What's the big deal about this? If you don't like it, you don't have to buy it? Does it affect the PC version? Are you laughing because you're happy? Are you laughing in jest?
Yes it will, It'll be dumbed down to work with a controller.
Oh yes. It must be impossible to have 2 ways of options for controls on a game /eyeroll.
It's not that It's impossible, It's that plenty of games have totally fucked it up in the past.
For example skyrims crappy console interface, that lucky PC players could mod out.
I'm not suggesting it will be good or terrible. I'm just confused on some of the extreme reactions some of the people have already been posting when they don't have all the information yet. It's just childish is all. Maybe it's going to be on the ps4 and it's going to be mandatory to use a USB keyboard and mouse? Who know's? My point is just that some people need to relax and try to understand a situation with the proper information instead of simply having knee-jerk reactions and possibly spreading misinformation or just outright lies. Just a pet peeve of mine :P.
It's not childish or 'knee-jerk' to base an initial reaction upon past experiences. I highly doubt a developer would make a game for a console and force users to purchase a keyboard and mouse to play it, that's absurd. And given past performance in regards to porting games from console to PC.. yeah, valid cause for concern here.
Still worth following? Yes. But the concern is there.
It's actually a good business move if nothing else, if pure sales are what's important.
Due to frequent travel in my youth, English isn't something I consider my primary language (and thus I obtained quirky ways of writing). German and French were always easier for me despite my family being U.S. citizens for over a century. Spanish I learned as a requirement in school, Japanese and Korean I acquired for my youthful desire of anime and gaming (and also work now). I only debate in English to help me work with it (and limit things). In addition, I'm not smart enough to remain fluent in everything and typically need exposure to get in the groove of things again if I haven't heard it in a while. If you understand Mandarin, I know a little, but it has actually been a challenge and could use some help.
Also, I thoroughly enjoy debates and have accounts on over a dozen sites for this. If you wish to engage in such, please put effort in a post and provide sources -- I will then do the same with what I already wrote (if I didn't) as well as with my responses to your own. Expanding my information on a subject makes my stance either change or strengthen the next time I speak of it or write a thesis. Allow me to thank you sincerely for your time.

there will be UI mods in TESO as well i believe.
Why do you believe that? Have they said anything about it at all or are you just hoping?

If it's a better DCUO it could work. The people who should be most dishearted by this information are those who planned on getting it for PC.
But they say they will be building each game for that system right? So there won't be any direct ports from one to the other. This might not be correct information, I thought I recalled hearing / reading that somewhere..
/Meh
It's good for Playstaion 4 though. I loved EQ: Online Adventures on my PS2, and had some fun with DCUO on PS3 too..
MMO's on Consoles especially the Playstaion should have some good improvements. I think Sony has a bit more experience in the Console MMO market than Microsft, Nintendo at this point.
Although Nintendo did have Phantasy Star Online a kind of MMO before any of the other two really gave in to the consideration.
PM before you report at least or you could just block.
This is a next generation system, not a super nintendo. I have a keyboard, keybpad and mouse for my ps3. I use a controll for GW2 and Rift. I played Final FAntasy xi on the playstation 2 and it was one of the better mmo experienced of my life (with a keyboard).

Hey Guys, ESO will be released for XBox One and PS4!!!
If it's such a big deal for you... dont play.
Really is that easy.
Yea, I guess if you don't include all the hours I spent following the game, reading up on the game, talking with friends about the game, chatting on forums about the game, etc. Then yea, it's really that easy.
better get used to the vast majority of AAA mmo's being console releases as well. the tech on this latest gen of consoles has finally caught up enough to make running MMO's a possibility, not to mention the fact that most people who play video games worldwide do it on game consoles and not on computeres. the easiest way for publishers to make sure they see a return and a profit on their games is to get it out to the broadest market possible and consoles are it.
if you don't like controllers, just plug a usb mouse and keyboard into the console and away you go.

I've never been happier to hear that consoles will be getting this game. Console MMOs are always more fun to play. They are usually much more action based, and require more skill and dexterity. DCUO, PSO/U are some of my favorite games of all time.
I'll likely still play it on my PC, but I'll gladly use my controller. I'll also be getting a PS4. The only problem I've ever had with Console MMOs is the menu UI. DCUO's is still an issue. PSO wasn't so bad.
Yeh, I don't see the big deal about this. The new consoles will be more powerful than the average PC specs. If designed properly, MMOs can easily be played with a controller.
I don't suffer from insanity, I enjoy every minute of it.
This wasnt obvious or anything. The recent rebirth of PC gaming is on the merit of silly facebook games and kidde tablets and what not. The old school guys who still buy top of the line PC's because they just want to play the latest games on the highest graphics are a dying breed. Bury them in peanut m&m's, in 2 years you have a fossil fuel.
Consoles are bigger money makers, as the predictable comment about console ports show, developers target the audience on console, then shove the left overs at the pc gamers where possible.
Now that console tech has caught up to where persistent online worlds are a viable option for them, I foresee no impending end to these "LOL hahahaha" threads.
Just the reality of it. MMO's on PC are begging for players, they cant give them away. The ship has sailed.
No problem i'll have both and keep on upgrading my pc when i need to.
Top of the range PC and the best console on earth will be great fun and on my 55in samsung smart tv.

Yep, not unexpected for this development team to bring TESO to the consoles where all the TES players are...that don't play MMOs...as can be plainly seen by the complete lack of big selling console MMO games.
TES = SPRG and big on both the consoles and PC
MMORPGs = low sellers on consoles because most console players don't play them
So yeah, the move fits in with the rest of their ideas, disconnected from reality showing a complete lack of understanding of not only their target audience, but the genre as a whole.

ill play it on PC WITH a controller even if it was PC exclusive, so i dont see whats the problem there.

Fair Enough.
I'm a veteran PC gamer too but damn...the narrowmindedness of some people....wow.
I'll wait to play before making sweeping judgements.
