The game can be experienced from the third person, first person, or over the shoulder, with full first person receiving just as much support as the other views will. Character creation and development is class-based, with level progression being experience-based rather than skill-based. Combat will be in real-time, based on health, stamina and magicka, with a focus on the stamina-bar, which controls their ability to block, break, and interrupt enemy attacks. The player also controls the use of special abilities that come from their equipment or their class abilities.
The player is free to join any and all guilds in the game, and the guilds will ask you to perform certain tasks, such as destroying Dark Anchors—anchors that Molag Bal uses in his attempt to pull Tamriel into Coldharbour—to gain favor, rewards, and status with the guild. It will take an estimated 120 hours of play time to reach the level cap.
Player versus player combat primarily takes place in the province of Cyrodiil. All three factions are attempting to seize control of Cyrodiil and put one of their members on the throne. By seizing control of locations and stopping opposing factions from conquering their territory, a faction will earn faction-wide bonuses for its members and eventually be given the opportunity to assault the Imperial City and drive out the Daedra occupying it. Once a faction takes control of the Imperial City, the player who made the most contributions to the war for that faction will be crowned emperor.
