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.


What happened with the whole 'hey guys I'm going to try and be nice from now on' thing?

Well I'm not into MMOs but I'd consider making an exception if the NeoGAF details didn't largely turn me off!

It sounds more like an MMO that is Elder Scrolls-themed rather than an Elder Scrolls game that is an MMO.

I'm not sure if that actually makes sense.

Considering housing, marriage and the like are out and TOR's 'illustrious' Hero Engine and Rift-style graphics are in... yeah, makes total sense.

That seems to be the in thing lately, is working on games without announcing them for quite some time. I'd say something about how maybe a lot of companies are trying to avoid SE-style blunders, but then...

...fun fact, FFXIV was in development for like three or four years before it was announced. >_>;

Seconding this. It's also why EVE hasn't withered and died like so many other MMOs.

"set a millennium before the events of Skyrim"

I'm not especially clear on the timeline, is this long enough for the Dwemer to still be around? That could be interesting.

No, they're gone. They disappeared in the First Era, this will take place 4 or 5 centuries into the Second Era

Ugh I don't know much about engines but I do know that TOR was terrible to handle... is that the fault of the Hero Engine or should I be less worried?

Also I hope they have gameplay mechanics that will essentially force the factions to even out or cause population imbalances to not matter, because NO ONE (exaggeration mine) is going to be in the Daggerfall Covenant.

The highest-ranked pvp player becoming temporary emperor is the only feature that really caught my eye/I actually thought was awesome.

-For example, you don't necessarily pick up a quest to do the following, but if you kill all the necromancers in an undead barrow, a shade you free at the end will reward you.
-However, to help you find these events, various NPCs you talk to will tell you where they are happening and put a marker pointing them on your map, which is obviously totally different than receiving a quest.



Did I just read this?

From what I heard, TOR used an old, unstable version of the Hero Engine.

Naah, the Dwarves were gone much earlier then that, it'll be probably before the Morrowind Flood to drive away to Akaviri invaders or something.

HUGE chances that it's gonna be an Akavir Potentate at the head of the Empire then.

Also of the three factions there's only the Ebonheart Pact that isn't totally lame.

Dunmers, Nords and Argonians? That's like the 3 best races right there.

Also having Dunmers and Argonians together doesn't make sense lore-wise.

But whatever I guess.

makes sense, TES is basically all the mundane parts of an MMO except without the fun social element of actually being massively multiplayer, weird that it's taken this long really

Well the single player games (bar Morrowind) look generic sure, but the gameplay, openendedness and all isn't.

But here we have a generic looking MMO with a generic looking artstyle.

The screenshots do look a bit generic, but I'm willing to give it the benefit of the doubt since it's still early.

If it's not a jungle people are gonna get hurt.

Also this MMO probably suffered from the MOST negatively received announcement ever, seriously since the feature leaks pretty much everybody's mad.
