Been playing RPG''s for over 20 years. I used to manage 2 teams of Broadband Fault Diagnosticians for BT but that contract has ended. I now work in law enforcement admin.
Non consensual PVP is really a pain in the arse if you are interested in exploration and PVE. This was one of the main reasons I left early UO and DarkFall.
I might be tempted to give this a shot as it appears to have all the allure of UO without…
I quite like the fact that this game makes it quite difficult to build cash at lower levels. For a start it means the occasional gold seller will have a hard time of it.
I am lvl 20. I have levelled slow and explored a lot. I have about 20k in t…
Very well written article
Sadly while reading the comments I am reminded why I hardly every visit MMORPG.com anymore. Its not the site. Its not the staff. Its the grumpy kids. Every year most of the community seems to be a lot more grumpy, …
I really enjoyed the RVR in DAOC and have not since found a MMO with PVP that felt as satisfying. Seeing some of the old DAOC devs are working for ZeniMax this sounds right up my street.
Looking forward to Lvl 10
There are several references to the $200M or $250M cost of the game.... This has not been confirmed by ZeniMax and is probably a myth (started by Paul Tassi @ Forbes). It should be noted that Skyrim did cost over $200M and was profitable without a …
Why on earth should this be shocking or surprising? And where does the literal bit come in? I do not appear to be shocked metaphorically let alone literally.

AOC did it for the Tortage area and it worked wonders.
SWTOR did it for e…
Solo play is important to me as I sometimes work unsociable hours and therefore grab an hour or two of play at what would be around 4am local time. Not much chance for a good group at that time.
The article makes a fine point about choosing a path…
In order to make crafting truly worthwhile we need a good reason to craft. Such as
Weapons, Shields and Protective Clothing
Food, Potions and the like.
Arrows (please)
Accessories for pets & mounts Saddles with storage for example.

To quote the OP
Elder Scrolls Online must not only give fans of their vaunted series a compelling narrative and world to explore, but they must give them the freedom to explore that world in any way they wish.

Originally posted by Arglebargle Elder Scrolls Online is likely the closest you are going to get any time soon.
But, like you said, "There is just no way to go back and relive those great memories...."
Indeed as many of the DAOC dev crew ar…
3 player factions worked well in DAOC for several years and many of the DAOC team are now working for Zenimax.
As for TESO initially I was really up for this then my enthusiasm took a nose dive when I heard you could not explore the realms of t…
There has certainly been an increase in grumpyness and negativity across all game related forums in recent years. This is especially true where MMORPGs are concerned.
Pretty much every forum is full of " is going to be terrible because..."

How is this supposed to rock the gaming world on a single platform?
And despite the fact that I own a PS3 I know from experiece that PC's are a heck of a lot better for FPS games so would not play it for that reason alone.
CCP Fail
Yeah the typical tide of negativity is why I stopped posting on this site. I had checked these forums for years and all of a sudden the moan moan moan got to me and I went elsewhere.
Sadly wherever you go the gaming community is a moaning bunch…
Its interesting how many crystal balls there are on the MMORPG forums these days
Always knowing exactly what will happen and always negative. I honestly think no one will make a game that the naysayers will like as they are doomed not to like t…
I like it but it would be sooo much better if you could get a friend or friends to join you on your ship to operate the rear rotational gunnery while you fly and operate the main guns. Other players would have first person view of targets. Pilot …
