This game and Final Fantasy 14 are my all time favourite MMOs, and I highly recommend them both. This one especially for roleplaying, PvE both solo and all the way up to high end raid content, and some of the PvP (Cyrodiil and some Battleground content is fun as hell with the right builds).

Player housing is good, crafting is good, quests are diverse and omnipresent, well written, all voice acted. Lots of content including a lot of zone firsts for ES games. Lots of character customization and class/build customization. Broad mod support. Meaningful racial passives. Diverse armor sets. Honestly, aside from the odd bug, the only things this game is missing is a better guild trader/auction system with a search bar by default and capes (which were removed in beta because Havoc Engine has a few issues).

Buy the base game first and see how you like it; no mandatory sub fee, just the base game cost which goes on sale often and you're good to go forever. Lots of content to start with, more to get later also on sale or during crown store monthly deals.

You owe it to yourself to experience the thrill of discovering your starter planet intends to freeze you to death.

And then discovering how to survive in spite of it, and clawing your way to the stars and better planets, filled with mystery and adventure.
