I'm also wondering if Bethesda is just going to be folded into ZeniMax Online, and then instead of making new games in the TES series, they'll just work on different chapters for ESO. Assuming the large TES fan-base gets it past the initial being-killed-by-WoW phase most MMOs face. I don't like MMOs either. It's not going to feel like an Elder Scroll game to me. Only one hero at a time should be able to shape Nirn as he or she see's fit.

but you're not playing as that hero, you're playing as a member of an army, the "true heroes" are the leaders of each faction; you're just playing as one of their agents.
