I do not see any advertisemant unless I myself go to a game site or something, which is enough in a sense because those people that go there are the most likely to buy it ^^

Yep needs to be more. I remember when WoW was advertising on TV every day (Ozzy Osbourne springs to mind), and that was in the UK - I've seen nothing for ESO

I wonder does it need much advertisemant, they had like 3 million people sign up for beta and of course not all of them will buy it, but word of mouth has spread about it be it good or bad, the Elder Scrolls has a pretty big world wide fanbase, of course not all of them will be interested in the online game, but I am sure we will see a few ad's around launch, then who knows

There will be plenty of advertising nearer launch.

They should show those Cinematic Trailers in theaters and on TV. I've seen other games do it.

I don't even remember how I became aware of ESO. Was it the sticker I got with skyrim a few months back? It very well could have been!

If it wasn't for a personal interest in The Elder Scrolls to begin with, I don't think I would have noticed this.

I've seen many ads for it on the sides of my YouTube videos and pop-ups during the video, but not really video ads for the game before videos or on TV.

I voted other because there's to many other things to take into account in my opinion.

A global game, I might not see it advertised in the UK but it might be being advertised everywhere in the US.

It may be that TES has such a good name amongst gamers, they don't need to waste money on TV adverts.

What I do know is,

I get a daily email from MMORPG and for ages, almost every forum thread listed on the bottom of it is ESO related.
I belong to a non official Lotro forum and for a while ESO has been discussed in their "other MMO" section and yesterday they gave ESO it's own section
Last beta, a very very popular non gaming UK web site (although it has a gaming section) called Digital Spy on their main page had an article about ESO and they were giving away beta keys (OK only a few compared to other places)
Any gaming site I seem to go on the web I keep coming across ESO online, (but of course I'm looking out for it)

Would be interesting to know how many beta players they had, Maybe they are happy they have enough that they don't need to advertise further?

Maybe they want the game running for a couple of months so any unforeseen server bugs etc are completely ironed out before they advertise it to the broader gamer?
