ESO will not work that is plain and simple    they are abusing a well known franchise name in the hope ofselling what is  otherwise a remake of a old game  and a empty box

we all seen what happens if you use a well known franchise name in a MMO

Warhammer online ,  died because of greed on the publishers  side

Star trek online   after all the hype  you are basicly playing a  repetitive and boring single player game online

SWTOR no comments needed

 

and ESO will probably  be a bit of everything above

 

Did they ever asked if we wanted a MMO

Did they ever asked us  what kind of game concept  we would like to see

, no   they just  hired  some  guy who had some experience in a MMO and told him he has carte blanche  with  the  franchise name so  he  just  renamed his own  old MMO and   voila you have a new MMO and with a name like that  all those mollions of people who bought skyrim will rush out and buy a copy  or a subscriotion .surely.....money money

 

Yes they already started to review of the feedback but they also started to hype this game  as THE GAME of the decade

 

in my opinion it will be DaoC II  and nothing more nothing less less and another mutant WoW clone that brings nothing new in a MMO market already  saturated by medioric themepark  WoWclones

umm SWTOR is epic. i don't understand why people didn't like it. a lot of poeple said endgame content was limited compared to WoW but duhhh. WoW has been around for 10 years and SWTOR has only been around for a year. Anyways if ESO is even close as good as SWTOR then it will be a great game. And seeing as how it is Elder Scrolls it will probaly be better. And if you wish to insult ESO please do it on a forum that isn't about Elder Scrolls Online.

@elfman123 because SWTOR is a replacement for perhaps the greatest game to the star was franchise, Knights of the Old Republic I and II. If you ever get a chance to play them, do it, they were great and actually very modable. @kleinstaff I do think that ESO has a chance of greatness, what i've seen is not what most think of an MMO, it looks more geared towards the "Elder Scrolls" than the "Online".

and there is your problem with all those themepark MMOs   the endgame

There shouldn't even be a ENDGAME in a MMO,

Sure you can go and slay some epic dragon or lichking or whatever but the game shouldn't end at  level  whatever , to be honest  even the whole idea of levels in MMOs   is one of the reasong  i do not play them  often or i just do not like them

Endlessly grinding levels  just so you can  join the big  boys  is boring and kills any immersion

I agree.

Ever since the video where the guy says the game pretty much opens up at level 50 really turned me off the game. As an avid RPG player, the entire experience should be just as good as anything offered at max level. I shouldn't feel the need to rush to max level simply because that's where all the "good" content is.

Any former Ultima Online subs in here besides me? That was basically a pure sandbox MMO with pretty much no quests at all (before expansions) and I actually loved playing that game at the time. There weren't any classes or levels. You used the skills you wanted to raise and neglected the skills you didn't. Sound familiar? I actually played that MMO solo for the most part and still had a lot of fun that way.

I can't decide if you're simply an idiot or misinformed. Where did you get that bs info about eso? Your comment about daoc is assinine. just ebcause they're adapting something along the same lines as daoc in as far as the 3 factions so what? Nothing wrong with adopting something that worked in another game and giving it their own twist. Just because they're using something from another game doesn't make it that game. This game will bne nothing like daoc.

As for SWTOR, iloved it! but when the powergamers were donw with it and many of the servers' populations started dropping, it made doing many of the instances and group quests undoable and when they went ftp, i quit. I started playing and within 2-3 weeks of the game being out, already the powergamers were whining about endgame this and that. I've written a diseration on why powergamers are bad for mmo's and got an A+ on that assignment but won't get into it here lest these same whiny powergamers start a flame war(though i admit that by what i said above, i may be the flame war culprit hehe). Everything i've seen so far tells me this will be something special in mmo'dom.

Obviously these are merely opinions I'm offering. There is no possible way to determine or claim if any game in existence is "The best ever made". I am simply stating what is in my opinion, the finest work on the elder scrolls series IE: Arena. And you know what they say about Opinions...

I hate to break your heart as well Nuvendile, but there are few games that exist that are not WoW clones anymore. To further compound that, one could argue WoW is in fact a clone of Everquest, and Everquest is just a massive rip off Dungeons and Dragons... I believe the point people are making when they cry "WoW Clone" is.... "This is unoriginal"

Lastly, If you could not detect my sarcasm about the predictions for TES VI... I'm sorry?

A fine point you bring up Mr Bergz, While I did not focus on commenting about ESOs art, it does in fact look terrible and cartoonish, yet another caveat of a "WoW clone". And while graphics should not define an elderscrolls game, I do feel this is a step backwards... Though understandable for what they are attempting.

Do you feel these games are evolving in the right direction though? That was what I wanted to make people think about. All games change and turn into different incarnations of them selves as time goes on.... Mass Effect anyone?

If there was no end game few would replay any game one reason why elder scrolls is so re-playable vs other rpg single players after you get most of your lvls, done the main quest and side quests there is still things to do in the game obviously a bit different then mmos but similar you have end game. The more end game you have the more options you bring to the player to choose..for example star trek online is rather a fun game but when you get to end game there is not a hole lot to do and for most ppl that can become boring.

@sneslive If you like ultima online try mortal online its a sandbox mmorpg no leveling, no classes based upon chosen skills but your forced into 1st person view only and its rather more brutal.

Wow... This actually shows how much actual knowledge you have about game development...
Dont like it? I see no point in commenting here. However it is hard to see how could you like it if you havent played it yet... Ridiculous...
