The Elder Scrolls Online

[Sul]

Those Guild Wars 2 concept arts are amazing. They're going to add new races?

Jokes aside I can't belive they changed the elves to humans with pointy ears.

 

[Kane]

So, DraQ, will you be playing this installment of TES? And give the Codex eloquent, detailed reasons how and why it will be dogshit?

I used to be an ES lore enthusiast like you...

NO.

I don't do MMOs.

You should, you're missing out on a lot.

Subscriptions, lack of persistency and retards running around?

I'll pass.

Ok, there are also games like Eve, which seem pretty and more or less the best way to make an MMO actually benefit from MMO part, but they still have subscriptions.

 

[Kane]

Ok, there are also games like Eve,

thats the games i am talking about and not fucking wow or any of its clones

poles are poor bums

 

[abnaxus]

You mean this DOESN'T scream The Elder Scrolls to you? No way, man.

It's just another kalpa

Problem?

 

[Bahamut]

You mean this DOESN'T scream The Elder Scrolls to you? No way, man.

Argonians, Dunmers and Nords together, durrr hurrr

All look soooo generic

It's just another kalpa

Problem?

Problem?

Moar liek Dragon Break armirite?

Moar liek Dragon Break armirite?

Is that a concept art

It's an image of a man with a transcendental mind.

"introduction gameplay video"



It looks like shit and there's absolutely 0 innovation! Surprise!

 

[Brayko]

I do like the idea of Bethesda burning money though.

 

[Angthoron]

Eh. They seem to have some ideas that might be successful. The "Megaserver" thing could be something going for them, and the combat system is at least not copying WoW again. On the other hand, those guys all look like snake oil salesmen so fuck that. Maybe if it's F2P I'll check the trial.

 

[Rahdulan]

I have a feeling that "Megaservers" and "game placing the players right where they should be" is just their cunning plan to avoid saying "yeah, we'll have multiple zone instances". Other than that, it basically looks like they tore a page or two from GW2's design documentation.

 

[ohWOW]

Looks like every other MMO out there.


Such shit.

 

[Metro]

If it comes with a free month I'd buy it for like $10 on sale and enjoy it as a mediocre ARPG for 30 days.

Pretty much what you just said.

No innovation is the new innovation.

 

[Metro]

It's also a way to avoid having the stigma of creating 50 servers at launch and subsequently shutting down 40 of them a few months later.

It looks good enough and I wish it was a single player offline game.

Looks good enough for Amalure clone but this is not Elder Scrolls game.

 

[Curious_Tongue]

Best looking thing I HAVE EVER SEEN! I wish I could pay Bethesda to play it right now.

Such a waste.

A whole world built for a game I ain't gonna play.

fuck you I never said it looked good.
err. I mean, my good sir, I believe you had an accident with your quote.

 

[xemous]

this game will blow away world of warcraft upon release. blizzards still stuck in the everquest era; they're a pentium iii with missing parts, bethesdas an overclocked AMD on speed about to rip the head off a horse.

Kingdumb of Amateurs.


Also, someone remind me why are we keeping xemous around.

 

[Angthoron]

I hope they were being ironic.
