Top 5 Reasons to Play the Elder Scrolls Online

4. Off-The-Rails Character Classes

Top 5 Reasons to Play The Elder Scrolls Online - Character SystemOne of the aspects that has appealed the most to me throughout the Elder Scrolls franchise has been the wide-open character class system. Or, rather, the persistent lack of one. The skill-based character allows for much more freedom and customization - you can totally tailor your character to how you want to play the game, rather than be forced along a progression track by a rigidly-defined class.

Most MMOs use very narrow classes with a tree of trainable skills that make that character really good at one job. With the Elder Scrolls games, your character was defined by his actions; if he chose to wear full plate armor while sneaking around stealing things and killing enemies with magic, he got better at all of those things. Picking a "class" at the start of the game was optional. You could invent your own class with the collection of skills and powers you wanted to use.

TESO will be somewhat more restrictive than previous Elder Scrolls games. It will use set classes that come with unique skill sets, like special attacks, magic and other powers, and will level up by gaining experience rather than by skill-usage. But these classes will not be gear-restricted. There's no reason your character can't swing a tiny dagger while wearing full plate armor, or pair a mighty two-hander battleaxe with fire spells. Whether you'd actually want to do these things is debatable, but that decision is yours to make. Your class is a jumping-off point rather than a career commitment.

Top 5 reasons not to play Elder Scrolls Online:

1) Skyrim
2) Skyrim with mods
3) Oblivion
4) Morrowind
5) Just to show the developers that going MMO is a death knell to their franchise (I am still waiting for Warcraft 4 and KOTOR 3 btw).

ESO is not developed by Bethesda Game Studios, who will continue working on their singleplayer games (Fallout and TES), so don't worry.

Elder Scrolls Online: ZeniMax Online Studios
Elder Scrolls Series: Bethesda Game Studios
World of Warcraft: Blizzard Entertainment
Warcraft Series: Blizzard Entertainment
KOTOR: BioWare
SWTOR: BioWare

The only way ESO is gonna be worth a damn is if some/most of the devs behind TES works on it, if not it'll be a WoW/GW2 hybrid with a TES skin.

Have you seen the videos / read about the game? It is already quite certain that it will not be a WoW/GW2 hybrid.

BGS and ZOS do communicate, and BGS do help ZOS with development, but BGS are not spending a lot of time on it. They are focused on their own games. ZOS have access to all the lore from TES without anyone from BGS having to tell them anything, as it is all written down.

Having people who are used to developing singleplayer games making a MMO doesn't really make it worth any more than if people who are used to developing multiplayer games are working on it.

if some/most of the devs behind TES works on it, if not it'll be a WoW/GW2 hybrid with a TES skin

In addition to the above comments regarding the feasibility of TES6, I have to address your point that the first five games are reason enough to avoid ESO. We've already played those games to death, and they have no social element. If you prefer single-player games, that's fine. Just quit whining about other peoples' interests.

Awareness creation alone is insufficient. Questioning should ascertain the nature of consumer comments

It is no use saying, 'We are doing our best.' You have got to succeed in doing what is necessary.

My personal top 3:
1. Not having to create a new character for every TES game
2. Finally finding an MMO in a world I'm actually bothered about
3. TES with friends! What else needs saying? lol

large info! I recently came across your blog and have been reading along. I considered I would depart my first comment. I don’t understand what to state except that I have.

There's also a pandemic lizard-flu, mad wizards everywhere, demonic Daedra popping up more often than usual, and evil omens in the stars. yachtbooker.com

And while complexity has given ground to accessibility over the past few titles, outstanding quality has always been paramount. It stands to reason, then, that the MMO iteration of this acclaimed series should be just as outstanding. yachtchartersweden.com
