My next MMO- The Elder Scrolls Online

Introduction video was released for TESO today:

Really liking the look of it so far, will have to see how it pans out in the coming months.

If saving CoH doesn't pan out, this seems like my next highest candidate.

From what I've read so far, it looks to be geared more towards PvP with a little PvE tossed in. Whether the PvE can turn into PvP at the drop of a Ganker's hat remains to be seen. That is something I will be looking into.

At the moment, the only PvP that I tolerate is MechWarrior Online. But then, there isn't any PvE in it at all. At least not while it's in open Beta.

Sadly it has next to nothing to do with the actual Elder Scrolls universe. The changes they've made to the world itself are laughably bad.

Next.

It has potential. I'll be keeping my eye on it.

It has Castle working on it, so it can't be all bad (or any good, depending on how you feel about that )

For ES:O, I just hope that A) it's not yet-another standard fare fantasy MMO, B) it doesn't use the god-awaful character system of the Elder Scroll games and C) it's not as bugged as your average Bethesda title.

Ooh look. Another Fantasy, trinity using, loot based, raiding centric MMO. This garbage is going to fail harder than TOR, and that at least had a different setting.

Next.

Yeah, I have to admit that the minute I heard it was going to be another tab-targeting, turn-based, attack-tray theme park, it fell right off my radar. It sounds like another cheesy cash-in copy of the WoW formula.

In this day and age, why can't it have the same real-time engine as the single player games do and keep the world intact as well? They run (albeit a little slowly) on ye olden days of yore's PS3 and Xbox 360 that are stuck in the Direct X 7 dark ages here. You can't tell me most PC gamers don't have at least those specs if not a lot better than 7-8 year old hardware!

And Tera manages the same real-time, FPS-type engine as Elder Scrolls (and Reckoning for that matter) have, with minimal instancing (they do offer mirrors of zones, but they appear to have high population caps).

C'mon, Zenimax, you could have done better.

If it's anything like Skyrim outside of the bugs it should be amazing. I question teaming though.

Saw the trailer. *yawn*

Enough with the generic fantasy MMOs please. Also, Bethesda/Zenimax, don't you dare murder the Elderscrolls' franchise with this MMO.

Or any mod for Skyrim seeking to build the whole of Tamriel.

Or Multiplayer-Skyrim.

Or Skywind.

Capische?

As someone who has been playing since DaggerFall, I can't wait. It's literally the only fantasy MMO I'd play. Which is good news since I can finally play something with my GF.

Of course, my entire decision still rests on whether or not it has speech bubbles.

So...still waiting on that bit of information before I get too excited.

Sadly it's art style seems just as bad as the regular Elder Scrolls. :/

I loved Morrowind and Oblivion...this is the first online game that has sparked any interest for me.

LOL..CoH has been my first and ONLY mmo...nothing I have seen could ever replace it...but ESO is the first one that even piques my interest at all.
