Again ,another misinformed person, ITS NOT Bethesda that’s making these game its Zenimax.
Bethesda have nothing to do with it part that they share the their licenses for the same brand.

Asherons Call had, basically, monthly updates for several years. It came out in 1999. I stopped playing in 2004-2005 though so I don’t know how the updates fare nowdays.

The Lore of The Elder Scrolls goes back atleast 10,000 years.

This is pre-Talos 2nd Era Tamriel. Only the factions are utterly fudged.

Fantasy MMO with Elder Scrolls skin. Factions suck and have no relevance to the pre-established lore nor to the racial histories of the people on tamriel. Looks like Zenimax decided they wanted a cash cow so they got someone to make Dark age of Elder Scrolls. whats sad is that strangely enough this is the EXACT SAME SITUATION as Warhammer Online. The factions suck, it isn’t supported by the lore and generally is a piece of garbage.

Just to let Zenimax in on something. If you make the same damn MMO as every other fantasy MMO you wont pull anyone away from WoW or SWTOR because they already have their chosen “Hotbar stylized art MMO”.

I’m not even a little excited about this. It sounds like just another MMO… but with with an Elder scrolls brand. Because no one’s tried throwing a popular IP’s skin onto an MMO before. :eyeroll:

All I want to know is if there’s a monthly subscription or not. If there is then no sale. If their business model is like ANet with a one time box purchase and micro-transactions for vanity items, then color me interested.

It’s certainly weird that they say they can’t have real time combat due to server latency. Um hello, first person shooters?

Which past? This takes place 1000 years before Skyrim. The attempted conquerings may have been after this point in time. But regardless, you can bet Bethesda will back it up with plenty of lore about wars, alliances, etc. They always do.

Ok. I’m sort of mollified, like the author of this article. Although the screenshots are garbage, it sounds like the game will be based on free-form PvE exploration. That could be cool. But I’m not really hearing anything that makes me want to play. I still think Bethesda is taking a big risk with this, and if it flops it will stain The Elder Scrolls as a series. Though tbh with the runaway success of Skyrim, even an epic fail MMO probably wouldn’t stop The Elder Scrolls VI from being great.
