Guys, again; even if they were to do a TES MMO, it wouldn't prevent the publication of TESV as Bethesda Game Studios and Zenimax Online Studios are separate entities and BGS doesn't work on MMOs at all.

then it sounds like the game could possibly be an MMO, which could be mighty interesting for fans of the series.
NO. No. No. No. No!

Not interested AT ALL!!!!

I <3 my Elderscrolls! My Elderscrolls! I play Elderscrolls because of the way I, ME, make the decisions that shape the world. Who lives, who dies, those are choices I have always made, and have loved being the solitary player in these worlds!!!

If this goes MMO, TES games will lose me as a customer.

A) Elderscrolls games have always been my world of escapism for exploration and questing I perform on my terms. This was what they championed as games! MMO status will utterly vanquish this.

B) I loathe all things MMORPG. I don't need to give out reasons for this, and no amount of opining will change my mind. I WILL NOT PLAY THEM.

Please, Bethsoft, NO NO NO!!!!

[sub]But it's all just a rumour, and if there's still a real, honest-to-God TESV in the works, disregard previous rant...[/sub]

It would be a downright stupid move of Bethesda to make an MMORPG out of the Elder Scrolls universe. They´ve carved a great niche with their vast first person singleplayer RPG`s. Why throw that away for a shot at an oversaturated market?

No one will beat WoW. Just stick to what your good at, amazing first person action role playing games or fparpg for short.

To everyone complaining about how much the MMO will ruin the franchise: THIS WILL NOT BE ES:V! ZENIMAX MEDIA ONLINE MAKE MMOS! BETHESDA GAME STUDIOS MAKE SINGLE PLAYER RPGS! THESE ARE DIFFERENT BRANCHES OF THE COMPANY! For the record, the only reason I went all caps was to try to help my chances of this being seen.
Your all caps worked and I fully agree with you.

As someone who has never played an MMO and doesn't intend to do so any time soon, I hope this isn't true. Unless they're making ES5 alongside this MMO.

MMO = the monster

You can see me in there if you look hard. Really, if this halts the development of the Elder Scrolls V, I am beyond pissed. Screw an MMO.

oh noze!!! don't do it Bethesda!!!

Yes I now Blizzards money mountain is very pretty but it will destroy you if you try such a stupid thing. Just go back to your computer en make TES 5.


WHAIT DID YOU SAY FALLOUT 4?
Wow so they're trying to forget new vegas before it even came out, interesting.

If Elder Scrolls becomes an MMO, I will cry myself to sleep every night for the next ten years.

C'mon Bethesda! I want a SINGLEPLAYER Elder Scrolls V.

Maybe... just maybe its not actually an MMO but a large-scale RPG with co-op/multiplayer world? Kinda like Red Dead Redemption free play?
/speculate

**edit** Or a Fallout-based mmo.

You and me both.

I play the elder scrolls to be my nerdy self and lose myself in a new large different world. Fallout is loads of fun, but all that brown can get old. Elder scrolls is that fantasy style I loved as a kid that I can have loads of fun with now. The mmo would really break my immersion in the game. It would be a broken game solely based on the fact there are other people in the world. This isn't their world, they aren't sharing it with me, they aren't the heroes, I'm the hero dangit! I flat out refuse to buy this if the next elder scrolls really is an MMO, we already have too many of those, and that's not where the series' strengths lie. It will seriously ruin everything I love about the series.

...I want the actual Elder Scrolls V :/

EDIT: Yes, I see the comments about the mmo/real TES V but I'm still disheartened. An elder scrolls MMO would just be a miserable failure and a waste of money. I hope, oh I hope, that TES V is in the works, because I am super pumped for the next one in the series. I'm ready oh am I ready for TES V.

Oblivion came out in 2006. If it takes them 5 years to make another Elder Scrolls game, and it turns out to be a f***king MMO, I'm gonna rage so hard. If this is the case, I hope it's not going to be another 5 years before we see a proper single player Elder Scrolls game.

While we're on the subject, here's hoping for a new engine, one that doesn't make your character look like their ice-skating across the countryside.

If its an MMO, i dont know how I feel.. its possible to be a WoW killer with fallout and oblivion popularity.

however, im hoping it will be set up more like Diablo or border lands.
