"What game drew you into TES, and if not, what has you interested in ESO?"

I'm so sure they've already done this one...

It all started here for me: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Elder_Scrolls:_Arena

Technically The Elder Scrolls: Arena and The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall, and I love them, but I was young. The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind was phenomonal to me and I was honestly mature enough to apreciate every aspect of it.

Oblivion. I took at a chance on it because at the time there was literally no game on the PS3 which have a story longer than 8 hours and the summer ahead had no releases whatsoever. Turned out that I would be coming back and playing that game for the few years. ￡45 well spend.
