The environment in this zone is warmer than that of The Ebonheart Pact, but not tropical.
a guy admiring a statue, and couple in love, a pesky dog, and so-on. By that I mean that there is more everyday stuff going on. Genrally, playing in this zone feels more "human" to me. This causes the overall feeling to be less serious than in The Ebonheart Pact, but not as light-hearted as The Aldmeri Dominion. By that I mean that the three races are unified under a great leader, and each wishes to be in the alliance. serious as in serious characters, not as in more hardcore players.īretons, Redguard, and Orcs compose the Daggerfall Covenant, and this alliance is the opposite of The Ebonheart Pact. Of the three alliances, The Ebonheart Pact feels the most serious to play. Interacting with non-questline NPCs in the zone definitely gives the sense that Tamriel is under threat, with many characters having a miltiary personality-all business. The Pact is barely holding together, and with the scheme of Molag Bal now in play, the Pact is being stressed even further.Ĭombine that with the cold northern climate that makes up the environment of the starting area and we have the makings for some pretty deep characters. Overall, the feeling you get when playing in the zone is one of tension. The Nords are conquerers, the Argonians are guerrila fighters, and the Dark Elves are, well, Dark Elves. That alone should give you an idea as to how this alliance feels to play, but allow me to clarify. The three races that make up the Ebonheart Pact are the Nords, Dark Elves, and Argonians, and none of them really like one-another. So, with that said, here's my view on how each alliance and zone feels to play. Given that you can customize any character/race to play how you want, it seems to me that playing in the environment and zone that suits you the most is probably the most important choice you'll make early in your TESO adventure.
I say this because your gameplay experience, especially early in the game, varies greatly between each alliance's zone. I suggest that choosing an alliance is almost more important than choosing your race. (If you do want information on the history and lore of the alliances, though, here's a link). However, I think it's safe to assume that you're here because you want to know what it's like to play in each alliance moreso than for the history and lore of each alliance. In TESO, there are three alliances that you can choose from: The Daggerfall Covenant, The Ebonheart Pact, and The Aldmeri Dominion.Įach of the alliances has a rich history and tonnes of lore, especially regarding how each alliance was formed, why there is so much tension between the alliances (see the PVP guide for more information on the Alliance War), and more.
The first decision a player has to make when getting started playing The Elder Scrolls Online is which alliance that they want to play.
