Elder Scrolls Online

those two said what I expected them to say, a Skyrim looking interface pasted over a World of Warcraft system. you have to give up 90% of your immersion to have multiplayer. that is too high a cost for many people.
they are not ready.

when they are able to take a fully modded Skyrim and adapt it for massive multiplayer, then they will be ready.

for now we are stuck in a single player world.

I agree, I've also heard talk of a subscription system that could be implemented.
I don't know if it will be a pay to play or a pay for upgrades system but ether way if it's true then I very much doubt that I'll be playing this game on release.

So now that the NDA has lifted LINK who's been playing the beta and what do you think of the game.
I've only participated in a small part of the beta mainly because I just haven't had the time to play it, but what little I have played hasn't really excited me.
To start with I'm not a big fan of this type of game ( I much prefer the single player option games like Oblivion, Skyrim, etc.) although I did play quite a bit of Guild Wars when it first came out, but even the it was the single player part of the game.
I'm not saying I wont be getting this when it comes out just don't know if I will stick with it.

Correct me if I am wrong, the online part of the game will only be held at the province of Cyrodil and at some public dungeons scattered around the continent, there's still a massive world to explore on single player. The developers also said they were going to release more explorable areas after launch, such as Helghate and Alinor.

I actually plan to get this game because of the massive open world, not because of the online features.

ZeniMax announce that this game will cost $15 a month subscription to play, that's on top of the price to buy the game in the first place.
This is a big disappointment to me and I will probably not be getting it on release.

Yes, Grumpy told me something similar. About 10 Euro/Pounds a month is rather steep TBH.

Maybe skip the WoW/Elder Scrolls combo and wait for the Skyrim sucessor. Even if it can be fun to play.

And you can bet you will need DLC to stay competitive as well.

There goes my hopes of owning/playing this game. Monthly subscription games are a rip-off

They have been quoted as saying new content will be added every 6 week or so to justify the monthly fee but it's still way to much a month in my opinion.

I already have one, but I won't be getting this game when it comes out, I don't like this thing of monthly subscription, thanks anyway.
