Originally posted by Brenelael Take a look at how long this group has been sitting around waiting for funding to get a project actually going...you know damn well that they were pushing for a DAOC2, since the heads of the company are from DAOC...it has been so long since DAOC dropped in popularity that the corporate dogs in charge felt they wouldnt make as much money as they could if they took the TES name instead. Gawd, the very idea of a TES MMO made by someone other than Bethesda pisses me off to no end... “I hope we shall crush...in its birth the aristocracy of our moneyed corporations, which dare already to challenge our government to a trial of strength and bid defiance to the laws of our country." ~Thomes Jefferson |

Originally posted by PyrateLV Tab targetting and copying GW2/TSW combat/hotbars. All I need to hear to write this off until well after its released. I can't imagine anything that could redeem it. When are people going to copy DCUO/TERA combat and add some good content to it so we can make a decent MMO? Does it really have to be one or the other? Whats sad is a tab targetting game could be fitted to have decent targetting system: Get rid of ALL target keys and force the player to 'maintain' their target with a reticle. Then you just need some overt telegraphing for attacks and ways to dodge them. Tab targetting is ancient. GW2 and TSW absolutely DO NOT have action combat. |

Originally posted by GreenishBlue It will never happen. Zenimax will want a Teen rating from ESRB. Remember, they are "targeting" the mainstream MMO "Fun for the whole Family Elder Scrolls!" audience. That means No Drugs. Alcohol will probably be out too No Skooma For You!

Originally posted by Comaf It's interesting. I keep seeing some of you repeat the exact same thing over and over, and I'm not talking about the part were you call everyone morons; good job with that. A few of you keep saying that the same people who are upset with what they're reading about TESO are the same peopel that hype every other game. Strange how all these other games are hyped, and here comes a TESO game that the devs have openly said will play just like all these other games, you would expect all these people who hyped those games would be hyping this one? I"m not sure how you guys come to this oh so profound logical conclusion that people who would hype all those other games are the ones not hyping this one. Or how every new MMO that gets released always manages to get a bunch of hype behind it, yet here we have an MMO announced and NO ONE, but like a whopping half dozen of you here are hyping it. It's a boggling reality that some people live in if they're following the reaction to the announcment of this game, and think that the magority of people want to play an ES mmo that plays like a DAoC/ WoW/ GW/ ToR mashup. I have to wonder why you don't just go and play that game you keep telling us it he best MMO ever made. I don't know who told you that DAoC is no longer running, but they lied to you. Why do you need a new one if that one is so good? BTW, Firor is responcible for every expansion that all the DAoC fans claim ruined the game. He's responcible for bringing all the EQ gameplay in order to attract more people to the game. Why would he do that? Because DAoC was never able to even surpas UO in subscriptions. Even SWG got more players then DAoC. You guys have a very strange way of remembering things. Oh, and Paul Sage? Yeah, he became a designer for UO, and then UO had expansions that did things like created a Felluca, and classes. I absolutely want this guy working on my sandbox game. You know, a guy who was responcible for basically all the stuff that the original UO fans didn't like. It's intersting that these two guys are responcible for TESO, and these two guys are being hpyed by a few of you for why this game will be the bestest ever, and yet they're the two guys responcible for all the things people disliked about the last games they worked for. Yup... |

In these very threads you see the likes of "lol TESO will suck, swtor 2.0, nothing like gw2 the harbinger of world peace and the cure for cancer"
Then you actually read what TESO us doing and it sounds like a BETTER gw2. Non gameyfied pvp with wow kiddie friendly 2 week reset Huge open world not all zoned up. 3 times the pve content Open dungeons The guilds you can join Etc.. |

I can't really say I'm excited for this due to the combat nature, exploration, and whatnot. This was probably one of the best opportunities to deviate away from the norm and create something similar to all the other TES games. Seems like it's going to be a coating of TES with just-another-mmo elements for everythign else. He who keeps his cool best wins. |

Originally posted by ShakyMo I would have said it differently, but yes, you are right. Here we have two games to come out in 2012 and 2013 with very comparable feature sets, one gets flamed to hell and the other hyped to heaven. Those are the times ... I'm a sandbox gamer (like some of you know) and had hoped for more than a themepark but TESO will very probably be the first themepark game I'll buy and play in many, many years. But then I fully expect that a large majority of the posters critical to TESO will buy it too. Many will even pre-order or pre-purchase it to enjoy the marketing campaign Zenimax will call beta-weekend. :)

Originally posted by Larsa TESO gets flamed because it's deviating too far from what people come to expect from a TES game. it may have some interesting ideas but it's not a true TES game. That's why I have an issue with it. Even the art style is not TES.

This means nothing at all. Check up on ie Richard Garriott and Brad McQuaid. No matter how great a dev was in the past, that may not mean anything at all for their next projects. I suggest you hype the game for what the game may offer, not for who's behind it. |

Originally posted by Netspook Not to mention that Dark Age of Camelot was not as popular as he remembers it. Like I said before Elder Scrolls fans want an Elder Scrolls like game. DAoC while a great game for it's time is the polar opposite of everything that makes a TES game what it is at it's core. Which fan group should they be looking to attract? The barely 250 thousand DAoC fans or the well over 10 million fans that bought TES V: Skyrim? To me this should be a no brainer.
Edit: Oh and on a side note... After the Devs at Zenimax Online have been reading threads like this one for a couple of weeks now on their own forum and others I can picture Todd Howard with a big ass grin on his face telling them, "I tried to tell you but you just wouldn't listen"... LOL
