I wonder if those Daru chests will function like the ones you see in Neverwinter. In Neverwinter the chests drop like candy but to open them up for the reward you have to spend cash to buy a key.

No idea how accurate the info is, but a website called vgchartz.com is estimating 300k box sales after 2 weeks. Don't know if that number includes digital downloads directly from Zenimax.

Hate to burst your bubble, but I'm fairly certain by the 4-6 month mark I will be moving on to some other game. That's pretty much been my MMO history for the past 10 years or so even if it's a MMO I like.

What was the bet?

In the two streams I watched, it reminded me of WoW combat. With that said, the streamers were doing low level PVE content and only fighting 1-2 mobs at a time so I don't think they were pushing the envelope very much.

How much, if any, of your excitement might be due to "new MMO smell" that often wears off after a few weeks of playing? I am definitely interested in this game based on Kedwyn's initial review. It sounds like this might be the first MMO (that I am aware of) since EQ1 where individual player...

I didn't know you were in the guild. Shoot me a tell next time you are on at the same time as me.

Rift is the only MMO I played at launch that wasn't "broken as fuck". I guess it's all subjective. If you browse thru the first few pages of the Customer Support forum, there are a few posts involving the technical infrastructure problems affecting the game. Most complaints about lag and...

Good to hear you guys who don't like the game are able to get your money back. Has any other MMO ever given full refunds like that? I've never quit one that I bought within the first month so I've never had to try to get a refund. I didn't make it past a month in Neverwinter but it was F2P...

If you are having major lag spikes or long loading screens, check your firewall configuration, especially if you use Windows Firewall, to see if ESO.exe is listed as an authorized executable. Can't paste the links, but on the Customer Service forums are two threads Major Lag Spikes and...

If you two ever get the hankering to play Oblivion or Skyrim on the PC again, I highly recommend you try some of these mods. Skyrim The ones with several million downloads are the ones to look at first. The Skyrim UI is a must have. It replaces the console friendly vanilla UI with one...

Is this your farewell to the thread then? If so I'm right there with you hoping EQNext is worth playing. See you in that thread once the game gets more meat to it.

Oh well. I'm done trying to reason with you. In the future, don't pretend you actually want to have a discussion about the game.

You left out the main part of the entire point. Creating an open world sandbox MMO is not the challenge. Creating that MMO with PVE content that dynamically autoscaled to your current level like TES games did is the challenge.

Once again, you totally missed the boat on what I actually wrote. Back when weapon swap lag was being discussed a couple weeks back, I pointed out a possible explanation. What YOU perceive to be weapon swap lag MIGHT actually be a case of the mob you are fighting stunning you but you don't...

Is that ass-talk again? EQ1 zones were gated by levels no different than TESO, WoW, Rift and pretty much every other MMO out there.

You would have an outstanding point if I only posted in one forum here. As ArcheAge gets closer to release, I'll probably spend more time over in that thread. Do you think people will get all bent out of shape if I like that game?

What we have here is a classic failure to communicate. Either I have done a poor job putting my thoughts into words, your interpretation of what I wrote is lacking, or worst case, you want to win an argument so bad you twist my words out of context, put words in my mouth I never said, etc. No...

Let's clear something up. I replied to someone yesterday about the creators of TES and founders of Bethesda also being the same people who founded Zenimax, the shit hit the fan, I got an infraction point, and then admitted my mistake of believing Weaver was still one of the decision makers at...

We could if you were willing to explain the basis for your opinions and have a real discussion. Unlike some people here, I wouldn't call you a faggot, shill, etc if I disagreed with you. Utnayan and Kedwyn picked up the ball so I'll just respond to them. No to the VR1 question. Real life...

What is it exactly I am defending this time around? I'm beginning to think anytime I post in this thread it immediately causes some people to forget how to understand basic English.

OK that clarifies things a bit. What are these design flaws in ESO that you think the original TES devs like Howard disapproved of? Only reason I ask is because IMO vanilla out of the box Oblivion, Skyrim and Fallout 3 were not very good single player RPGs. IMO Zenimax/Bethesda purposely...

Dude is the corncob stuck up your ass getting painful yet? Chill the fuck out. If I'm not certain I understand the point someone is making, I will ask for clarification.

Are you insinuating something along the lines that Howard is similar to other famous designers in the 90s like Koster, Gariottt, McQuaid etc who think because they were successful a long time ago their shit doesn't stink and everyone should listen and follow what they say which in turn makes...

You are correct but that wasn't the point I was trying to make. I am well aware Firor/Sage were not part of the original TES design team.

Who here is saying that? Is this like Vitality earlier in the day where you are attacking me for something I never even said?

You should rage quit if it bothers you that much.

My original post on this was made under the belief that Weaver, who created Zenimax along with Altman, was still an executive at Zenimax. I guess that is no longer correct. My mistake.

Are you talking about 5 second lag in Cyrodil or 5 second lag in VR5 torch dungeons or both?

TESO has some design problems I don't particularly care for but I don't see a reason to come here and whine and complain about it incessantly like some people do. There are several criticisms about the game (bank bug, the widespread bannings of innocent players, lack of nameplates, the duping...

Do you not think Firor reports directly to Weaver and Altman and the other suits at Zenimax? Btw what it is about TESO that causes all the people here not playing it to get so pissy about it?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but if Bethesda is originally responsible for the Elder Scroll series, and those same people who created Arena are also the same people in control at Zenimax, then what exactly is incorrect about pointing out that the same people have been in control of the Elder Scroll...

What has got you upset this time? Pointing out that Zenimax has been in control of the Elder Scroll series since its outset? Were you not aware Zenimax and Bethesda were owned by the same people?

Umm, Zenimax has been involved with the Elder Scrolls series going all the way back to game #1 Arena. They have been in control of the franchise since Day 1.

FYI there was a Q&A on Craglorn a week or so ago and it was confirmed that you can take as long as you want in the 12 man raids and still get the full loot drops from bosses. The timers are just for guild ?p?en bragging rights.

Nice find. The Fallout series is my favorite RPG series of all time. Finally glad to see that a MMO appears to be in the works.

If there is a way to copy paste hyperlinks on an IPhone, I don't know how to do it. The post is titled "Ex employee or troll" in the Customer Support English forum.

Personally I think resorting to strawman arguments and putting words in people's mouth that they never said is bad form. Why anyone even wants to argue over it is beyond me. Numerous posters here have stated VR content is more challenging. Pointing out that is by design to encourage grouping...

FWIW someone named Garbrac linked to this post on the official forums asking if it were true. A ZOS employee stated there have been no layoffs yet.

Did you have an Emily Littela epiphany and realize you were arguing against something I never even said?
