Seemed like nobody was really interested and there was nothing new for $15 a month.

Is it me or are a lot of these online games not too successful anymore? You've got the usuals that are going strong but nothing seems to really take off anymore.

It's a tired genre that isn't offering anything new. With EQ/UO/DAoC it was a new and exciting way to play for MUD and pencil and paper people, WoW catered to the masses with it's easier, less harsh, and solo friendly game play not to mention they had a huge brand to pull from.

I played the beta and wasn't really impressed. Don't think I'll be getting this one.

Seems like they should have just made another Elder Scrolls and made bank. There's a few other franchises that should have made a platform game and took the easy money.

I hope no one was expecting high quality bethesda products in the future because this game will sink them.

Expect mediocrity from this point forward. They realized a long time ago this game would suck but they're too far in to just cancel it.

Yes, this game will definitely sink them. A game's mediocrity, which they didn't develop, is going to transfer to their own development teams, and Elder Scrolls games will now suck.

The monthly expense is what will keep me away. That was pretty dumb.

I like the F2P model for the most part in games but sometimes the cost of buying items is outrageous. I play never winter online and some of the items are costly.

I bought it and I like it. Those jaded with the mmo genre, which seems to include the entirety of this board, will find reasons to hate it.

I'm waiting on ArcheAge.. after playing the beta, it's the best game in the genre on the market.

I just read about this game after your post and it sounds awesome.

They have all these features live already in the foreign versions?

Yeah I was too for a long time. I started looking at it about 3 years ago but lost interest because it seemed they were dragging it out a lot. The features sound awesome. I'm worried it may be a bit too Asian for my tastes though.
