Simple question, out of the Elder Scrolls Online or EQ:Next. I understand that EQ:Next has very little information but based on what we know of each what seems to be the better offering?

both will be major disappointments, but EQ will be worse.

EQ Next is hyped to have sandbox features but since it is SOE we are talking about I strongly doubt that it will be the case. Elder Scrolls Online, from what I have read, will not be like Skyrim. Which means no open world but probably linear ThemePark. So I would say both games will be pretty poor. Only indy companies can produce any innovative MMOs so I will be looking for those games. I am done with so called triple A MMOs. |

ESO is shaping to be a typical themepark type game with raid dependant lewtz.

The doctors say his chances are 50/50...but there's only a 10% chance of that. |

I'm only going to buy one of them, whichever has a track record of using the fantasy races I like most. Those races are High Elf Dark Elf Wood Elf Lizard Person Cat Person
Clearly there is only one choice for me. El Psy Congroo |

Originally posted by MMOBaconz Seems that way to me also. So this is basically sandbox vs themepark. Provided soe is really making a sandbox like they claim. Express your opinion http://www.mmorpg.com/discussion2.cfm/thread/371172/Poll-Most-hated-MMORPG.html |

How the hell is anyone supposed to know this? We can say with we 'want' to be better. For me it's EQ: Next. I think the setting and lore of ES games is poor and narrowminded.. also generally uninteresting. I also don't like what I've seen from the art style.. the videos show a much less gritty ES world and is slightly cartoony (slightly). I prefer the high fantasy setting of EQ. Plus, from the sounds of it EQ: Next is at least attempting to do something different. They might fail trying but that's where I stand at the moment. |

Both will suck. It does not matter which one will suck more.

I'm banking on EQ next to be the better game.they have a successful track record, despite what people think.I think some of those sounding off are still bitter from SWG.

I am very sceptical about TESO. At this point, it seems that it will be a regular themepark which relies on a popular IP. I hope that we, the consumers, are now more knowledgeable than we were several years ago and will not fall into this trap. I know almost nothing about EQ Next, but the claim of its producers that it will be a sandbox game is enough for me right now to vote that it will be better. However, my opinion may change as soon as we get more information about this game.

Bad poll! Pathfinder Online those two listed won't be MMORPGs just MMOs like we always see.

Voted misanthrope.
TESO might end up being a great game, but from what I've seen it is so far distanced from TES that it cannot live up to its IP. SOE and a sandbox? I'm doubtful. |

As long as players won't overhype these games and have reasonable expectations :) both might be decent games. I hope that both will bring something different to the table, so there will be even more variety. It seems that devs scrapped initial EQnext design and aiming for something new... hopefully their ideas will be interesting.
