A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

I'm still playing;

Elder Scrolls Online (2014) $5.99 at -70%

I haven't bought a subscription the whole time I have been playing it, for months now and now that I understand enough systems I genuinely don't need it. That being said, I bought the High Isle Collection which is not longer on sale on Steam due to the new expansion. Collection's come with the game + several expansions, which adds a significant amount of content.

The combat is a little sub-par, but the voice acting is very good and there is a substantial amount of quests to do in the base game alone. It's more of a chill and play MMO, most PVE enemies are fairly easy.

There is no levels to the enemies, they are the same level as whatever you are, the level caps at lvl 50 with an alternate system after like in Destiny. This Champion Points (level) is applied to all characters that are lvl 50.

I'm sporadic with my gaming. Couple hours here, few hours there. It's a style of gameplay that has never lent itself to MMOPRGs. I neither commit enough time, nor do I really control when I'll have that time. I can't commit with a guild to a raid at x'oclock on Tuesday to take on that dungeon.

I've loved Skyrim though. Can you solo-play Elder Scrolls online and have a good time?

You can, the full voice acting makes solo play beneficial playing the story.
