Zenimax Online Studios released today a new gameplay video of the upcoming MMORPG The Elder Scrolls Online, set for release in April 4th for PC and Mac and in June for PS4 and Xbox One.
Zenimax Online Studios, the developer behind The Elder Scrolls Online, is currently working on a brand new engine for a multiplatform title.
"It’s really special to be at the ten year anniversary."
Wccftech checked out the new Scribing system coming to Elder Scrolls Online with Gold Road and interviewed Creative Director Rich Lambert.
Looks really great & I can't wait for this one to go live.
Unfortunately, we're being ignored when asking for a beta testing date for console at this stage (Xbox one is where I'll be playing it), but I'm eager as to give this game a go.
The PC testers though have a lot of positive praise for this release & these clips make me want to play it more.
Bring it on!
I was skeptical at first (pre-NDA lift). The closed betas I was in left a bad taste in my mouth but I never got over level 5 (not a fair outlook on an MMO.) Since the NDA has lifted, reading comprehensive legacy beta tester impressions, watched tons of videos, I have done a complete 180 on this game!
This is one of the first times that I have seen an NDA lifted providing mostly POSITIVE results/impressions from the legacy closed beta players (this is admittedly maybe lack of remembering.. just honestly don't remember).
The AvAvA w/scrolls (relics for those DAoC people like myself) and emperor crowing, crafting system, Level 50+/50++ (Veteran Rank) system, lycanthropy (werewolf)/vampirism system with abilities, etc, this game is going to have so much to offer!
Now, I know that the initial cost + 15/month seems steep, but this is only a new problem due the crappy F2P system that so many games do now (people end up spending MORE on buying content/vanity). People forget that this is not new. WoW/EQ/DAoC/EQ2/EvE/etc initially cost $60 + 15/month, plus $30-50 per expansion. In reality, $.50 a day is NOT that much for entertainment. Most AAA games cost roughly $60 on purchase and a lot of those games do not even provide two months of content and THEN they shove DLC down your throat.
If you feel that the game doesn't deserve the monthly payment, well that's one thing that is a "too each their own." But to say, as I've seen a lot around here, that 15/month is a ripoff but not really talking about the quality, well you just maybe have never experienced how immersive MMO worlds can get.
This is just some food for thought. You are NOT an "idiot" or "cheapa@@" for NOT choosing to play. In the end, it's your money and enjoy how YOU spend it! :)
Hope to see you in ESO!
"extensive glimpse" lol
