The Elder Scrolls Online

Story

It takes place in all the previous parts of the continent of Tamriel way, but the story is not at all in connection with the stories of the previous games. The game is set about a thousand years before the events in Skyrim. The main enemy is Daedraprince Mogal Bal, who wants to take control of the whole of Tamriel.

Alliances

"Our supplies dwindle. Our trade routes are shut down. Our people sudder. Why? Because a pretend sits upon the Ruby Throne.Let us take up arms! Let the fields of Cyrodiil run red with the blood of our fallen enemies! But let us spare the lives of a few, so that they may return to their homelands to tell their fellows the fate they met at the hands of the Daggerfall Covenant. One land! One Emperor! Who among you will stand with me?" - A letter from High King Emeric.

Daggerfall Covenant is an alliance of nortwest Tamriel. There are three races, Bretons, Orcs and Redguards. Bretons live in High Rock. Because they were once elven imposed, some elven blood runs in their veins. That´s why they also good as magic. Bretons are talented merchants, craftsmen, and good wizards. Redguards are darker skinned people of Hammerfell. They are very talented warriors, and they are born to battle. They live in a desert (Alikir Desert). Redguards have been taught that only the strongest will survive. Orcs are well-know as barbarians, they are also called beasts. They are greatest blacksmiths in Tamriel. Their weapons and armors are best quality in Tamriel.

"Before Ysgramor led the Nord people south, our ancestors flourished in the frozen continent of Atmora, and to this day our people prefer the bitter climes of northern Tamriel. The Dark Elves abide in Morrowind, a harsh land of ashfall and perpetual earthquakes. The Argonians endure the treacherous and impenetrable depths of Black Marsh. The alliance between our races was born in dark times, when Nord, Dunmer and free Argonians fought as one to repel the invasion of the Akaviri slavemasters. Our greatest strength is the adversity we have overcome. Our resolve is glacial, our might is forged in fire, and our courage, cultivated by the beasts of the jungle. We are Ebonheart. We are as one. And by this, our victory is assured."-A letter from Nord Jorunn.

Ebonheart Pact is an alliance of northeast Tamriel. Dark Elves and Nords has a long history of wars, and Argonians were enslaved by Dark Elves. The strength of these three people makes the Ebonheart Pact a fighting force of extraordinary power.

"I have no hatred for the races of Man, but they are young. Like all children, they are driven by emotion. They lack the wisdom that comes with age. I would sooner place an Altmer infant on the Ruby Throne than surrender Tamriel to their capricious whims. The Altmer, the Bosmer and the Khajiit share the common traits of intelligence, patience and reason. We do not seek riches or plunder. Domination is not our goal, nor is the acclamation of power for its own sake. Today we make our stand. Today we take back the Ruby Throne, which is ours by ancient right and the blessings of the Divines. Stand with us."- A letter from Queen Ayrenn.

Aldmeri Dominion is an alliance with no humans. High Elves, Wood Elves and Khajiits are the Dominion. They say the human race is driven by emotion, so there are no human races. (You can join the Dominion if you got Collectors or Imperial edition, even if you are a human.)

Reception

Since the game is an MMO, unlike other parts of the series, some did not like the whole idea.Especially when the game will have to pay 13e a month, and some say it is too expensive.Gamereactor give it 6-7, which is quite good. IGN give it 7.8 which is good too. Metacritics metascore to the game is 72. So the game is not perfect, but it's good.
