I think if they set it up as every region being available, a huge amount of quests, daedra quests, housing, etc. Basically skyrim, but multiplayer and fucking enormous. And even more fun.

Well, I noticed it mentioned three factions in that little blurb, which means the empire (which eventually wins, per the official Elder Scrolls history), the elves, and some other faction. That pretty much ensures that we'll have at least most of the main continent and the silly elf island (Summerset Isle, if I remember right) to play around with.

The daedra quests could be interesting, but the question is how to do them right, without screwing people over. I mean, they are supposed to be one of a kind artifacts, given out personally by each daedra. On the other hand, I suppose, since each one is basically just created effectively at the whim of the daedra, it could be possible for multiple copies to exist. It's also possible they could take the Bioware approach, and as far as the storyline is concerned, you're the only one who matters, and all the other players are just minions to facilitate your success.

As for housing, that could be tricky. They would have to decide if they want to instance it, or have a limited number of blocks for building houses. On one hand, being able to walk up to your house, and have people find it without you magically making them appear there would be awesome. On the other, I'd really hate to find out I can't have a house because everybody else bought all the space up.

So, I guess I'm interested in seeing how they put the game together. It could be interesting to watch, even if the game ends up sucking horribly (though I'd like to say I'm optimistic).

In Star Wars, the Empire loses.

I think with a big enough world, many players could be facilitated. Also, yes to instancing. Towns can be public, but make outside areas private. Look at how Guild Wars did their maps.

Housing could be done like Guild Ship towers, a common hub to a private instance that's kinda shared, or some other way.... dunno how though.


honestly, it could be a lot of fun turning a traditionally 1 player game into a massively multiplayer one.

This would be a definite "good bye" to DDO for me if this game is even halfway decent. Probably won't be out for years though .... Sooooooo....Anyone else want to run Guard Jung on elite .... Keep the streak alive ....  Undecided

Read somewhere, while surfing the web this week, its about 3 years away and also what makes the Elder Scrolls good is the fact that it isn't a MMO.

Why do i think they will just fuck this up?

Hmm i didn't say i read an actual date only that it was 3 year away, dunno if that's true and i highly doubt any date you will find is accurate, if your gonna post and be a douche try to actually use your brain.

There's a second thread about this just a little farther down that has more info and a scheduled release date of 2013 for both pc and mac.

If you're going to post, I suggest learning a bit of basic grammar. And also how to shut the fuck up.

Don't be a dumbass you know that date probably won't be accurate, your the one that needs better reading skill, but then i can understand why that's not all that great, your too busy trying not to die in fucking edragon on smrti.

So maybe your the one that should learn to shut the fuck up in a raid instead of running your fucking mouth and watch what is happening on your base.

I am absolutely sure I missed some.  What your failure in grammar has to do with this horrible gamer ability has in common is pretty much nil.

So my grammar on my second language might be a little off, it's still very understandable but well done to you sir for pointing this out even if you're fucking late on that front. 

What was your point other than being a fail douche ?

It isn't understandable.  Why would it be your second language? Everyone knows english is the most important language in the world.  You should have invested more time into learning it then whatever your other shit language is.  Then again, stupid people always compare others reading ability to their gaming ability.  So it shouldn't surprise anyone that not only are you failure at life, you are a failure at deciding what language should be your first.
