If we finally get to see stuff from Akavir in a freaking MMO that won't do them justice I'll be mad.

So hopefully it's not it.

Finally.

EDIT: Bethesda isn't developing this? I suppose that's a good thing since I'd rather seem them continue to make single player RPGs.


Also good because Bethesda keeps running its own baby into the ground.

More like if they want good... game. Playing an Elder Scrolls MMO with their current combat system would pretty much be the worst game I can think of.

I thought you liked Skyrim? If not why did you spend hundreds of hours playing it

Stop being freaking dumb



also I'd have high hopes if this was being developed by Bethesda.. But since it isn't I'm very skeptic

I liked it better than Oblivion, but once you get past all the new shiny you realize that what's killing the series (scaled content) is still there.

At least in a MMO they can't have that so maybe it'll be decent.

While I can understand why people use the term "WoW clone" it's not like WoW was a terribly original model for an MMO or anything.

Also even clones can be successful. Rift is extremely like WoW. The pvp maps are basically the same, same 3 talent tree system, similar instanced dungeons, etc.

If they make one MMO, itll be the end of their single player games. Probably not a good thing, but im all for an MMO to finally replace WoW. Hopefully its not a boring clone cash in.

WoW wasn't a completely original model, but it was the first mass advertised MMO. It had a very dedicated userbase backing it (early 00s blizzard fans....nuff said), and it and EQ2 were the first major MMOs after high speed internet became the majority (2003/2004 ish)

Most importantly, it was very casual friendly from the start and only got more casual friendly.

Just, no, Elder Scrolls does not translate to an MMO. I'd accept online co-op, but not actual MMO. (And this is coming from someone who has 300 days played in Everquest and no idea how many in WoW.)

Should have been Fallout. Creating player towns or robbing them for their water with an all vats combat system sounds much better then ayalid ruin crawling for loot.

are there really MMOs where players impact the world in a real way? I am not saying you are wrong, I don't know a lot about MMOs. It seems to me though that usually players just play through whatever the creators wrote, rather than actually impacting anything.

Cyclo can smell the blood of his enemies.

He's literally obsessed with people he claims do not matter.

And yes, he will respond to this post while dodging the issue entirely to take a cheap shot at me.

In Wakfu players literally control the ecosystem, economy, and diplomatic relations between nations.
