The Elder Scrolls move to MMORPG.
« on: May 04, 2012, 10:41:53 PM »
You heard it right, the biggest western RPG  is going massively multiplayer in 2013.

http://asia.gamespot.com/news/elder-scrolls-online-confirmed-for-2013-6374918

The game takes place 1000 years before TES:Skyrim, in a Tamriel which is endangered by the daedric prince Molag-Bal. There are also factions, so the game might be a bit Guild Wars-esque. What's really amazing is that the game is going to cover the WHOLE of Tamriel.

Note : Details may vary from final product .

Nice find. This should be a great project if they manage to pull it off. However if they should not maintain the TES essence.....

Bethesda is not going to make this one, they're leaving to a new company, Zenimax Online Studios.
About maintaining the TES essence....all elder scroll prophecies are about a single hero, a chosen one. I wonder how they pull it off with that many players.

Worst Case Scenario : Fable III

ArenaNet managed to make it work for Guild Wars 2. The game revolves around you, yet you can take your friends to join you on YOUR quests.

Expect many naked players with nothing but loin cloth. And some massive NPC Deaths. Provided that NPCs are killable.

....Yeah, I expect this to end badly.

Apparently there's going to be some info for the game making it into June's Game Informer.

Expect many naked players with nothing but loin cloth.
They're going to be wielding noob weapons and be screaming "BLAH BLAH BLAH ARROW TO THE KNEE LOLOLOL" and then complaining when they're level 1 and not able to kill Molag-Bal.

I didn't like Skyrim that much either, it was good, but when compared to all the games that came before it.....there wasn't much of an improvement. Just felt like another chapter with some new DLC features. I just didn't feel it :/
