Originally posted by Starwars001 If there's an elder scrolls MMO, call me. I'll leave every game imaginable for it. WoW's #1 contender for killer = life with the assistance of hype.
Expl.: MMO game's are in a depression at this moment. Two large forces are at war, Casual's and Legacy players. Their very existance brings a contradiction. Casual's want faster, newer gameplay, legacy's want slower, time-old gameplay. Companies are trying their damned best to cater to those two's needs. So much so it blinds them. They mash together a jumbled mess of color's that just suck features from other mainstream games and add some paint. However, there exist's one other group, the predecessor's of casual's; Niche players. Niche's play an MMO because they think it's fun, they support and hand over their money for subscription because they feel it will help development. They don't get caught up in the hype of another game's features or what it offers in contrast to their current game. They form guild's and assemble communities in low population games. They are mostly ignored in this battle. Played - M59, EQOA, EQ, EQ2, PS, SWG[Favorite], DAoC, UO, RS, MXO, CoH/CoV, TR, FFXI, FoM, WoW, Eve, Rift, SWTOR, TSW. |

I'd say someone who breaks into all blizzard studios, kills every employee and sets fire to the server farms. |

wow is itself ... just look at diablo 3 they're so scared of simply canybalizing their own player base...that they rather console port it and wait until MoP is released before giving us D3. |

I would be all over an Elder Scrolls MMO. Would be amazing.
Or a really well made Stargate MMO. |

Diabetes is the biggest killer of WoW. Truth aside. As long as the industry wants to take advantage of this generation's style, we won't see a WoW killer. Project Titan so far has the best chance. Just cuz an Elder Scrolls MMO is a dream at this point (mostly due to the fact the tech that will be required isn't here yet) and I don't think a Fallout MMO would be as popular as expected. I used to play MMOs like you, but then I took an arrow to the knee. |

I don't know. It will eventually happen. I remember when MySpace was absolutely huge. MySpace this, MySpace that. So annoying. It just died over night it seemed - replaced by another form of social bacteria: facebook.

If you look at anything from ZeniMax tho', they just wanted to stop use of their owned copyrighted title Fallout. More so than just to stop Interplay from making a MMO so they can release a MMO. We'll see another stand alone Fallout at least before they explore further the concept of a MMO. Bethesda's working on a non-established IP MMO title first. Depending on that I think, which probably started out as TES online 5 years ago but was aborted, and the success of the unique MMO. We'll see the more established IPs made into MMO titles. Probably when the economy turns around. I used to play MMOs like you, but then I took an arrow to the knee. |
