I can't believe that something so terrible that isn't even in any real public beta yet has this many rabid fanboys already. That's just highly unlikely. Plus, some of these accounts (Lord Blanco) seem pretty clearly created for the express purpose of posting in this thread.
Are you upset that in all of your nerd gamer glory, you haven't played the "public" beta? I've been in twice, it's the only reason i am a fanboy. Because i felt the game was whimsical and fun! And the breathtaking story lines were like a font of golden fun!

No, I didn't even bother signing up for the beta since I had the foresight to know that it would be a really sad (not even amusing) trainwreck from the get go.

15 years of MMO experience has served me well in smelling turds coming from a mile away. It's pretty hard not to spot shit at this point. There's nothing irrational about that.

If it looks like a duck, talks like a duck, and walks like a duck, it's probably going to be a pile of shit.

Dont you say? My guess would be Blanco and Nigel are the obvious secondary shill accounts to make the real shills seem legit in comparison.

Is platypus good? Seems like a platypus MMO would be entertaining, have a lot of features but would be buggy and not really do anything well.

I picked it up strictly to be casual but yeah it's midway between duck and platypus.
Yeah, it had potential to be a decent chicken (everyone loves chicken), but there's just too much "Because Japan" in it that ruins the experience + an embarassing lack of content given its development time (and tards are acting like it's some brand new, fresh mmo, which it's not).

I cannot sit idle any longer and have some depressive birds running around and whatnot, reading the infamous bias on this forum and I am not one to blatantly ignore an NDA, therefore I am just gonna ignore the NDA right now. First of all, I was in the PVP weekend in Cyrodiil, so tremble mortals, logged around 78-82 hrs and nearly everything Evil Utnayan (known asEl Diabloin my country) have said is a lie, and you have to believe me because I said I was in the Stress Test, and it is my gentleman's word.

1. The server was up 6 days before the Stress Test and he is still up right now, without any downtime mind you. There were a few server crashes with rollbacks, but as soon as server went up they gave everyone Skyrim for free (with all DLCs !) on Xbox Live ole account. Not bad considering it was the FIRST major test of Cyrodiil EVER, also there was rainbows with female elves riding unicorns right outside my window.

2. It is nothing like COD. I have a COD doctorate and I also have a Major in Hallway Sniping, if i tried to tell someone this game mirrored it, one would call me a fool. And that is if I don't feel quite amused first because of how silly that theory would be. If you want to know what it felt like, it is Dark Age of Camelot extraordinaire PvP with marvelous Skyrim gameplay and Mythic crafty developers - all of these would be quite rad, wouldn't they ? I would even say the perfume of it would indicate these elements go well together.

3. The zone is huge. <-- Oh good Sir, the zone can't be contained in a peasant engine, that's why glorious Zenimax hired a Hero Engine to handle the hugeness of the aforementioned zone.

4. The paintings are stunning. Several rascals on here saying they played it and the murals were old-fashioned : A - did not go to college. B - went to a different museum. or C - have diseased horses and cheap glasses, seeing those paintings as vulgar fox taxidermy or bohemian fresco on the walls.

5. Review on the club's digest were ectatic. A few lads did not change their religion on the spot, but they were easily taken down by Zenimax Inquisition Squad.

That is all I am going to say, cronies. Carry on !

Tastes like chicken, in that way people say it does to get you to try it but after you eat it you know they are full of shit.

Fuck, who am I kidding. Ill be there at launch day with bells on. Even if i get 1-3 months out of it (like all the other mmos in the past few years) so be it. Well worth the $50-60 entrance fee to smell a new mmo and be on the ground floor running.

I dont listen to UT. Even though I got to liking the guy and alot fo what he says is true, most of what he says is frothing at the mouth crazy. (He really has a weird fetish for old school devs)

If I listened to all the haters I would never had fun in 1/2 the games I tried and liked, at least for a while. SWTOR I enjoyed for a few months, TSW was good for a few months, shit even WAR, RIFT and Conan I had fun with for a few months each. They were all memorable to me in one way or another. I no longer see mmos as these life changing events that I need to devote years to. I think those times are over. I treat these things as games now and if you do this, every one of them has redeeming qualities. Even if they end up sucking in the end, its awesome to be a part of the community in these games starting out. Thats where I derive my pleasure from. And BTW this fits nicely with my current lifestyle, being a family man and all.

I'm sure many people will buy the game, but really it needs a lot more work. Ut has negged me before and I do think he has a personal vendetta against this game, or just likes hating. I have no idea if he has any real information or is just blowing smoke. I do know what I've seen, and as a huge Elder Scrolls fan, I want this game to succeed. Even if it's just co-op, it would be fun and worth the price and a few months sub. As of right now it's not going to keep very many people past the intro month.

The few people I've talked to all have the same response to playing the game: clunky. Take that how you will. It just is not a very fun game to play. I've been playing P1999 lately and it's interface and combat blow away ESO. How sad is that?

I really wonder if the TESO team has played Rift, GW2, or any newer MMOs. It doesn't feel like it to me, which is too bad.

The Junky empire has grown too large and it's now attracting the attention of Marketers (and massive banners). Obviously the only answer is to let a_skeleton_03 buy Draegen out and let the forums crash and burn. A little bit of scorched earth will quickly have these shills running for the hills.
You should see all the spam promotions I get in my email. Would you like to review Super Rainbow Unicorn Testicle Cup Holders? It's for the android!

No thanks.
