Even before the game’s first teaser trailer is due in a few hours’ time, screenshots of the game have been leaked to the public, supposedly from the upcoming June issue of magazine Game Informer. First announced just a couple of hours ago as well, The Elder Scrolls Online will see players travel the vast lands of Tamriel, including Morrowind and Skyrim. But here are a couple of bad news…
The screenshots don’t really look that amazing, and further news about the game’s systems will surely piss fans of the series off. According to IGN (link), “due to online latency, the combat system will not be the same real time combat the Elder Scrolls games are known for.” The article further talked about a stamina system which will be the main feature for combat.
Another feature which makes the series kind of unique, property investment, will be missing as well. As IGN posted, “Presently, there are no plans to include a system that allows players to invest in property as they could in the single-player experience.” Hopefully this is just a feature not ready at launch… There are various changes which will not feature in the MMO apparently, so hit the IGN link for more information.
