The Elder Scrolls Online (PC, PS4, Xbox One) is more successful than ever. According to their own statements, they offer more content than any other studio. But players just want more and more! According to chief developer Matt Firor, the game could theoretically go on forever, like a good TV series.
The Elder Scrolls Online (ESO) launched in April 2014 as another WoW challenger and was not particularly successful at first. With the launch on PS4 and Xbox One in 2015 and the abandonment of subscription fees, the Elder Scrolls MMO became more successful.
Since then, it has been steadily improving, 2017 was the most successful year for The Elder Scrolls Online. By now, ESO has quite a bit in common with a TV series.
The Infinite Elder Scrolls Story
At the PAX East convention in the USA, ESO head Matt Firor was interviewed by Venturebeat. In it, he compared his game to a successful TV series. They have created the core and excited the fans. Now they need to continually supply new “episodes.”
By this, Firor means the regular DLCs and expansions that are released throughout the year for The Elder Scrolls Online. Three major DLCs and one expansion, like Morrowind or the upcoming Summerset, are released each year. In between, there are further small updates and events planned.
This way, the game could theoretically go on forever. They simply listen to the feedback from fans and ensure that they are constantly provided with what they love.
The Elder Scrolls Online: Fans Want More!
Despite the constant supply, many players can never get enough. “I don’t know any studio or project that delivers as much content,” said Firor. “But of course, our players often don’t think it’s fast enough.”
But that’s okay. It shows that players like the existing content and want much more of it. Therefore, after the Summerset release on May 21 (PC/Mac) and June 5 (PS4 and Xbox One), the developer Zenimax will immediately work on the next content supply.
- After all, with Summerset, a storyline that has been told in small pieces for years ends. The next big expansion will likely introduce something entirely new and continue the great “ESO series.”
