Developed by the team at Zenimax Online Studios, The Elder Scrolls Online merges the unmatched exploration of rich worlds that the franchise is known for with the scale and social aspects of a massively multiplayer online role-playing game. Players will discover an entirely new chapter of Elder Scrolls history in this ambitious world, set a millennium before the events of Skyrim as the daedric prince Molag Bal tries to pull all of Tamriel into his demonic realm.

The Elder Scrolls Online is scheduled to come out in 2013 for both PC and Macintosh.

Oh wait, this should be in the MMORPG section.

Well there's the last nail in the coffin of what used to be an interesting setting.

 

[Excidium]

TES already plays like an MMO. At least you'll be able to kill all larpers baking bread.

 

[sgc_meltdown]

will other players be scaled to my level

 

[Grim Monk]

Next it will be announced that "Fallout 4" will be a MMO...

 

[TripJack]

wait so it's not even being made by bethesda it's being done by other zenimax team?

maybe the game will actually be good then

 

[Ulminati]

So are the 3 dragons eating each other or vomiting each other up?

Will it allow me to run furry sex dungeon graphic tweak mods?

 

[Metro]

I never really cared for the Elder Scrolls lore. Morrowind had cool exploration but... meh.

Well, project lead is Matt Firor, producer of DAoC.

But the lore is the best thing the setting has going for it.

Well personally it sounds like a potential good thing to me, as I thought DAoC was a pretty cool MMO.
Seems like he's also produced several MUDs in the 90's.
I guess it's better than like, Todd being project leader or something.

Isn't that the plot of Oblivion, just with Molag Bal filling in for Mehrunes Dagon? Lazy.

"I used to be an adventurer like you... to hear the rest of my story please go to Stony Brook Farm and bring me back six (6) knees, six (6) arrows and slay ten (10) mudcrabs. **NEW QUEST ADDED**"

 

[felipepepe]

Are they realy gonna make a MMO with that shitty first-person combat system, or they are just going to take Bland MMO™ and throw in ES lore?

 

[evdk]

the daedric prince Molag Bal tries to pull all of Tamriel into his demonic realm.

Wait, isn't Molag Bal the Deadric Prince of Rape?

I believe so.

That fucking face.

 

[Clockwork Knight]

Everyone will be raped to death should the heroes win fail.

fixed

 

[Crispy]

Just came. When is pre-order available?

Edit: On closer inspection, this doesn't look good.

 

[Achilles]

Will wait until f2p.

 

[markec]

Next it will be announced that "Fallout 4" will be a MMO...

Im fine with it if they get Obsidian to make Fallout 4 single player spin off.

 

[IDtenT]

I must say, I expected this 5 years ago already.

 

[Crispy]

We need to start planning our Codex clan, which we will majestically call "I Love Oblivion!", now.

I will be leader.
