I didn't play ESO at all, so I can't really comment on it's similarity. The best description I've seen of the combat style so far is like a more forgiving Dark Souls. You really can't button mash and faceroll through stuff. You get staggered if you take hits, so you need to block and dodge and time your attacks or you'll have a bad time.

The classless system is also appealing. Changing armor/weapon types at will (weapon damage/perks/skills tied to weapon proficiency that needs to be leveled up) gives some flexibility in playstyle if you want it without having to roll 15 alts.
