Yeah, Killed it for me too.

I am extremely skeptical about this game.  It is important to realize that this game is NOT made by the people who make the regular Elder Scrolls games.  It is made by a completely separate studio headed up by an old Mythic guy that worked on DAoC.

IMO, the reason that the Elder Scrolls games are so amazing is that the same core team has worked on each one.  But this one is an entirely different team, so the "magic" that makes Elder Scrolls games great simply is not there.

To me, this is just "some MMO" made by "some team."  I don't consider a game not made by the Bethesda studio located in Bethesda Maryland to be a real Elder Scrolls game.

Let's hope the leaked info is fake. We all want to see TES:Online, not "World of Elder Scrolls: The old Empire".

Cool.. All they have to do is make a co-op online mode for Skyrim and I will be happy.. lol.. Screw trying to make all these MMO fair weather bandwagon jumping fans happy... It cannot be done..

I hate to say it, but they might be digging themselves an early grave much like Square Enix did with the Final Fantasy series..

Funny thing is, every single time a poll has been made on the official Bethesda Elder Scrolls forums, all the way from Morrowind to Skyrim, asking whether TES should be an mmo the results have always been resoundingly in the "NO FUCKING WAY EVER!" category.

So much for listening to the fanbase.

i know this is a curveball but this whole story feels like some marketing BS.. maybe they are basically trying to set us up to have low expectations..then BAM.. a incredible MMO.. trying to avoid the "This is a WOW clone" thing by just coming out and saying the game is similar to wow or swtor?? my guess.. its nothing like the two.  its called Controversy. Maybe This is just false info to get people hype and excited about ESO period

Sorry, there is nothing traditional about Tera's combat. It's more like playing God of War than an MMO.

I never get that stuff...they don't have to play it.

This is by far the most amazing announcment ever in my 16 years of gaming, the most important question i will have for this game, and i promise it's all i will ever ask, will it be sandbox...please god

Ouch, looks bad. dead on arrival i'd say.

Here is hoping they can make a perfect MMO RPG like they can make the perfect single player RPG.

Non instanced dungeons is a known fact so far. :D

Would like to see something like RvR in ESO like what I saw in DAoC.

The same skill system in ESO as Skyrim or Morrowind.

A non class gameplay. This will free up the sandbox even more.

Sandbox type gameplay is a must if this is to work as a MMO.

Full loot rights on dead players. I want death to have an impact and meaning not just some horrid repair mechanic.

Obviously the graphics in the very first article about the game are never going to improve. I bet the events will suck too and the game will probably be 100% themepark with instancing at every turn. The rest of development is going to be spent on large boats, champagne and super models (and VO from washed up performers). We might as well give up now and just throw money into the dumpster.

Why is everyone so gloomy around here 24/7??? Cheer up a little.

ES, any version, was to me always boring world of nothing. Every few hours some beast. No matter level all mobs equaly hard/easy. Same fighting rat or dragon. Even for that time mechanics of movement of characters .... just bad, like all have ate wooden stick for dinner. Etc. Despite every version was new disappointment, I have keept up with trying new ones. Had enough with Oblivion. Hopefully mmo version would be good, I'm still willing to try.

Without a doubt this game will be awesome, as long as theres lots of pvp :)

The game will have Both instanced & Non-instanced Dungeon and Raid dungeons, from the looks of it pvp will be a big part of this game

I'll be expecting this to be generic and terrible, until I have any reason to think otherwise.

Agree.

I expect more shoddy work from Bethesda. Level 45 and I beat the main story in Skyrim....the rest is just boring and it still has tons of stability issues. Thanks to the mod community, it's better than what it would be. Still, I don't trust Bethesda anymore after failrim.
