Pretty self-explanatory. As I've never really had a good PC for games, I planned to get ES:O for Xbox One when it was first announced - but thanks to the delays, my interest ebbed away over time. It's still something at the back of my mind, though, so I was wondering if anyone knows how many people are even playing it (on either console). I mean, if there are only a couple thousand people who even have it, is there any point in me getting it?

The NA Xbox megaserver is pretty packed, by all accounts.

Interesting. Really my main reason for not wanting to play it is because of time concerns (I have played just about 5-10 hours of video games in total since mid-February, in an effort to be more productive), not game-related worries - but if there actually is a good amount of people, then that's reassuring if I end up seriously thinking about giving it a go.

"A good amount of people" is an understatement. I can't believe how fast some of these people have leveled. For weeks, I saw no one in Craglorn. Suddenly, an explosion of veterans and now I'm up to my armpits in players. At least on Xbox One NA, at any rate.

I'm playing on the Playstation 4 and so far I'd say there's a decent amount of players. By decent I mean that I see a good amount of people running around when I'm in one of the main cities and will sometimes run into players when I'm out in the world.

However, I have also never been asked to join in on a group and have not been able to find a group through the search function. Keep in mind that I am only in the beginning stage of the game (my highest leveled character is only at level 10 so far) and I'm sure this will change as I progress further.

Hope that helps and makes sense.

There's very little need to group at that point in the game, and the quest instancing can actually make it quite difficult to even try on the starter islands.

Just bought the game on PS4 and there is a lot of traffic in game, all cities I've been to have a healthy number of players running around. Even out in the wilderness I see players.
