ESO - Morrowind [INFO/TRAILER/PICS]

All aboard the hype train!

And with the flood of speculation over something anyone could make in a smartphone app in 30 seconds, ZOS killed all their momentum for Homestead.

Even Star Wars wasn't dumb enough to rev up The Last Jedi news before Rogue One was out for a little while and could develop its own identity within the brand. That's the kind of solid marketing you look at for inspiration if you actually care about the products you're putting out.

This sort of proves that Homestead is 100% disposable.

Or they are trying to show the player base that new lands are being worked on as well as Homestead and Crown Store fluff?

Not a fan of keeping things secret up until the last minute. There's only so much you can change when it's close to release. How can you be confident you're giving your customers what they want if you don't tell them what you're working on?

I'm hopeful, though. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt until we know more. Seems like this is a big project, so hopefully they've listened to general feedback and carefully considered what they're going to include.

Ugh, really wish I didn't have to be so skeptical about everything ZOS do.

We've known they're "working on stuff" since QuakeCon 2014.

I think he's right. Homestead was never meant to be a game seller or something like that. It's a nice addition to the game, that's it. Nothing more or less than that.

Totally agree about this.

As of today ZOS released teasers for their next DLC/Expansion. Hinting the Red Mountain in Vvardenfell with the volcanic rock texture and hopefully a live action CGI trailer to soon be released. These new teasers would mean we could be seeing the next large DLC/Expansion to be released in about three months from now. With this years 15th Anniversary of Morrowind it would only make sense this would be Vvardenfell. **UPDATE: More information to be revealed on January 31, 2017 on Bethesda Twitch.

UPDATE - January 31st 11am PST / 2pm EST

What I want to know is why they are doing a stream at 11 AM on a Tuesday... Don't they know that people have to go to work or school?

Not everyone in the world is working during those hours. Just have twitch on your phone while working (depending what u do for work of course).

The last little clip had a date, and a time, and a Twitch TV address.

That date and time refer I would guess to an ESO Live event that will preview VVardenfell.

I would be shocked to my core if that date a time refer to actual release date of new content.

And that means they still have time to fix things before release.

All that is just my opinion of course; I could be wrong (it has happened once or twice - usually when I attempt to Tank) .

I suspect that this is all happening now to take some of the heat and attention away from what is lining up to be a huge disappointment with Homesteads on Feb 6th. I genuinely think ZOS thought they were releasing a spectacular housing expansion, and the feedback suggest nothing of the sort. This teaser is IMO damage limitation.

Watch they call it an expansion, so it won't be covered by ESO+ DLC access.

Im ok with paying an extra for a good amount of content, like 1 extra class, 1 new trial, 3-4 new dungeons....

Me too.

If it comes in bigger and with more content than Orsinium I see nothing wrong with treating it as a paid for Expac.

That would be awesome. Mephalas Realm as a trial or dungeon? HELL TO THE YASSS

@Gandrhulf_Harbard
Of course. But I'm guessing they've been working on this for quite some time now, and they won't be able to do much more than some adjustments here and there by the time we know what's actually included.

KochDerDamonen

Please let it be BIG

I swear, if it's not...

WhiteCoatSyndrome

Of course it's while I'm at work.

I don't suppose any of you who won't be at work during that time frame could make a recording and post it here?

Well to be fair:
--We already know all the houses for Homestead
--We already know what the furniture recipes will be thanks to the wonderful people on the PTS
--We already know it's going to be a huge grind

What else is there to be said for Homestead?

If they don't start hyping the next DLC now, they're going to lose a lot of people.

@schip

I see your point.

I'm just hoping they take enough time to get it right first time, rather than disappoint people and then have to expend resources playing catch-up to put it right second time around.

I don't mind. Vvardenfell is a GIANT map. They should charge more than $14.99 (eso+) for that. $39.99 for a gigantic map + new classes (hopefully) would totally be worth it.

If they add that much and make it a proper expansion that would be great. It is a huge map, but a large chunk may not be accessible. That whole volcano could be too steep to climb. Right now it is a ton of speculation and dreams, with only a short clip and a data mined map that may not be final content at all.

Big is not enough. ESO needs a massive chunk of content. A new zone won't be enough.

BlazingDynamo

Worst click bait title ever.

Elder_Martin

If there aren't a million cliff racers per square mile and Dunmers yelling "Fetcher!" around every corner then my immersion will be broken.

Edit: ALSO THERE BETTER BE A MUDCRAB MERCHANT!

j_s

it's not going to be huge, or big...didn't ZOS announce that they would rather bring out smaller DLCs but on a more frequent basis ?
