If it includes [snip] with weirdly bloated torsos like ESO Im in!

They put a bad taste in my mouth the second they announced they were going back on their word and moving forward with a F2P/cash shop model. Since then it's gone about exactly as I expected.

That and the lack of focus on PvP fixes and updates(the whole reason I bought the game), and I just don't have trust in them.

I bought the game because it is Elder Scrolls, and I like the game.

I am not a fan of the studio and I would not buy the game for that reason. They have not proven that they can build, and maintain, a game with a long term commitment. I know they are working on lag, and other bugs, but they behave like a single player game studio that is wrapping up things and cranking out a few DLC before moving on to another project.

If they can demonstrate otherwise, I might change my mind.

Considering I have put almost 2000 hours into this game, I would consider it, depending on what the game was.

It is always a risk when you hop on a new MMO that it will be a hit and run. Them''s the risk you take. Backed by Zenimax Media and Bethesda Softworks, this should be a stable and low risk game. I seriously feel that they would not let it fail, but they may have a different definition of fail.

So, yeah, fool me once...

I was going to say "depends on the title" but... really... no.

I would depend. I imagine if they DO do another, it would be based on Fallout, which I have never gotten in to and probably wouldn't buy it. BUT, if it was based on a game series that I liked in the first place, I would consider checking it out in MMO form by Zenimax. ESO isn't perfect, and I would change a lot of things myself, but, I realize you can't please everyone, all the time, and, I have spent several entertaining hours playing ESO, and even made a friend or two along the way, so, I think I would at least consider it.

Depends on what it is.

If the game is fun, then I will play it.

Lord no. Just waiting on the next decent MMO to release.

Also, exactly what he said ^^^^^

Nope, 2 years of trying to get this game to work on pc and eventually on console, and to this day I still run into problems that prevent me from making any significant progress. There is almost always something going wrong. I moved to console as I believed that maybe it was my pc causing it, but nope getting different but just as game breaking problems continuously happening on console.

So yup I wont be supporting any future endeavors by this company, including any dlc they have yet to launch for ESO.
I think I've shown enough support in the last couple of years by way of subscription and buying the dlc for console., but haven't seen any significant improvement. If anything it feels like it's getting worse.

Based on my experience with TESO since launch thus far: abso-friggin'-lutely I would!

Granted, it would depend on the genre and theme of the new MMO, but I'm usually open to most of them anyway.

In fact, with a few tweaks here and there, the TESO engine would work and look great for an MMO like Lost Continents, a pulp-adventure themed MMO that was being developed circa 2000-2001 but was unfortunately shelved by 2002 before it got to see the light of day.

This is a great game, and depending what the MMO is, sure I'd try it. This game is wonderful for PVE, and I've enjoyed playing AND spending money on it.

I say no but I'm sure I would kind of just reiterate a few point others have made already. Do I like the game? Absolutely. I do find it very enjoyable in many regards, however, a lot of small things and some big add up to me just not really trusting the company.

The direction the game is going in depresses me, single player dlc's, the things discussed on eso live, band aid fixes, a rediculous amount of bugs. I want new dungeons and for them to do something with imperial city. I don't even want new dungeons I just want veteran versions of the 7 or so dungeons they have with only a normal mode.

I love it but I hate it at the same time. ZOS is feeding on my addiction.
