Sites such as Gamestop already have Elder Scrolls Online ready to pre-order which sort of blows my mind considering the game isn't even coming out until 2013! http://www.gamestop.com/pc/games/the-elder-scrolls-online/101905 That's the link to show you. Look at the release date: 12/31/2013 That's a long time to wait anyways, and so I don't really see how anyone would want to pre-order a game when they know so little about it. All they know is that it's Elder Scrolls and while that may be enough for some people it's not for me. I'm just a bit curious, do you guys pre-order games that much in advance when you have so little information to go on them? I mean, what if it turns out you end up not liking the game? Smile |

The game is doomed to fail. The people want Skyrim Online, not a WoW clone with Elder Scroll skins.

Originally posted by zimike Probably true. Can't wait for devs to realize WoW is not what people want any more. It's a shame so many bought MoP, would have loved to see that fail, so we can get past these WoW clones. I will never purchase one... |

Originally posted by Razeekster Thats going to be the trick for this game selling well honestly. They are going to be relying on the name selling it rather than the info or the game itself. This is definitely one thats going to rely on initial sales, see huge intial sales at release then a steep decline soon after. |

Originally posted by ShakyMo Ha ha ha ha. Good one. EA CEO John Riccitiello's on future microtransactions: "When you are six hours into playing Battlefield and you run out of ammo in your clip, and we ask you for a dollar to reload, you're really not very price sensitive at that point in time...We're not gouging, but we're charging." |

I can kinda understand folks giving money to indie devs through Kickstarter. However, established studios are not charities - none of them see a penny of my money till they have a finished product. |

wow..we barely know anything on TES online at this point, and people started giving away their money already?

Players come for the game, but they stay for the people- Most Devs have forgotten this. |

Meantime you share your random knowledge. Give me a break, you have 6,000 posts+ And yet all your post still say is.. "I think im smart, watch how i use my wording!" Please, if you all were so smart, you wouldnt be arguing here like children.

And the market has shown that people are fairly done with the WoW model, how many MMO's based on the WoW model have come and gone or converted to f2p when the intent was for it to be p2p? I'm not saying WoW doesn't have a following, but lets be realistic here... those that want to play a WoW style game are playing WoW and even within that group fewer and fewer are buying the expansions. |

True 3 faction Wpvp. Skill based ability progression system. Tag a closed beta on that 60, I'd buy.

Originally posted by GrayGhost79 Those figures included only the sales in the west as stated, also people are not done with the WoW model as WoW proves time and time again. Maybe if a game that copies WoW and is of high quality will be successful as well. |

Originally posted by OG_Zorvan Yea, too bad ShakyMo is either joking or has no clue about what TESO really is. Watch all of the interviews, sneak peaks, and developer insights into TESO. The game is a sure-fire SWTOR/WoW clone.
It WILL fail as no one wants a WoW-fied version of Skyrim. They just don't, and I'm sorry the truth hurts. However, sometimes beating around the bush being "nice" is far more harmful than not. |

Originally posted by phantomghost Exactly. You said "WoW is not what people want any more." not "WoW clone is not what people want any more." And then you contradict yourself in the next sentence. MoP is WoW and it did well. |

Originally posted by bcbully You forgot hard-lined "Classes" with those skills that lock your progression. Think WoW's tier system, only split up into different weapons to earn points for. Yea, GG with that! True 3 Faction Wpvp? Um, nope! Also, Elder Scrolls has never been about locking people into three distinct factions. It was always about freedom, and removing that means it isn't an Elder Scrolls Title. |

Pre-order now so if the development of the game doesnt go how you like you can start screaming about how you're gonna cancel your pre-order.
----ITS A TRAP!!!---- |

Originally posted by bcbully No one should have to pay money for a beta. No one should sell an MMO for 60 bucks. And this game will fail for one reason. Publishers are out of sorts with the developers. Early on when the game was announced the dev talked about public dungeons and how well they worked in DAoC and I thought "hell yeah, public dungeons rock" then a few months later "oh but don't worry we have phasing, and instances, and singleplayer quest based leveling!" bs. You can't have those AND public dungeons, they don't work. I assume the WoW features were shoe horned in by the devs. |
