This Elder Scrolls Online video explains the story
As some of you may know, I'm an Elder Scrolls nut -- possibly the biggest one on Destructoid if you include games outside of Skyrim. So while I have my reservations regarding the upcoming Elder Scrolls Online, I'm eager to see what it can bring to the table. Say what you will about an Elder Scrolls game moving into the MMO space (my main issue right now is the subscription fee), but it looks like Zenimax is really taking its time to make this fairly authentic to the series' established lore. Seriously, if you have any doubts, take a few minutes to watch the video. I'm pretty excited to see how this pans out, and you can expect coverage throughout the year from us, guaranteed!
