ESO is going to be extremely dumbed down, just look at the success of the franchise the dumber they make the game the more popular and money they get. /sadface
It is just upsetting to see something that people have hoped for since playing Morrowind turned into nothing more than a standard MMO a la Wow.
Not even the TES combat that is so important will be in it nor will the free form gameplay.
It is very sad really.
How could Bethesda get it so wrong? Are the suits that out of touch with the game players? How can they see the popularity of Oblivion and Skyrim and then go make a product that is nothing like them? Where is the logic? Do they think that people do not read, see and discuss interviews like this?

Very sad and very strange.
Bad bad bad move.
omg you hoped for a elder scrolls mmo while playing morrrowind too ;D omg me to and i dident even know what mmos were back then. i just thought an elder scrolls game were everyone could play at once together would be super cool.
._. then one day i turned on my old computer and found mmo's(maplestory)
I think many will be disappointed with this game, it is not really an Elder Scrolls MMO, it is a DAoC II. We all know how bad Matt messed up that game, and you trust him to not do that with this game? Why do game companies keep resurrecting failures like Matt and giving them second chances? Granted, some people actually do learn by their mistakes, but it is not a high percentage.

I would have been a bit more positive with my initial response to TESO if Matt Firor (of DAOC Fame) had lined out something different for the game, but all indications are he is just doing a DAOC2:Elder Scrolls. He didnt even attempt to aim for something different. Level/Class based, TAB target, 3way Race=Faction PvP. Same thing he did 10 years ago.
Maybe he gets it right this time. Maybe it becomes a balance clusterf**k. I guess we shall see
Tried: EQ2 - AC - EU - HZ - TR - MxO - TTO - WURM - SL - VG:SoH - PotBS - PS - AoC - WAR - DDO - SWTOR Played: UO - EQ1 - AO - DAoC - NC - CoH/CoV - SWG - WoW - EVE - AA - LotRO - DFO - STO - FE - MO - RIFT Playing: Skyrim Following: The Repopulation I want a Virtual World, not just a Game. ITS TOO HARD! - Matt Firor (ZeniMax)
I was pleased that Matt Firor touched on how ESO plans to have elements that appeal to explorer type gamers. Hopefully these "treasures" won't always appear at exactly the same spot after someone has discovered it.
In any case, I plan on checking ESO out.
star wars the old republic did the same thing they had hidden chest and small perma buffs to find
For god's sake I just hope they get the feel and lore right. Don't try to take X-Men and give them uniform black suits. Don't take Dragon Ball Z make a movie of it and get EVERYTHING wrong. Keep it true to Elder Scrolls please. Anyone playing this game other than another mmo will be playing it because it is The Elder Scrolls.....not some other lore set. Don't try to be anything other than what has wrought you a very loving and loyal fanbase. .........oh and please keep the books

Good call.
Although I wont be playing this game, I hope it turns out great.
Asking Devs to make AAA sandbox titles is like trying to get fine dining on a McDonalds dollar menu budget.
