I'm really not sure why this is so difficult for you to understand. Instead of listening to facts that people are pointing out to you, you choose to rely on speculation. I grant you that if you had to rely solely upon observation then yes the credits at the beginning would be strongly in favor of your logic. However it has been stated by ZOS that Bethesda only provided guidance on lore for the game. That is it. They basically handed them their notes and then gave them credit for it.

Please stop before you hurt yourself with these ridiculous arguments.Rune_Relic wrote: »Next time you fire up the game...watch the company titles on the bottom of the screen
Then ask yourself why Bethesda has put their name on the box ?
Then ask yourself why Bethesda made an announcement of ESO staff losses ?
And why would a separate isolated company who wants to put clear water between themsleves and sister company.....add said sister company to the main title screen at all ? Is this a Bethesda product or a Zenimax product ?
I am pleased you are amused. Laughter is a good thing. But it doesnt raise my opinion of you.

During their candid chat with Bethesda VP Pete Hines for the OXM Podcast, Ed and Jonty broached the topic of multiplayer in Skyrim. whether it was ever considered and if Hines thinks there's hope for multiplayer in Tamriel's future.
"Every time we make an Elder Scrolls game we always, on some level, talk about multiplayer," Hines explained. "But I think what we continue to come back to is: one, that it's not necessary because clearly we've done okay without it and two: is it adding anything that's missing to the game or the experience we're trying to create?"
Fair points both, you might agree. To elaborate on their hesitancy further, Hines listed off just a few of the issues his team would have to consider before a multiplayer option in Skyrim could ever become a reality. For example, how would quests be shared or accepted? How would conversations with NPCs work? How many enemies would need to be in any one area to provide a sufficient challenge to a band of merry adventurers? How good can those enemies look, considering how much information must be on screen at any one time? My head hurts just contemplating that kind of logistical nightmare.

Well as it happens alot of TES fans have been waiting for a TES game to come out with online features, just not with all the MMO junk.
Do you think this game ends all hope of bethesda ever adding any online features at all to any future TES game?

I'm pretty sure Bethesda can bankroll themselves.If you really want a new single-player ES game (with multiplayer or not), no problem. Just give Bethesda the $200+ million it will cost to develop it. Maybe you could set up a Kickstarter. All you really need are 200+ friends to donate $1 million a piece and you're all set. You could even offer rewards like "Donate $1 million or more, get a free t-shirt." ;-)
Obviously, they don't agree.
