ESO is a Hero Engine game, a game engine used by SWTOR, DC Online and other MMORPGs. It’s an engine specifically designed to make “WoW killers” with. It doesn’t feel, play or look like a Bethesda Games Studios game at all. So the comparison doesn’t work. 

Heres a really good Mission Impossible one.

That’s because the new films have almost zero world building

Really? Just some panning shots? That was nothing special at all. 

Which isn’t in the game either.

Actually,  they do own those characters. But only *specific* versions of those characters.

I’ve been looking forward to this.

Seriously, what the fuck was this guy watching? People are so bent out of shape with the neksnapping scene that they’re not even thinking straight anymore about what actually happens in the film.

“When I play Odyssey, I’ll spot a cluster of question marks on the game’s map and venture toward them to find out what they represent. If they point me to the location of “alpha animals” to kill or optional enemy bases to clear, I’m into it.”

Are you kidding me? None of these are going to "end." Nothing "ends" anymore. The cash must flow, always, and studios have effectively created a movie environment where franchises no longer end.

That was cringe inducingly bad, is THIS was fans what? Christ.

Uhhhh, what they totally did get those daggers. But in the movie they got them from Galadriel.

Only open to U. S. res-si-DENTS!!!

Why have they still not figured this out in games? Is clipping with cloth physics just impossible to prevent?

So I've only played I and II on PS2 back when they first came out more than *10* years ago. Can I just pick up and play this and understand what's going on at all?

Spot. On.

Makes perfect sense. The world becomes more scary, more dangerous and people flock to leaders that make them feel safe. At the cost of everything else. The human race has gone through this since the beginning. Perhaps instead of World War 3 we will get World War Nature. Nature will destroy fascism instead this time…

As opposed to the shitty grind fests that are Origins and Odyssey? HAPPILY.

They should go back to Persia. Complete the circle and go back to its roots (AC was originally a next gen PoP). They’re already doing a Darius DLC (Darius was the first assassin to use the hidden blade and assassinated Xerxes). Ancient Persia could look incredibly striking. Plenty of cool landmarks, environments and…

They’ve abandoned any pretense of being historically accurate since Origins. Odyssey ramped it up even more.
