Elder Scrollls MMO very likely

[jollybarracuda]

If they could find a way to make it so the game plays just like the single player games we have now, with hundreds of other people running around doing quests and stuff, i think it could be the best game ever created. However, MMO's generally have to make a lot of compromises in terms of consistency. I don't think people would be too fond of seeing the dragon they just killed fade back into existence for the next player to kill it. But the system Guild Wars 2 is implementing sounds a bit more organic, where a burning building is burning until a player(s) puts it out, and it stays that way; that might be something that could be further improved and perhaps used in an Elder Scrolls MMO. Just...please don't let it be hotkey based. Like i said, give me Skyrim's gameplay with other people in it. That's all i really want.

I think it could work if they use the free roam style of RDR and GTA IV, I just hope it doesn't try to be like WoW.

I don't think so, they just won the rights to the Fallout MMO so it wouldn't make too much sense to do an elder scroll one.

Theres the difference between having the possibilities for a MMO, and the fact that i doubt the developers of the Elder Scrolls WANTING to make a MMO.

Yes it's a great world and all, but i doubt they would ever want to make that happen. In the best of possibilities online multiplayer for 2 or 3 people playing.

I feel like they prefer to make a important single-player, with so many possibilities, then having to focus resources on a product that would only be half has good.

And i'm happy with the fact they focus so much in the world, from the big to the small things, detail, characters, even the goddam weather. I'm glad they focused on that and a good single player experience.

If it's a sandbox, I'm all for it. If it's a theme park, then they can go to hell.

Edit: I just had a thought, maybe that's what the creation of the Thalmor was for, a set up for two sizable warring factions to split the MMO player community into, ala the Alliance and Horde.

nope, this isn't in any way both a bad idea and totally missing the point of those games, assuming they had one to begin with .... that bits always been fuzzy to me

I don't know how to feel about this, actually.

Neutral?

i have the feeling, with all the hype surrounding you, you just let a great many down.

also, where'd that even come from?

I hope to God not, that would be horrible.

I LOVE TES!

And I would have to contemplate killing someone if this is true. I won't believe it is true. Besides, that sounds like a financial disaster.
