- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

Yes, BUT, the DLCs are only small parts of the chapters (the large new zones). So you can't completely circumvent the chapters with ESO+ alone.
I might not recall this correctly but doesn't the base game include everything except the latest chapter and ESO+ give you all DLCs except the latest chapter?
Anyways, the amount of content is enormous. And the game itself is so good that I think if someone starts playing they will probably decide to buy the latest chapter too. With that amount of content they can easily wait for it to be on sale.
It didn’t for me when I tried it a few months ago. I bought the base game on sale for $5. It allowed me max level and access to the base game and zones but all DLC zones were locked out as well as a few classes were locked out.
