ESO-VR and other Zenimax-Games

menschikov2

So now when you read the Patchnotes today they adjusted their Terms of Service and even if i think noone has ever read the whole TOS without getting pait for it there are some Pretty interesting Things that we can see in this update.
1. They especialy whrite that they add some parts About using VR in the TOS. We know that they are orking at a bunch of new Things there. So first, can we expect that they add a ESO-VR or something like this to the game? I think it would be funny to see ESO-VR. Perhaps not in Raids or harder Dungeons but for questing and other easy Things this could be very nice.
2. They added that the TOS are now for "all ZOS-Games" instead of only ESO. Do you think we can see any nice anouncements in the next time?

Considering the ToS is now all Zenimax games, I would imagine the VR section is just the section with regard to Skyrim and Fallout VR.

We know ZOS is working on another game, I would hope that game isn't just their mobile title (though it could be), although I'd imagine if we get announcements of anything massive it would always be Quakecon or BE3 in the US which have both passed this year IIRC.

I am not so sure About this. It is not totaly clear if this part is About Zenimax-Online-Studios or also for Bethesda. Sure, this is also a Part of Zenimax-Media but they say only Zenimax and no specific Thing. Are there the same updates in bethesdagames too?

Well considering the patch notes clearly stated "The ToS will now cover all ZeniMax games, rather than just ESO." I would imagine all their games will get some kind of ToS update, guess we would need to check Bethesda forums for more info on it.

It's not outside the realms of possibility that ESO would have some kind of VR stuff happening, but I just feel it's more likely this section is to cover their existing VR products or general VR wording than a tease of coming ESO VR support.

The name Zenimax could refer to any of the following:

Zenimax Media
Arkane Studios
Bethesda Softworks
Bethesda Game Studios
id Software
MachineGames
Tango Gameworks
ZeniMax Online Studios

I for one am dying to see this come to live. As an early adopter of VR I have played Skyrim VR (still do) and I swear there is no experience like it. Nothing on even the best of 2D screens comes even close. I cannot wait until they extend that Skyrim VR concept to ESO since it's an online game so it can be experienced with multiple players online. Paired with the upcoming next-gen high res VR headsets like the HP Reverb and Vrgineers Xtal the experience will be truly unparalleled.

that IS the future so they better get started on it right now...

I'm struggling to fathom how a game like ESO, which works best when played with a zoomed-out 3rd-person PoV, and reliant on that PoV for situational awareness, would work in VR.

When it comes to perspective, ESO is the polar opposite of the singleplayer games, which all work best in 1st-person. (This making them much easier to run in VR)

As already stated, I suspect this particular note in the ToS is simply for the existing VR titles by Zenimax.

ZeniMax is used as a collective term in the ToS.

No nice are coming, they've just adjusted ToS to fit all their games.

Terms of Service

The TOS will now cover all ZeniMax games, rather than just ESO.

I love Skyrim VR and would play ESO more if there was a VR option.
