I just went through the scans of game informer, and well. The game IS a WoW clone.

Really? How so?

So it has gnomes that can see under women skirts?

Ugh, only 3 races too.

Ugh, only 3 races too.

Which ones?

Really typing anything into an image search just brings up this lol. http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?q=elder+scrolls+mmo&um=1&hl=en&sa=N&biw=1249&bih=566&tbm=isch&tbnid=JuOw4Zl4YVhvIM:&imgrefurl=http://chaotic-games.com/elder-scrolls-mmo/&docid=qJnR40UqVXxoLM&imgurl=http://chaotic-games.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/nerdsouthpark-e1331944963484.jpg&w=550&h=366&ei=wfiiT_TfAbTS4QSUw5zuCA&zoom=1&iact=hc&vpx=203&vpy=81&dur=1178&hovh=183&hovw=275&tx=130&ty=134&sig=105650706739528419948&page=1&tbnh=114&tbnw=152&start=0&ndsp=21&ved=1t:429,r:15,s:0,i:102

Which ones?

Argonian, Argojiit and Argosmer.

» Sun May 13, 2012 9:25 pm

Hehe, TESO: Argonians everywhere.

No, three factions, one of which makes no sense and another one which isn't supposed to exist for another 300 years.

Nine races.

Are you able to say where you found this info? I want to see it.

» Mon May 14, 2012 6:17 am

Really? How so?

From scans:

"Despite cleaving to genre standereds with classes, experience points, and progression....etc. The structure is instantly familiar to any TES fan with a compass pointing towards points of interest and hundreds of things to stumble across along the way. You maybe doing it from a third-person perspective and using a hotbar to activate skills, but the basic idea is the same".

Lol... is this a troll post? Is the June issue of Game Informer even printed yet?

» Mon May 14, 2012 3:35 am

I don't think 3 factions means 3 races, instead it's like the Empire and Republic in TOR and the Alliance and Horde in WoW.

Also OP, how did you see the scans so soon? the issue isn't even out yet, so unless I've misunderstood you completely, how do you know that it will be a clone of WoW?

» Sun May 13, 2012 9:17 pm

What scans, bro? Can you give us a link?

» Mon May 14, 2012 3:03 am

A clone of Morrowind I hope.

I have no reason to troll. And the scans I see certainly do not look fake, WAY to much detail and writing (and the screens are gorgeous btw). It would take a few weeks for some to put out this kind of work to make it seam legit.

This is what I was wondering. There is meant to be a screenshot, but isn't that meant to come tomorrow?

» Sun May 13, 2012 8:40 pm

Nope, TOU does not allow me to link scans.

Someone put scans/digital copies up online, that's that.

It's a Guild Wars 2 clone with a visual style that screams "not Elder Scrolls" with a complete and total disregard for existing lore.

He's not lying. There's already a scan circulating around the web confirming what he said.

Maybe some background then? Like how do you have access to scans of a magazine that isn't out for another month?

» Mon May 14, 2012 8:54 am

So link it?

Not allowed.

Just because it's 3rd person and hotkey-centric automatically makes it a WoW clone?
Besides it's not as bad as you think. Many people play TES in 3rd person (hell, they made it an effort for it to look good in Skyrim) and you use hotkeys on the PC anyway.

Ever heard of the word "leak"? Magazines typically finish their issues weeks or months prior to the month they are named after. And it isn't uncommon for them to get leaked.
