Elder Scrolls Online

They used the same engine as SWTOR in the testing phases, but they've already said they designed a custom engine for the game. Skyrim used a completely different engine. I'm sure the aesthetics will be nice and colorful as shown in the screenshots they released, but I wouldn't go as far as saying it will be "SKYRIM MMORPG!!!111one".

It's all speculation right now anyway, but the shit they have talked about with the combat engine, it seems like they're going with a GW2 meets Tera... Neverwinter's combat looks more appealing imo.

Is it wrong that I am hoping for many aspects to be similar to runescape, Mainly the way skills are handled, you can be any "class" you want to be and just switch whenever you feel like it?

No it's fine..... but you should be comparing it 2 final fantasy online, cause final fantasy 11 is actually a good mmorpg unlike runescape

don't die.... problem solved

and most mmo's are grinds.... just a matter of how much you really want 2 invest time wise for bigger rewards.

all the best mmorpg's have basically been grind games.... they were challenging and took time, so when you accomplished something, it actually felt good. now the mmorpg market is just a bunch of casual bullshit that basically always ends up failing and going free 2 play.... there hasn't been a real good MMORPG in a long long long time.
