While many have criticized The Elder Scrolls Online for not being on par, or even close to the quality of Skyrim, Bethesda reckons that the days are still early, and come next spring when the game launches, much would have been improved, and Skyrim-like support is part of the strategy.
That’s what marketing VP Pete Hines said speaking to MCV, (MC V/ Issue 746), adding that the game ”is a longer-tail thing. But in terms of support, marketing and importance it is certainly equivalent to Skyrim.”
“It is a big game that is part of our biggest franchise. There is no way that we would half-way it for something that important,” he continued. “It’s still early, but as we move towards launch next spring, we plan to do a lot of the same kind of things we did with Skyrim in terms of support.”
“We hope [The Elder Scrolls Online] becomes a game that incorporates everything you’ve come to love about an Elder Scrolls game,” Hines added, “but with the online ability to play with friends, meet folks and take part in giant PvP battles. We want it to feel like an Elder Scrolls game.”
The Elder Scrolls Online will release on PC, PS4 and Xbox One in Spring 2014.
