"Seems like it could be a good couch MMO for awhile on PS4" is basically like an alcoholic reviewing TESCO vodka and praising it for having the advertised alcohol content, and thus keeping him blacked out for a while.

The PvP is going to be where it's at in ESO. It's going to be similar to Dark Age of Camelot - which was good until the ToA expansion game out and broke everything.

im really glad every mmo ever has either died a painful death or is dying a painful death. leave no survivors

I can't believe mmos are still being made. Alot of amazing gameplay designs died with their designer's companies. I think Shadowbane was probably the biggest loss.

my favorite part about this mmo is the people complaining that its not faithful to elder scrolls lore. theres a loving elder scrolls lore?

Yes, out of all the MMOs let's mourn the loss of the bug ridden piece of poo poo Shadowbane.

It's not that I have a strong personal attachment to the lore or anything but having played a bunch of TES games that do generally manage to maintain some sort of continuity in the bad writing some of the stranger choices about TESO are kind of like if you want to see Peter Jackson's The Hobbit but were shocked to discover that it takes place on post-apocalyptic new jersey and that the hobbits are portrayed as a race of futuristic mutant cats. If they wanted to do that they should have just hired some writers and made a new story to go with it because it's actively made worse by trying to shoehorn in a bunch of readymade story in a way that doesn't line up with any returning customer's expectations. This will be another bad MMO regardless but it's made that much worse, being a TES game, by the fact that apparently nobody involved in its design has ever played a TES game.

But the best parts of TES are the ones that are totally batshit crazy and out of left field. This is why everyone loves Morrowind, because while it's the same bad TES gameplay the world is a crazy clusterfuck of volcanoes and giant bugs and mushroom houses and dead robot gods or whatever that you can wander around and break at your leisure. Also you can easily juke up your stats and be the loving flash or break spellcasting and literally fly. The reason many people play TES and not other RPGs is that at its absolute best it's essentially the Saint's Row of fantasy games in terms of goofy poo poo, and TESO has none of that.

No LFG channel or group finder. No auction channel or AH. Rumor is guilds can sell things as a guild in a AH, also to people outside a guild. You can be part of 5 guilds at once. Guild chat commands are /guild1 /guild2 ect Only zone chats.

How long has this been in development? because i can only think they wanted to quickly capitalize on skyrims/Tes' recent hype and success by making a game where people will pay to play.
