I'll help in any way I can. How do we start? (Although I could give them a chance, if they don't butcher it like "all" of the other MMORPG's did. If they can revolutionize the aspect of MMORPG's then I would play.)

PS: Did you know Bethesda used to make sport games? That's why everyone laughed at them when they announced they would make the Arena.

half the time, aren't kids crying about not having online multiplayer though? I'd only be satisfied with an online TES V if it were a single player/ co-op game. I would not want to play with more than four other people.

Co-op could be interesting, but think of the balancing problems. What if your buddy was so many levels below you that the enemies were way too difficult for them? Or if it was reversed so that the enemies would reflect the weakest party member, then how lame would it be to win every encounter hands down?

They could make it a low-resolution educational game, much like Finding Nemo. I'd prefer that much more than a destructive, violent game.

For example, instead of blatantly killing people, you can "beat" them by answering the sum or spelling the given word before they do! Also, there will be no "foes", everyone is everyone's friend, from Akatosh to Mehrunes Dagon, we're all going to be best buddies.

Now that would be a game worth playing.

Actually, I hope everyone knows that IF ESV does come out, then it will come out after Fallout 3 ( the game bungie is making right now) I think they'll make fallout just like oblivion but with better fighting, and it is also in the future.

As an FFXI player, the reason I've gone back to Oblivion mainly because the wife and I just finished an adoption, so I need to have a game that requires little time investment at a time, and I can just pause and run away to take care of the little guy. Oblivion lets me do this, MMOG's would not.

Granted, I still do play FFXI from time to time, but it's more of a chat client to keep in touch with people I've met in that game than any serious "gaming" in it.
