Well he's done Morrowind, Oblivion, Skyrim, so I'm assuming he will want to contribute again.  I hope he does, since I love his work.

Me too. Gah. Epic themes. He was asked to make the ESO theme sound older since it takes place hundreds of years prior to Morrowind and a thousand before Skyrim. Also war-like since thats whats going on in-game. I'd say he succeeded.

After watching that overview I want this game way more than I already did before, christ.

Agreed.

I loved how Skyrim had more Morrowind themes in it. Gave me hell of nostalgia.

Personally, I don't play games with monthly fees. I don't recall hearing ESO's cost or payment setup.

They haven't decided on it yet.

I'm hoping its not $15 a month or something like that. MMO's can move off of that model.

Fun>Logic in that case. If stealth didn't cost stamina you'd have hundreds of players doing it at the same time against each other.

RPGs are well-known to use reality-bending game mechanics to balance it out. Would mana exist if not to restrict gamers from spamming it non-stop?

RPGs bend reality when they need to.

In the case of stealth, they don't need to.  If the worry here is that  unlimited stealthing will break PvP, then the solution is  to change the detection mechanics, NOT stealth itself.   As it stands, stamina-based stealth  may be one of the  most  lazy  'solutions'    anyone can think up. 

Even aside from its direct illogic, it  forces rogues to alter their builds and become warrior-like with 'endurance' if they wish to use the most *basic*  rogue skill in existance effectively.  Of course this is only a major concern if you happen to be an RPG fan.   But ESO isn't an RPG anyway, its an MMO, which is a totally different beast all together, so nevermind.

That's precisely the reason why I'm staying away from it and most other MMOs, I don't want to pay monthly fees just to play it and the alternative isn't all that wonderful either. F2P and microstransactions are worse, especially when it goes from F2P to Pay 2 Win which is ALWAYS a possibility.

If it is, I won't be buying it. I have certain standards and rules I don't break. And paying that, plus an Xbox Gold fee? Eh...

You mean stamina wise? Because its already been said that light armor's purpose is to allow the most mana usage and movement, medium armor allows for the most stamina and such things, and heavy armor is to take as much damage as you possibly can.

Unless I'm screwing that up, thats how I remember it.

Pfft, I COULD get it on X1, but I've made the choice to get it on Mac.

Keyboard+Mouse>Keyboard+Trackpad>Controller.

Plus, PC/Mac is one megaserver, in relation to X1's megaserver and PS4's megaserver.

Then you've got the fact that its an MMO, communication is key, and that'll be easier on a notebook, so yeah.

I'll be fine paying a monthly subscription if its low. I think I'd rather just pay for a year or so at once if possible.

I agree with you.

I only started playing TOR because it became free to play, but the limits they put on has to be the biggest turnoff... -_-

Strangely, that trailer was more detracting for me. The chaos of PvP is not what I desire at all, and that lockpicking system looks bad for my gameplay. What I would prefer is to run solo, or at the most with a small group exploring and looking at Tamriel at dawn and sunset. Personally, I have no interest in PvP at all, as I will always lose; have nothing to gain.

Honestly, this thread is the place where I've found the most anti-ESO opinions(by anti I just mean non-interest, rather than outlandish over the top hate)on the web.

Everywhere else I go, people are pretty interested. I'm happy about that, because I dig the idea that I can play ESO completely by myself if I wanted to, but can also team up with other players and friends at any time and go do other things.

Smart thing about ESO and ZOS is that at no point have I heard any stupid comment like, "ESO is gonna be a WoW Killer" or some stuff like that.

They're just focusing on making ESO awesome without trying to hype it up ridiculously. At least for now.


Personally I'm stoked for ESO, and my steam friends seem to be, too.

I know it will probably get boring before too long - MMOs are once you've done a sizeable amount of the content - although there's that nagging possibility: what if the world (and therefore day to day gameplay) were as good as skyrim?

Also, easy to consider it a different product, even if it bombs it's not like Skyrim will seem less good.

Hope everyone's signed up for the beta :)

All the PVP content is in Cyrodiil, so if you don't want PVP, stay away from there and you're set.

Well, its being built just like an Elder Scrolls like Skyrim in that there's tons of stuff to do all over the place, and you have to actually look out for those things, so I KNOW there will be ridiculous amounts of time spent getting things done.

I've played over 420 hours of Skyrim. And they've said that it would take around 600 hours to do everything in the game, and thats depending on how much you want to complete and how fast you get things done.

As a stealther, things usually take time. So I know that it'll be a looong ride.

That makes me happy.

While possibly true up to 50th, the End Game material appears to be thru Cyrodil to the other areas of the map. And even at 50th, I doubt that I am able to give anyone of equal level much of a contest, let alone want to....

In my opinion, all PVP should be instanced away from PVE content. Many people don't like PVP, and many do. Forcing them to co-exist in the same instance-space is great for the people who love PVP, and a PITA for those who don't.

I like the way GW2 handles it; you go to separate PVP maps to do PVP. Everyone else gets to enjoy the open world, free from PVP concerns.

More on topic; have had a rough week so the only thing I find myself doing in Whiterun is, after loading a reference saved game, slaying everyone not essential. :P Eventually look forward to playing seriously again though. Beautiful game with fun environments.

I also prefer the way Guild Wars in general handles PVP. I personally do enjoy and I've been quite good at PVP in most MMO's, but I prefer my Role-Playing routes in relation to why I am playing a MMO. Though, ESO does look to have an interesting aspect in terms of that "mega-server", but I'll wait till release and see how bad launch day is, like all other MMOs.
