User blog comment:G0LD3NF1RE/The origins of The Elder Scrolls Online/@comment-4817171-20120512011758

This is kind of an oddball comment, but similar things happend with WarCraft lore when WoW came out. It was pretty much slaughtered to make a game that would attract people who hadn't played the RTS games. But as more expansions came out, blizzard started adding more and more lore from the original games back in. I imagine it will be similar with ESOnline. We will likely be disappointed by missing tid bits of lore but Zenimax will add it as the user base demands.
