I see that this was published 10 days ago, but this is the first I've seen of it. (ESO posted it on their facebook page) Sorry if there was a thread about it back then. I think this article is a really good read. While this is an MMO and has such a high focus on playing with others, it really is nice to just go it alone some nights. Its true for most MMO players and especially true when involving TES. I think a lot of people will start off with this solo gameplay anyway, so setting it up where you just happen to run across other explores allows playing with other people to just flow in naturally with the TES style we're used to. It's a very thin line Zenimax is walking to make a TES MMO, but this article kind of sheds some light on how it could be done very smoothly and in such a way that will please most players.
