I might hold off until a little bit after release so that I can read some reviews and here some feedback from the players before purchasing. I usually do this with every game, but I think that the Elder Scrolls Online is definitely one I would like to wait on. I say this because of the great amount of money it will cost to play; between the cost of the actual game, the monthly subscription and the cost of Xbox Live, it's a good chunk of change. I've also heard that it might go free-to-play not long after release if they do not sell a lot of subscriptions, so that may be worth waiting for. We'll see.
