PvE vs PvP

Post » Tue Apr 09, 2013 10:02 pm

Hi, i want to talk about something that makes me worried, I'll try to be short, I'll mention others games and I'll give suggestions.

What is TESO about?
  • Enjoyable exploration, immersive world that gives us the real feeling of doing it, alone, with your friend, or with a lot of people, walking around you find a dungeon, and wonder what's inside, I don't know how it is at this time but areas of the map could be like skyrim, you don't know where they are till you get there, and the location of the really important places you can get it by a quest giver, the rest it's up to you to find out, think about how cool is that :)
  • Amazing quests, that gives you different ways to do it, nothing like kill 100 chickens and get me their eggs.
  • Craft also is looking cool, everyone is going to have craft skills, you have for example 10 points, you can master weaponsmith or spend 4 points in weaponsmith, 4 armorsmith and 2 jewelsmith, I think crafted items will be better than loot items, not sure about this information, but that's would be ok for me.
  • Character customization is awesome, weapon skills, guild skills, pvp skills, but I don't know about picking a point each level for health, magicka or stamina is a good idea if you can't refund it later, how can we know what's the best? i don't want to loose any point, and the ideia of everything is playable it's ok but we know, and they know this is not perfect, a mage wearing heavy armor shooting arrows can't be better than a light archer. And the BEST thing about characters is that we don't have SKILL ROTATION which seriously is the most boring thing in the world. (of warcraft)

And now the problems...

You get level 50, you want things to do, a pve player wants dungeons, dungeons, quests, dungeons achievements and dungeons. but wait a second, let's think about that, all Tamriel is there for you, this is not World of Warcraft, we won't have (I am right?) expansions with islands coming out from nowhere, turtle islands etc, And I hope they keep that way, making a "game for everyone" means player loses too, so they have to think about something else because wow raid does not fit in this game, raid is just a bigger dungeon that keeps you playing the game for more time which is good for the company at least, so this is I hope this game is going to be good, because the end game is about pvp, and that comes up with another problem, 3 alliances at war, and we can't invade their territory and kill their people? if you are a pve player there should be a system to flag you as one, you can not attack or be attacked, because If you are a pvp player and play as Elf I want you dead playing with my Nord, so if you want pvp, be aware that people can kill you everywhere, you are not safe, this is not going to kill the game, pvp is about that, I hate instanced battlegrounds with people you don't know, it just feels like playing a single player game with bots or coop but not multiplayer at all, I have to mention Lineage 2, the pvp system is just amazing, you are free, there is no team A, B or C, there are guilds that fight against each others over the world for castles, lvling areas, quest areas etc, this game gives you the best diplomacy, excitement and competitiveness, and there you have real REPUTATION, it feels like you are someone in the game, but everything else in Lineage 2 svcks, 100 years to lvl up, awful engine, insane craft, a real korean game. I'll will not talk about WoW pvp, but it's the best available at this time unfortunately. That's why I created the topic, I don't want the game to die like other games do when they release, I want TESO to be massive, fresh, funny, enough of repetition and the same old story, I'm playing this game to explore, kill my enemies and fight for resources, what the end game of TESO is for you right now? sorry for my english and the big text.

don't know if I'm 100% right..

the planet is called 'Nirn' and there's a whole lot more to it than just Tamriel

Here's a map that shows a bit more:

(sorry that it's written in German, didn't found any other map)

in addition to that there are the infinite realms of Oblivion to discover

but after all we won't be able to discover all of Tamriel right after release

That map is fan fiction and is not canon.

For one thing, we have no idea how big Akavir is and for another thing we don't know if Aldmeris is real or not.

They can expand the game if they need to, but having a lot of areas makes another ones useless, I just wan't competitive end game, something that keeps you playing and giving you different feelings every time you play :)
