Not entirely true...the Final Fantasy series has had a couple of it's games released as MMOs (11 and 14) and thus far the single player incarnations have continued. After 11 was released as an mmo, parts 12 and 13 returned to single player versions before going back to being an MMO for part 14.
As far as the online version of the Elder Scrolls goes, I don't believe it would have much impact on the single player games. Others here have pointed out some good reasons and sure enough, if the online version is successful then perhaps you might see a continuation of the series there, but Skyrim has proven so successful that we're sure to see single player releases in the future.
That is actually good to know.
I never followed the FF series, and the people that I know don't follow that game series either.
Oh sorry, did you miss the part were I was apologizing? Because that's clearly what trolls do. Read my posts carefully, did I expect this much controversy? I'm new to online forums in general, and I honestly thought my opinion would be respected instead of being made fun of. But then again the standard seems very low on these forums. So saying that people lack judgment for paying more for their console plus computer than buying a gaming pc to play same the same game makes me a pc nazi? Please don't bring up that argument about context, this is skyrimforums, and it's getting very childish.
I bought my console a few years back, and built my computer within recent months, so how would that be a lack of jugement?
I spent about $400 for my Xbox 360 and $700 for my computer (including having to purchase the OS, and got lucky that it was around $60 at the time, even got Office 2013 Pro for $10, but that is all besides the point), and I don't think I would have had the patience or aptitude to build a computer those years ago when I purchased the Xbox.
Then there are the exclusives to both consoles that PC will never get (and there are exclusives to PC that consoles will never get).
I also see the consoles as a more social gaming platform than the PC, as it is very simple to communicate with people, and don't need any 3rd party software.
With my computer being a gaming system, I have actually been using my Xbox solely for its party system, and even purchased Dead Space 3 for it, despite having a computer that can run it quite well, and the main reason is to be able to enjoy it with friends, as not everyone can run a game on their computer.
Also, I purchased Dead Space 3 for 360 partially for the sake of having a complete series as I own DS1 and DS2 for the 360 as well.
My thoughts exactly. I don't want to even imagine what console online gaming is like.
It is far more social than PCs, as everyone can have a mic (it comes with the system), and (depending on the game) most people can communicate quite well with each other. There are the annoying little kids and immature adults out there, but that is true with every game on every system.
