[QUOTE=Dudemanguy12;398512]Dunno, the combat in this game looks just as dull as any other Elder Scrolls game.

The Storyline, I personally do not like how we're going back in time, and yet we see a faction composing of nords, DUNMER AND ARGONIANS.

And the Subscription model doesn't really work well in the west. If you think about it, WoW and Everquest were the only MMORPGs that thrived with the model for their times.


As for my MMO of choice, I'm looking forward to Everquest Next. I am interested in Warhammer 40k: Eternal Crusade, saw behaviour's recent interview, looks like they're not making a shovelware this time. And if World of Darkness has a reasonable business model, I will definitely get my hands on that game.[/QUOTE]

The combat for you may be dull, but for me, it's a breath of fresh air after your typical "click your target, press ` to autoattack for the entire fight while your dodge/parry/riposte skills are passives that just RNG away, and maybe press your ability hotkeys when they're off cooldown."

I will agree Storyline is meh, and I'm not to attached to it. The only Elder Scrolls game I've played is Skyrim, so I don't know/care enough about the "Tamriel" world to get angry at any lore-breaking mistakes they're making.

As an EverQuest veteran with over 2 years play time logged (and having subsequently tried multiple "F2P" MMO's), I have to say I don't mind and actually prefer the subscription model. Most F2P games, even if by some miracle they aren't P2W, will do a great job of rubbing the cash shop in your face throughout the whole game, just enough to make it annoying. So far as the dollar per entertainment hours ratio goes, subscription MMO's are the most efficient entertainment medium in existence. Bottom line, I've never gotten as attached to nor played as long on any F2P MMO as I did EQ.

I can't blame you for looking forward to EverQuest Next, though. That game is also looking to be great, although I'm seeing it through EQ fanboy's eyes, so my opinion is probably skewed on that matter.

[QUOTE=Dudemanguy12;398473]Already got an invite. Not too optimistic about the game...The Storyline, Combat, and the subscription model aren't really keeping me, but I'll gladly try out the beta.[/QUOTE]

Funny. You just listed the three reasons that I like the game.
