people who don't pay anything don't get to play at all...

you get what you pay for, in this case you pay a fair bit to get not so much.

By this logic people shouldn't be mad at all about pay-to-win games.

not really, they just shouldn't play them if they're ridiculous.

All games that aren't free are pay to win.

This is pay for frippery, as most real games that people moan about being P2W are.

Nirn.  It's called Nirn.

That's made up, Saddam. It's not a real word.

No, it's a real word.  The lore confirms this:

Elder Scrolls land isn't a place and therefore has no word. It's not real. Snap out of it, Saddam. Come join us in reality, where the Earth is flatter than ever.

Nirn.  It's called Nirn.

No. Tamriel is the land, Nirn is the planet, Mundus is the celestial/ oblivion plane.

Yes, Nirn is the planet.  Therefore, the equivalent of the Flat Earth Society would be the Flat Nirn Society.

And Skyrim belongs to us!

Yes, but is it the same Skyrim that we know and love from Skyrim?  Apparently they've taken a hatchet to the Cyrodil that was depicted in Oblivion.  What if they've done the same with Skyrim and Morrowind?

From what I've seen, the graphics aren't fantastic, but they're not 2007-quality either.  Don't be silly.

Halo 3 came out in 2007. Obviously a linear shooter is going to have better graphics than its contemporary RPG peers, but ESO has a seven year advantage, and it still looks about as good as Halo 3.

He'll have to wait a long time though, since the game's files amount to 30 gigabytes.

For a bunch of people that talk and talk about ESO lore, you guys sure aren't interested in playing the damn game.  >:(

Is it open beta?
If you are going to DebOOonK an expert then you have to at least provide a source with credentials of equal or greater relevance. Even then, it merely shows that some experts disagree with each other.
