What are some things you think this game does best? Even if you dont think the game is for you feel free to add.

For me.

It feels like an mmo but doesnt have a grind to it that i usually notice after a couple hours.

Its feels like elder scrolls. It is captured perfect.

PVP

No restrictions. Meaning i can pick up any weapon or decide to craft without feeling like im behind because i have not been doing it.

Quests. Plan and simple they are fun. Sometimes so much that i hate to see certain quest lines end.

The perfect way that i can explain this game is its like if beth released a game inbetween oblivion and skyrim. A little lf both to make something awesome that you can play with friends.
Those are mine. I say they pulled it off and went above and beyond what i thought would be a mess.

Grind Free as you stated, no nameplates above Player's Heads (man, thats awesome), no target need to range abilties/spells, you just aim and bam! .. uhhh its late here... i can't think more... but thats it.

Fails

Caters to wanderers like myself, while the hold my hand types are squealing about having nothing to do I'm running across all kinds of random npc's or situations off the beaten paths to check out. Win.

I think ESO is the best Elder Scrolls ever. I love the design and the graphics and in the first time in my ES history I don't get lost and bored by exploring. The story is much more a leitmotif...

No Nameplates!! Cant say how much I agree with you!! I am so happy I don't have to see "Master Deathcookie Optimus Bonerificus, founding father of Goblin Meatball Harvetsters, of Balmorth" anymore!!

Other things:

Lockpicking....love it

Treasure maps....awesome

Skyshards, found em all with the hints so far!

Useful items looted from others peoples bedroom cabinets! Skillbooks, recipes, etc

Abundance of Mudcrabs makes me feel like my lifelong goal of pest control on Nirn wasn't a bad choice.

Watching mobs turn into ash on my crits will never lose its value in my mind....and it makes sure we don't die of plague from rotting corpses everyone leaves about.

Crafting

And mostly...the way my character looks at me, dips his finger in his bowl of soup, tastes it....smiles and nods with satisfaction!! Such a good cook!
