I can't believe ELDER SCROLLS ONLINE of all fucking things gave us the best thing in the entire tes franchise next to Morrowind and Daggerfall.
It is a massive love letter to Kirkbride schizolore, it has the alien'ish setting that I've been CRAVING since Shivering Isles, the quests and the lore are genuinely great, Sotha Sil dialogue is PHENOMENAL, visuals are gorgeous(a rare time when ESO has a distinct art direction!) and soundtrack is blissful.
If only all of that hasn't been stuck in mediocre MMO, it is a crime that borderline peak fiction like this is held back by its genre.

As more Elder Scrolls Online DLC and the middle chapter of the Daedric War storyline, Clockwork City is pretty good. The mechanical look of the area isn't really to my liking but building a whole zone and city with the Dwemer tileset is something new for ESO. Unfortunately, it isn't as complex of a structure as you think it should be in the lore even they did try to add some intricacies to the layout of the underground areas. I quite enjoyed the main storyline and really liked the ending and the writing of Sotha Sil. The final conversation with him might be some of the best writing in the game.
