rainy day posted:eso is a bad game No sperg discussions about graphics settings or bugs from the beta. Lets have a nice time talking about why it's stupid to make a generic MMO in 2014. just getting this thread out there so I can say I hated it before it was cool to hate it UPDATE: Michael Kirkbride, author of the original Elder Scrolls Lore, is going to try to explain to us why the lore isn't hopelessly hosed up. This friday for all us non sex-havers. http://michaelkirkbride.tumblr.com/...orebomb-targets but real talk: who the gently caress thought it would be a good plan to take a single player game where you feel unique and independent in a fantasy world and try to replicate that with 3,000 people that just sounds stupid as gently caress most ppl i know are saying "well just give it a try" or some poo poo but it's just basic logic that if you remove what made the game fun and exciting then older fans probably won't like it imo  so yeah lets discuss why TESO sucks so hard here Also post cool TES facts from older games that made them cool: It was possible in Oblivion to make weapons so powerful that they would launch people into the air from the hosed up physics engine. JebanyPedal posted:The female high-elf in Oblivion sometimes goes "WHOOAAAAAAAAAA!" in this outrageous Bill & Ted way when she gets hit. and here's how you could make a fun MMORPG besides not making a MMORPG The Protagonist posted:All the legacy weapons are there, but only one of each. Either you have to do a brutal quest gauntlet to earn one of them, or you have to kill the current holder of one. If the holding player deletes the character/destroys it or just doesn't log for a given amount of time it resets to the quest dungeon. Also public records are kept as to who owns what and for how long. WinnebagoWarrior posted:I unironically believe that MMOs should have no story what so ever and just a giant world to explore and do whatever you want in, Star Wars Galaxies style.

Game is going to be loving awful because bethesda suddenly loves to poo poo all over the parts of the elder scrolls lore that aren't Lord of the Rings i.e bland as gently caress.

elder scrolls combat has been historically terrible. but it oozes charm, puts you in a bigass world to explore, has a lot of hilarious glitches, and makes you feel important so naturally bethesda decided this was the perfect game for an MMO because it's.. literally the opposite of their games?

Cosby Onahole posted:Being upset over a mmo is a really cool thing to do, congrsts on being a really cool person. I don't think anyone is upset about ESO, rather they are laughing at how bad the beta was and eagerly anticipating the game flopping as spectacularly as FF14 and The Old Republic both did.

Hey is it time to quote myself? I think it is. The Protagonist posted:TESO is going to be dull, shallow, boilerplate tripe and I don't know how anyone who has seen the gameplay vids could think otherwise The Protagonist posted:it's pretty great to hear the quakcon crowd's blatantly feigned excitement and veiled disappointment

ESO is going to be poo poo because you they will not visit any of the insane parts of the Elder Scroll's world. It'll just be generic fantasy country and generic icy fantasy country.
