Rory Young from Game Rant writes: "It’s time to face the facts: single player role-playing experiences without online functionality are a dying breed. Bethesda Softworks, the deliverers of the “Horse Armor” that started a DLC revolution, knows this better than most. After all, they’re one of the few companies still producing successful standalone single-player RPG titles, i.e. Fallout 3 and Fallout New Vegas. Over the past year though, evidence has leaked showing that Bethesda is preparing for a shift in paradigm… an MMO is in development.
Last night saw the surprise announcement of Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim at the Spike TV Video Game Awards. Perhaps the greatest surprise went unrealized by most: Skyrim’s release date is set for late 2011, the same time-frame Bethesda’s MMO was originally scheduled for."

Ryan Palmateer from RnKProductionsCo has posted a five minute video showcasing his multi-screen set up for getting the best experience from the newly released Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.
The video includes the opening Skyrim intro and a few minutes of gameplay footage. While the visual experience of seeing more lush environments and having an enhanced tactical view of the surroundings is beneficial, Ryan has stated he’s run into some minor technical issues with the three monitor set-up having some in-game menus being unusable. Perhaps with more PC gamers running into this problem, Bethesda might release an update to fix this issue.

I hope not....
A multiplayer co-op yes but not a MMO please not
I'm sure it isn't. Well...I hope it isn't.
If its an mmo then i wont buy it, ill just replay TES III.
I don't think it's a dying breed. In 2007 an unknown single play rpg called The Witcher sold more than 1 million copies.
Where is death in that ?? It's up to the companies. Make a decent single play rpg and it will sell, no matter the day and age.
