Hmmm. If Star Wars is failing this hard. Elder Scrolls is going to fail even harder.

Star Wars: The Old Republic has lost 400,000 subs since February

Suggestion, go F2P or get destroyed.

SWTOR had a pure themepark where there was very little to do when you got to the end of the ride. ZOS is smarter than that.

What worry me is TES 6. Of cours TESO is not developed by Bethesda, but what happens when TES 6 coms out? Those who have played the TESO will have seen every province and locations already, wich will kill the exploration of TES 6.

I dont know if the TES 6 reigon will be in the online game and i hope not.

120 hours to reach level cap. That's not a lot. Say you play for 1 hour a day, that's only 4 months. But knowing the addicting nature of MMOs, people will be playing for much longer than 1 hour a day.

svcks for people who don't like switching characters.

I don't think you understood me. The big difference is that ZOS is planning on keeping it's playerbase entertained at end game, not encouraging them to 'reroll and see another story.' Having their game designed around a persistent PVP experience at end game is very smart: players will be endlessly making content to keep each other busy as the devs work on new content to add to the game. SWTOR's silly pvp instances didn't cut it.

I'm not trying to sound condescending, but it really is the difference between a team that has only made single player games coming up with an MMO on their own (Bioware) or a team of pros from the best MMO houses in the industry assembled to make the best MMO of all time.

Yeah, at this point it takes some faith, but I think as more and more gets revealed you guys are going to come around.

TESO will be the best Elder Scrolls game ever plain and simple. Multiplayer is what this series needed and it finally got it. You should be thanking Zeni because it was only a matter of time before this franchise got left behind when multiplayer is the future.

Multiplayer is the future the same way all digital consoles and media are the future. They're held up by people who don't know how cruel reality can be, nor how determined human beings can be in voicing their say as consumers.
