100% Personal Storyline In Elder Scrolls Online


If the Elder Scrolls community can be called anything, it is passionate. So with the details that the Elder Scrolls MMO will, for better or for worse, share very minimal game features with its single player brethren, response has understandably been mixed. In an interview with Eurogamer, Game Director Matt Firor wants it known that the same style of epic storytelling will be present in the MMO, albeit in an instanced form. Firor likened the technique to killing Mehrunes Dagon in Oblivion:

The last thing you want to do is have the final confrontation with Mehrunes Dagon as he’s stomping across the Imperial City, and you see like 15 guys behind you waiting to kill him because they’re on the same quest.

The Elder Scrolls Online story will be 100% instanced and solo, according to Zenimax. You will be the one true hero. You and everybody else.

Elder Scrolls Online Trailer Brings Unlikely Allies


Unlikely allies are always my least favorite. The trailer for Elder Scrolls Online lays the foundation for Elder Scrolls Online: The dragonfires are unlit (similar to Oblivion) and enemies are once again poised to strike on Tamriel. It will take more than one warrior to fight off this threat.

Elder Scrolls Online is set for release in 2013, it is being developed by Zenimax Studios.

Bethesda Confirms Elder Scrolls MMO


Well, it is here. I’ve been talking about an Elder Scrolls MMO for at least a year here at MMO Fallout, from why I don’t think such a game would be a great idea rolling back to when we first got wind Zenimax was working on a secret project. Next month’s Game Informer has been revealed, and the cover story is Elder Scrolls Online.

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.

Players are no doubt enticed by the promise of three-faction player vs player combat, and is set for release in 2013.
