ESO Beta

Anyone interested in playing the ESO beta this weekend? And it's always more fun to not play by yourself. :p I played one of the earlier betas and I really liked it, but I want to play again this weekend to decide whether or not I want to actually buy the game.
Apparently curse.com has extra ESO beta keys if you don't have one, at least according to my beta invite email.

Thanks for the heads-up. I find it highly unlikely I'll play the game upon release (I refuse to pay subscription fees for a game I've already paid for), so this'll be my only chance to try it out unless they end up going F2P in a year or two.

Reviving this because there is no point making a new thread.
I'm curious about what you guys think about this game. I've received another Beta key for this week-end, like probably most of those who applied for it.
Personally, I'm not interested.
From a quick play, the game seemed kind of okay, but definitely not worth a subscription. I was not impressed, and felt no interest in the potential things to come.
I also think that having the Imperial race being playable only if you purchase the collector edition is a very bad and stupid move.
What's you guys' opinion on this?

As a ritualistic Nord, the Imperial thing has no effect on me (though I do think it's very stupid). The game is fun, and feels very true to the Elder Scrolls formula with only the minimum required changes to make it an MMO, but I feel that there's no game worth paying $15 a month to play. I'll be all over it if it goes free to play, but until then, I'm only interested in it during the beta periods.

So I actually pre-ordered the game already... I'm not a bit MMO connoisseur, so I don't have all that much to compare ESO to. I do really like the character customization and the vibe. I didn't get too far yet, but I think it's pretty promising. I'll probably be playing the beta again this weekend, so if anyone else is gonna test it out, hit me up.

Yeah, the Imperial thing has technically no effect on me either has I tend to be Khajiits in these games (most likely to no one's surprise). In fact, I find the human race boring in any game that has it. However, the fact that they're trying to pull this dirty move makes me wonder what kind other tricks they may come up with in the near or distant future.
As with Archem, if the game ever goes free to play, I may eventually start playing. Until then, I'll stick to other games, as levelling a character for two days every couple weeks is not something that interests me. One could say that I'd see the game grow and all that stuff, but I'm already doing this at work. I'll stick to complete products once I'm home.
