It has been announced recently that an Elder Scrolls MMO is being developed by ZeniMax studios online. So far the few things that have been revealed is that it is set 1000 years before skyrim, it is set across the entire land of Tamriel (ohhh :3) and there will be 3 factions. Just wondering what any of you other fans of the elder scrolls series think about this?
So far it seems that lots of people is mad that its an MMO, guessing some people need to have their games first person hack'n'slash or run'n'gun, personal choice I guess :P Personally I don't mind MMOs and I like the series so I am looking forward to seeing where this goes.

Looking forward to this, i always wondered how a game that big would have been with multiplayer or atleast co-op. I remember someone tried to make a co-op mod for Skyrim but cant remember how far they are now.

HO LY SHIT! Will be my new dragon shout... This is making me shake from excitement... NEEEEED... DEVELOP NOOOOOW

You are talking about skyrim-online.com? They are waiting for the guy that does the server side work to get back from vacation, then they will be close to done.

I've been a TES fan for a long long time, now, and I figured they would probably make something like this a long time ago, but I am still surprised and extremely excited whilst reading this.
I can't wait.

If you want to ruin a good game you might as well make it an MMO
I'm a life-time TES fan and I think anyone else who is agrees with me

Yea, I think it will be full of stupid.

I have been playing since Daggerfall and I can see why this would look like an entirely different game seing as how traditionally the elder scrolls are first person games and traditionally MMOs are mousey-clickey third person games. But who is to say they won't stick with the good 'ol first person aspects. If not then it will only appeal to friends of MMOs who still like to delve into the lore of the elder scrolls (Quite a small group :P)
But I don' think this will ruin the series as it is just a spin off game (unless you were suggesting that the series is already ruined) and Bethesda will still be making the "traditional" Elder scrolls games.
-
As long as it plays like any Elder scrolls game, just with multiplayer added, I'd be fine. If it turns out like LoL/WoW/SWTOR I will be pissed.
-
I cant wait to play this, but I hope its not like WoW or SW KOTOR

Funny part is, I like playing my elderscrolls games in 3rd person, cause I see how cool they are at being the badass that I play them to be.

I agree, I love the third person perspective to the game.
-
oh god kmp do you really think that if they make an MMO they will stick to the normal elder scrolls kind of gameplay
And panda I respect you for playing Daggerfall +1
add on steam
Okay and if they actually do make it into an MMO they're really going to fuck it up, the lore just does not suit an MMO. We will have petite dark elves running around with pink streaks in there hair talking about how sexual they are and then all the sudden a WILD SEYDA NEEN/GOLDSHIRE appears and the cyber begins...
I really hope this doesn't end up like retail WoW

Yes, I get that its an MMO and sometimes franchises don't convert well, but we have to give it a chance. The new star wars game was pretty good.
And lets be honest, you were expecting them to make something like this.

no.

???
No again. They weren't going to do this, it is not them, they even told us that they wanted to focus on the single-player experience and perfect that, not focus on multiplayer.
look at all the elderscrolls games
go
-
I also hope that it has RPG elements, instead of kind of how WoW did it.
-
Most people dont know this but this was in dev. b4 anyone even knew that skyrim was being made... That said it will be nothing like any of the other TES games. It's looking like a WOW clone more and more. There are no dragon shouts... you know what... you wont be able to do anything your able to do in almost all the TES games. All this is just a WOW clone and a bad one at that. If your into point and click games have at it.
-
I am really excited for it, but I have noticed a decline in MMO gaming recently. at least in the quality of
-
Primarily single-player series have made multiplayer variants before (i.e. Ultima Online, which actually became very sucessfull).
I'm rather glad they named it TES Online instead of TES 6: Online, like they did with Final Fantasy 11 and 14 instead of making them a seperate spin-off series.
-
I can not wait until Elder Scrolls online, I think it will be awsome to run around all of Tamerial with other people.
-
I don't know if I will be SUPER HYPED about this in the future because I am not really expecting to be an amazing best thing ever game. Ill probably just end up sticking to Skyrim if I want some Elder Scrolls gameplay.

this may interest you all yes

planetside 2 :))) VVVVVVVVVVVV
-
Eh, no. I'll save my 2 cents for Planetside 2.
Trying to convert a single player game [franchise] into a multiplayer or MMO game doesn't work. Ever.
Look at SW:TOR. SW:KOTOR and SW:KOTOR TSL came before that, and were good games. TOR isn't that good.
-
I'm afraid that they're going to destroy the TES series since i dont think it was built to become an MMORPG
But but... it can be good im going to buy it so we will see!
-
This does not look that good as I hoped it would be.
-
I feel like they're going away from what the elder scrolls are really about, so... You know, I probably won't buy it.
-
My friend said it would be like a WOW view and stuff, but i think its going to be 1st/3rd person view. What is it going to be?
-
First off, they aren't pulling a Bioware, this hiccup most likely won't destroy the series. Second off, it has a hot-bar and it looks like Kingdoms Of Amalur: Reckoning... If it's Free-to-Play, I would think about giving it a chance, but if it's 20-dollars a month? I'm starting a riot. Sadly, I think this is just to expand on Lore a bit, which I'm cool with. But if they are thinking of making the game worse just to have a more varied community, then they are forgetting logic and becoming money whores. Hopefully Zenimax doesn't make this idea spread onto Bethesda, I'm cool having a bud come over and us two fighting dragons and shaz, but making it so some little kid can join the party and pull a grief move? No. Just no.

What faction are you guys joining, I am joining the dagger fall! ;) :D

Again, if it's free-to-play, then I'm doing the same. :P

I'm gonna join whichever faction the redguards are
