Mass Effect 2 & rumors of an Elder Scrolls MMO?
Well it's only a few days left until Mass Effect 2 hits the shelves; the first game received massive critical acclaim from the industry and BioWare have put their reputation on the line by stating "If you're going to play one BioWare game ever in your life, this is the one to try." That's a pretty ballsy claim, especially when you're competing with the groundbreaking Knights of the Old Republic and BioWare's seminal masterpiece Baldur's Gate. The CEO even went so far as to announce that ME2 "represents the pinnacle BioWare exeperience". Claims like that are pretty bold and audacious considering BioWare's immensely high standard.
The trailer certainly looks good, a lot of improvements have supposedly gone into the game, including a complete combat rework, traveling changes, side quest improvements and many, many more. Let's hope the story is just as enthralling as the originals was. On a side note I've got to admit getting Martin Sheen to narrate the trailer was a genius idea, the man is awesome.
Also rumours are around that Bethseda are working on a fantasy/WoW style based MMO. Is there really room for more high fantasy MMO's? Personally I'm a little bored with the genre, but if Bethseda were able to work on a MMO which contained a bit more maturity then i would definitely take a peak. For example if anyone came out with a Robert Jordan Wheel of Time MMO I'd be there in a shot.
