    Paying for a retail price and $15/month I would expect a MMORPG that will be released in 2014 to have these features :-(

    What are they THINKING???

    Sure, you can make the argument that the team is sticking to a model they developed for another game rather than crafting a unique Elder Scrolls MMO for franchise fans because they actually think MMORPG player wants are so different. This was a huge mistake on their part and perhaps an admission that they were not flexible enough to cater to a new audiences wants, being too set in their ways regarding what makes a good game. We have seen this before in the industry. Look what happened to Star Trek Online, a game they crafted for what they thought MMORPG players would go for and what happened when it met its actual market player base (ie a horde of trek fans looking for a Star Trek experience that got anything but.)  TESO is running the same kind of risk and it may leave heads spinning about what went wrong later without a clue.

    OMG! OMG! OMG!  The SKY(rim) is falling RUN!!! 

     

    Seriously, so what?  Those people who are currently downgrading their personal Hypes are those people who think that paying $15 a month to much a burden to bear.  Let them run and play their F2P games if that is what they wish to do and let the rest of us play what  we wish to play.

    Instead of concentrating on what games dont do, people should concetrate on what they do...

     

    This all comes from the negative view on life that many of us gamers have... we want t all and we want it all for free.. And if its not exactly what we think we want, then we crush it with uncalibrated criticisme..

     

    You cant judge a game withouth having played it, same way you cant judge food withouth having tasted it.

    What does "N/A Chat box" mean?  And yes, I know what N/A stands for, heh heh!

    You'd think that paying $50-$60 for a game and $15 sub was some strange thing. Up until a couple years ago...this IS what you paid. Game prices increased all around. ALL top games have been released at $59.95 US for the last couple of years. We paid $50 + $15 sub for WoW when released right?

     

    All this BS on this site about how outrageous the price is may be warranted given today's low standards, but not beyond what has been paid before.

    it stands for information not available...  meaning we dont know yet, or hasnt been announced yet...  It was clearly described on the official forums where the OP cut this part of information from a popular topic.

    OK, thanks Lord Bachus.  I certainly hope it has a traditional chat box for communicating with party, friends, guild, and the world in general.

     

    I'm kinda disappointed that there's no housing system...
