The Elder Scrolls Online Begins Developer Ama

[TheGamer 406]

Taking a page from Reddit's AMA, TESO's developers will begin posting AMA style Q&A in the next few weeks. Updated every two weeks, it will provide insight in to the game's progress and development. Rapidly becoming one of the most-watched upcoming MMOs since it was announced in mid 2012, TESO is slated for a 2013 launch. The game is not yet in public beta.

This looks so good, but I dunno, I'm still pretty mad at them about Dawnguard. I can't believe I paid full price for that expansion.

There was just so much hype for it. It wasn't bad, but the modding community has just done so much more, and for free. They've outsourced this to Zenimax and they know the pressure to be at 100% is insane, given the ES fanbase. Everyone is watching every little thing they do, just waiting for them to screw up. Thankfully, SWTOR was a pretty big warning of what not to do with an MMO based on a franchise that rabid fans adore. I think it became every MMO developer's cautionary tale. They have done some smart things, like keeping initial development off the radar so they could develop in peace.
