Bethesda Games BF Sale

Discounts and end dates vary.

This page does not link well to the titles on sale, so if you are after a Bethesda title, maybe do a direct search.  i.e. no link to Elder Scrolls Online, but I picked up “Gold Road” expansion for about $13.75 (reg $40).

I didn’t know there were other ESO players in this community (for reference, my in-game account is @gremlinsgaming, and I usually play at very early am in the North American server)

Fanatical.com has deeper discounts on this sale

I picked up the Gold Road collection (I was missing only two chapters, Necrom and Gold Road, but it was worth getting the collection at $17.09 minus a 5% personal coupon I had)

I bought the last couple ESO expansions from CD Keys.  After a sale starts, they usually catch up and have a lower price.  YMMV I guess, but I did some research and they appear to be legit.  My understanding is that they arbitrage currency/price differences for their stock.  Just make sure what you buy is licensed for the country you want to log in from 😛  Gold Road expansion IIRC was $16 from ESO and about $14.25 from CDK.  I also usually check Fanatical 😁  I am BluesCat on ESO  Lately just playing enough to grab the tickets.

I got Gold Road last week for $13.75.

I am @Superabbit. My main guild is Silverlight Brotherhood.

Something I’ve bee trying to figure out: I bought the Necrom chapter update last year. It said that all previous chapters were included. I did get access to Blackwood and some other zones, but not Southern Elsweyr, Murkmire, The Reach, Darklands, or Gold Coast.

How does all that work? I understand that some dungeons and trials are only available by purchasing DLC packages (or ESO+ subscription), but what about zones? Why are some zones included with these “chapters,” but other, older zones remain unavailable?

Cool! I love Elder Scrolls Online. All about PvE and housing.

I’m currently working my way through the quests that grant access to scribing. I’ve usually found the questing in ESO to be not very compelling, but these seem to be more interesting than the usual things where you have to fetch some item or other or act as a messenger for a string of NPC’s.

For a given chapter you can get either an update (only that new chapter) or the collection (all chapters up until the one being purchased).

In addition to the chapters there is DLC Game Packs that you can access with a subscription or you can unlock individually using crowns

@superabbit It sounds like you actually got the collection and you’re missing the DLC Game Packs

Friend request accepted. Thank you!

@EusebioRZ covered the “Chapters” vs DLC.  I don’t have all the DLC but I have the ones that are larger maps like Murkmire, Gold Coast, etc.  When I was more “hooked” on ESO I took ESO+ for a year and after that used my banked currency Crowns? to buy the maps I wanted.  Sometimes on sale.  They actually gave a couple away for logging in X times in a month.  Now I don’t play all that much except for going for tickets during events.  Solstice coming up! LOL.  I mentioned to @Superabbit in a past PM that I have developed a sensitivity to screen motion that keeps me from participating with groups.  I can’t go rushing through a dungeon for more than about 10-15 minutes before I have to bail.  Therefore I tend to play solo PVE.  My daughter plays too, but we don’t sync up that often.  She inherited my gaming bug and works in the industry.

@Brian – Invite sent (sorry if the message looks weird, I fatfingered and sent it half-way through typing “Hello”)

Also, I saw that you got Hogwarts Legacy. I played it last year and it was fun. I was learning about streaming and recorded the playthrough: https://www.twitch.tv/gremlinsmusic/videos (down the page, you’ll see Hogwarts Legacy right below the “Recent highlights and uploads”). The first one came out with pretty bad audio, but eventually I managed to improve it, setting up a better processing chain and switching to a headset (a stable sound source will often have a more positive contribution than a collection of plugins)

Thanks for the invites!  I apologize for my ignorance.  I was expecting a PM in ESO.  I do so little “social” interaction on that platform that I didn’t realize invites were part of the chat system.  I have received them “live” before but was not aware that they were stored.  Anyway  👌
