Talk:The Elder Scrolls Online

are the Argonians really in a covenant with the Dunmer? that's surprising. but my god i cant wait.

I would think that the Kajiit and the Argonians would buddy up, seeing as though they're both Mer... But hey, spread the good races out among the alliances, right?

Well from what I can tell from the interview that GameInformer had with Paul Sage the Nords and Dunmer teamed up because the two groups were tired of having their lands invaded and then asked the Argonians because they were having quite a bit of trouble. The Argonians agreed because the alliance, or covenant if you prefer, would put them on equal footing with the Dunmer and Nords. The Kajiit teamed up with the Bosmer and Altmer because they believe the races of men have only caused a lot of conflict for the world and plan to more or less fix it. The last of the Alliances is more about trade.

Next gen.
This should be on the next generation of consoles too, they will be powerful enough for it. At this point not putting it on the next gen of consoles is either very ignorant or very stupid, after all not every fan of TES can afford a gaming pc. Im not hating but Im sick of devs thinking that only pcs can handle MMOs. 86.186.197.129 16:35, May 7, 2012 (UTC)

Cannoncity
How will this fit into the cannon of TES because if the "Emperor" changes every week than how will this be translated into here and also how will this fit in when this is still developing and TES VI comes out? Bobalugee1940 (talk) 01:16, May 9, 2012 (UTC)

It's canon not cannon, the way you spelled it reffers the the weapon, not what you're thinking about. Dark | Shadow |Sword 23:20, May 30, 2012 (UTC)

Imperials Favorite
Why can't I play as imperials their are my favorite race?

Thats probably because they don't exsist yet? As it states that Nords began the races of imperials and bretons. The breton race was created as a result of human - mer breeding. At the moment imperials are probably still nords right now. Besides, imperials suck. Nords FTW!

Naming on the Wiki
The name is officially Elder Scrolls Online, not Elder Scrolls: Online. Check http://www.gameinformer.com/b/features/archive/2012/05/09/the-origins-of-the-elder-scrolls-online.aspx he specifically talks about the naming of the game. 63.82.222.148 14:37, May 11, 2012 (UTC)

They already made a game in Cyrodiil. Why doesen't ZeniMax make a game in an alternate province like Summerset Isle?

Than again, I am just a lowly gamer. What right do I have in making decisions?

I know, its the exact same place and the exact same situation as oblivion, and even though it is my favorite game of the seiries why not something like black marsh or the wood elves' province instead?!?!

Operating system section is wrong
The operating system section says "Macintosh." Macintosh is now officially called OS X. Not Mac OS X. OS X.

Fixed. Thanks. 20:28, May 16, 2012 (UTC)

Video
Maybe we should have a video here, like a trailer? Maybe the one from The official website? 04:02, May 24, 2012 (UTC)

Dragons
I've read over the GameInformer coverage for ESO three times already. From what they were saying the interviewee just stated that dragons weren't a big part of ES history at that time. While this isn't much to go by, I think we can still expect a dragon or two as dungeon bosses or something of the sort.

As evidence, consider Paarthunax and the other dragon (whose name escapes me) who is found in Blackreach. They were "survivors" of the war in which all the dragons were killed (supposedly). They lived thousands of years afterwards to be found by the dragonborn. Also, take into account the book Annals of the Dragonguard. This book plainly states that the Akaviri were still hunting dragons well into the second era. This goes to show that the afore mentioned two dragons, along with any other potential survivors, could possibly be present in ESO. I will again state that I have no solid proof and that this IS speculation. I just want to put it out there that dragons can appear in the game without going against established canon. So, for all you dragon hunters/lovers out there, there's still hope.

 * I, too, believe that there will be a dragon or two making an appearance in the game. (Or, at the very least, some dragonlings). After all, they said the same thing about friendly dragons before Skyrim came out. So.. yeah, there's DEFINITELY hope! Timeoin•Say G'Day•View my work 13:55, June 5, 2012 (UTC)


 * Well I uploaded a pic from The Elder Scroll Online and it looks a lot like a dragon. Hope it helps! 16:51, June 29, 2012 (UTC)

I watched an interview on YouTube of one of the producers. He said that we are going back to Hammerfell. Why is it not on the list? It looks great, but Oh, how I cannot wait!!

Extra Trivia
Hey, it may be worthwhile to include in the trivia section of the actual The Elder Scrolls Online page that the game does not take place exactly 1,000 years before the events of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim (as it states on the FAQ page of http://elderscrollsonline.com/en/faq) But rather 998 years before. (If it where exactly 1,000 years before it would take place in 531 while its listed on http://elderscrolls.wikia.com/wiki/Timeline#Second_Era as taking place in 533.
