    Going with the crash and burn crew here. I've not played any Elder Scrolls game since Morrowind (and I played all except Skyrim, still waiting for when I have the time to invest in searching mods for that) without heavy modding involved.
    I'm not sure Beth *can* put out a polished, final game.

    The only thing i would have wanted was a coop mode for skyrim, wich i would only play with people who roleplay propperly

    This is gonna end badly.

    The individual games, with their stories is so far from each other in the timeline.
    You will only get a MMO based on one game, and not the whole series.

    Morrowind was easily the best part of TES.

    what can I say, guilty

    Morrowind was the first rpg I played...and no matter how much you try you can never duplicate that first experience of discovery.

    edit: they promised the trailer for this morning but I cant find it anywhere. They also promised a screenshot for later today.

    If they make a classless mmo where you can learn/train every skill in the game (like you could in their games) and everything dropping when you die combined with spells and arrows you have to aim and active shield blocking and fighting it could make for a very fun mmo. Without those things, it really isn't an elder scrolls mmo. Add sieges to that and things become interesting.

    One thing, why is there never a game where you could block spells with your shield. I really like the idea of a warrior raising a shield and a fireball hitting it and bursting into flames without harming the warrior. I guess a mod could be made for skyrim but it would require more skills then your usual retexturing...
    I'll keep the preemptive bitterness, much safer

    At least they plan to use gw2-ish ability system.

    they are from the article linked by omeg above. Where they also explain that it actually is generic fantasy mmo no.627362

    The only notable things are that it has progression without quest givers where you just stumble into quests. But guildwars 2 has done that much better with its dinamic events.
    Mass pvp with 200 people killing each other, and whomever has the best score is crowned emperor. So even if someone actually devised tactics and organized the whole thing and lead the battle, the dude that did the most damage becomes emperor. But even this is already done by gw2 in its WvWvW.

    As I said...disappointment...

    Decided to list the main points for people who don't want to read all of the game informer article

    • Standard classes and XP based MMO progression.
    • States it will have some "randomness" with miniquests appearing along with normal WoW-like quest line. (Vague and Undefined)
    • Game is set in the 5th or 6th century, Second Era, before the Septim dynasty is established. (That's about a thousand years before skyrim)
    • Molag Bol is the big baddie, and he's stolen your soul. (That's suppose to be the in-game explanation for being able to reincarnate yourself after death)
    • Three player factions:
      • Ebonheart Pact- Nords, Dunmer, and Argonians. (Yeah, that makes total sense lore-wise)
      • Aldermi Dominion- Altmer, Bosmer, and Khajiits
      • Daggerfell Covenant- Bretons, Redguards, Orcs.
    • All of Tamriel is included in the game to some extent, but not all parts of every province is included.
    • Will use "Hublless Questing".*
    • Expect to hit level cap in 120 hours.
    • Each faction has it's own questlines.
    • Will use WoW-style phasing. Players will be able to group up and help someone in a different stage though.
    • Will include public dungeons.
    • There will be quest choices and characters will be able to die, changing any following quests.
    • Will have joinable guilds, guilds can provide special abilities. (Fighters guild, mages, etc etc.)
    • Will not being using the Tank/Healer/DPS standard for dungeons/raids. Players will be responsible for their own defense and healing.
    • Won't have aggro (What?)
    • Small hotbar and few abilities. Zenimax says there won't be a need for the standard MMO ability rotation. Equiped weapon will determine your light and heavy attack.
    • Characters can "combo" their abilities. Example- a rogue puts down an oil slick to slow down enemies, a mage could then shoot a fireball at it and set the oil ablaze.
    • AI will be vastly improved over standard MMOs. Enemies will work together and can also "combo" their moves.
    • Cyrodiil will be the open world, end game PVP zone. Each faction is battling for control of the imperial city.
    • Zenimax expects the biggest end game PVP battles to top out at 100 vs 100.
    • Crafting will exist, no details.
    • Players can not become werewolves or vampires.
    • Guardian stones like in skyrim will return.
    • Will not be using Radiant AI
    • No flying mounts.
    • They haven't figured out how to make stealth work
    • There may be dragons.
    • No player houses
    • No romances
    • Fully Voiced.
    • The imperial city has been taken over my molag bol. Capturing Cyrodiil allows the controlling faction to fight in the city. (I'm guessing it'll be end-game dailies and maybe raids)


    It's got some pretty interesting ideas, and the questing system looks like it could be good. But they're going to just cock it up of course.

    Yeah, the article references WoW about 5 times and even ends with "It may face a lot of criticism for being too much like an MMO from elder scrolls fans and criticism from MMO fans from being too much like WoW". It's all class-based/action bars with levelling, the manual aim had to be thrown out because blah blah latency, and they don't even know if they're going to be doing full looting or theft (guessing no). There's 3 faction open world PvP set in cyrodiil over the imperial city, and if your side wins one of you gets to become the emporer. Wahoo.

    just, so shitty and bad
