking is starting to annoy me

I downloaded this and I love it I really do, but in the beginning the game does not require you to create an account with Bethesda. You just start playing. However one time when I reopened the app it had “logged out” and required me to religion in even though I didn’t have an account in the first place. So whatever I made an account and continued playing no issues. Now it has logged me out again and when I log in it takes me to the beginning. I have only had this game a couple of days and had reached level 14. Due to this issue I have now lost all of my game data ?? It’s definitely not worth starting again as it took me a while to get there. Pretty upset about this and don’t want to have to restart or in install. Please fix this.
