P. S if you think this game isnt going to make a ton of cash your nuts. Im not saying its gonna be a hit that last for 10 years( I hope it is ), but they will make a boat load of cash. I just hope the melee combat is better .. much better.
The combat's going to be the same as every other MMO. Click abilities from your hotbar and wait for cooldowns to end. Rinse and repeat. Read the Game Informer article and see for yourself. Also, the game is third-person only. And has classes instead of the freeform leveling system. |

Welp...it's a typical MMO. It pretends to be doing something different but it's just variations on the same old shit that's in WoW. The article even says WoW style mechanics.

Yeah, but they couldn't monetize co-op enough hence the MMO.

| From the information that leaked, it doesn't look like it will be a "cookie-cutter MMO," they are trying to put an Elder Scrolls spin on it. But it's still nowhere near what the fans' idea of a TES MMO would/should be, which is basically just Skyrim with more people. |

Where's that guy from the last thread who called this the WoW Killer? I demand you show yourself and commit ritual suicide in front of us.
According to GI: Classes, no player housing, etc. Zero sandbox. It's just another WoW clone. I hate to say it, but I was right, they've thrown everything TES is about out the window in a petty cash-in attempt.

Maybe its planned for the next-gen consoles next year. I just can't see them passing up all those potential sales. They made it clear long ago they really don't care about the PC market. And from the way the GI article reads it sure as shit sounds like its being designed for consoles first and foremost. I'll honestly be *VERY* surprised if it's not the case.

TOTAL FAIL. We already have countless cookie cutter MMOs... just total fail. Way to take a great world and dumb it down... I just don't understand the world these days...
I'm not sure you know what cookie cutter or dumbing down mean.
You have no idea what this game will be like. It's a safe bet it won't be cookie cutter, as making it a "WoW clone" or something like that would be completely unlike anything Elder Scrolls. As for dumbing it down...I don't know how putting it into the MMO genre would do that. If anything, it'll have to become more complex to compare favorably with other games in the genre. |

Bethsoft doing anything anymore with the PC as the lead platfom will never happen. They're talking about the PC/OSX version here but I have a feeling the lead platform will be the 360. Oh yeah, you can count on some sort of consolization for this. May I take an arrow to the knee if it's not the case!
It would be a big risk. Every console-focused MMO since FFXI has fallen flat on its face. |

Well it's the same engine as SW:TOR (Hero Engine), so I wouldn't expect too much... especially after the company that made the engine killed their own MMO Project, and is barely alive. |

PC Only? |

I'm surprised MMOs are only on Windows or Macs. There's a fortune to be made with MMOs on consoles if you can get Microsoft and Sony to play along, and Elder Scrolls is ideally positioned to make this jump. MS and Sony would make a fortune too from a F2P game. Want a Daedric sword? That'll be 600 MS points.
If ESO was on the PS3 and Xbox as well as the PC, preferably playing together, World of Warcraft would have massive competition. |

I think the money I might have spent on this will go to Kickstarter stuff instead.
I just don't see how the developer is going to make this fresh. |

Honestly I just have no interest in this. But I should also state I'm not a big Elder Scrolls fan either. I personally find the whole IP rather generic & boring. A franchise like the Witcher has always peaked my interest more, I would not want Witcher MMO I'm just saying that IP & type of fantasy is way more interesting to me. Now a Fallout MMO....I'm all ears....  |
