I played TESO and think it is [censored], doesn't feel like The Elder Scrolls or an MMO, they've found this weird middle ground that doesn't satisfy any one. I tried to play with my friends, but tbh the prison tutorial was so bad most of them quit before they even left that and the rest of them quit only a few hours later once they realised the freedom has gone from pas Elder Scrolls games. I dunno why they decided to make a themepark MMO, TES should always be a sandbox, but whatever..

I just hope there will be another proper Elder Scrolls game because WoW came out and there hasn't been a Warcraft 4, they butchered the story so much that I wont be interested in another if they did do. I mean the Arthas/Lich King story was something I wanted to carry on, sadly they ruined it all in WoW. Then we also had SWTOR which was meant to be KOTOR 3,4,5,6,7,8 etc. and it just turned out to be a boring WoW clone and not KOTOR at all. We still haven't heard anything about a KOTOR 3 and I doubt will we while the MMO is alive.

I just don't want The Elder Scrolls to be carried on in the MMO and for the Single Player series to be killed off as TESO is [censored].

Nothings ever certain but Bethesda Games Studios is a separate branch of Zenimax from Zenimax Online Studios. Its probable that BGS is working on the next Fallout now with TES6 a couple of years further down the line.

Depending on how ESO does in the long run, they may incorporate game design decisions to "benefit" the series. We know at the least that it will never be a mulitplayer game, though.

But this is all contingent on ESO being a smash hit like Skyrim.

There will be an Elder Scrolls(VI) that will be just like the last games. It'll be made by Bethesda, while ESO is being worked on specifically by Zenimax Online Studios. While you may have a different opinion from other people, some are still excited and ready to play ESO so they aren't just going to STOP.

In whole yes you'll have a good old Elder Scrolls game. In hopes it'll have a drop in drop out, much like the Boarderlands series, But this is my personal opinion on the matter.

Why do people keep pulling this "TES is over now" crap?
With the success of Skyrim, TES VI is a given. And I think bethesda have said they will continue to make single-player TES. Remember that seperate studios are making ESO and TES/Fallout.

We have a thread dedicated to discussing future TES games... http://www.gamesas.com/topic/1496217-official-beyond-skyrim-tes-vi-34/
