I'm sure hype will build up with beta, at the moment we have hardly seen anything. Give more info soon please.

and as such flames it none stop. 

the game was announced this summer

i dont see Titan or EQNext getting hype either

 

once they start showing game features -- hype will build

EQNext press http://EQ3Wire.com

MMORPGs are no longer about the mass multi-user anymore *sadly*

Could not care less about the FPS whack-a-mole combat. What bothers me (and I think most other TES fans) is that TESo will be a fixed faction game set in the TES world but basically be a WoW clone without the sandbox features that we love so much about TES :(

The lack of hype is because they're making a wow copy while slapping an TES sticker on it. It's an insult to both the TES series, and to the fans loving the franchise.

This game will crash and burn, and concidering the amount of bugs TES games are usually shipped with, I'm expecting TESO to have the worst release in the history of MMOs.

FPS 'whack-a-mole' combat is just about the only thing that won't get called a wow-clone these days.  And even then I wouldn't bet on it.

It isn't even the same developers..... Not even the same company..... Do you even have a clue? At least get the facts before making an opinion.....

They haven't released anything worth getting excited over other than the fact that it's a MMO set in the Elder Scrolls world. Also what is not to understand about the title? It uses the Elder Scrolls IP which is well known, and adds 'Online' so people realise it is a MMO.

You don't know what improvements they need to make because there is next to no information about anything to do with this game. Once we start seeing some videos and key features then you can start getting concerned.

I don't have the names of all devs working on the different ES games, so it's possible you got that right. Not the same company? They're subsidiaries under the same parent company, so that's nitpicking, at best, and you know it. Which again makes it completely possible that parts of the staff actually did work on other ES titles.

I may be wrong, but clueless? Nope. If you're going to educate me, at least provide some facts, else it's just trolling.

Where's all this wow copy nonsense come from.

Just about everything they've said Ao far screams DAOC COPY in really big letters.

It was actually pretty bad when it first came out.

Without heavy modding, it still is.

I just think the ultra hype era of upcoming MMOs is over.  Over the past year so many MMOs have been hyped to the sky and what came out on launch day was not what was expected and I think the MMO fans are becoming wiser to the fact that it is not very smart to hype a game you have never played and really don't know much about other then what the dev say it will be.
