BREAKING NEWS: The MMO will be set in Skyrim, not the entire Tamriel.
:arrow: Source

Uh, no.
That source says "set in the world of Skyrim", not "set in Skyrim".
Tamriel is "the world of Skyrim", the world that Skyrim is a part of.

Are they using Skyrim as an anchor/reference point, or do they really mean Skyrim? Because i think they'd say Tamriel if they meant Tamriel.

anyways, i can't see this working with the current game mechanics. i expect it will show up, or at least a vague shadow of it, and it will be heavily nerfed to accomodate new MMO mechanics.

I imagine that the article used Skyrim in the title because being the latest game in the series, and a huge success in sales, it is likely to be recognised by a wider audience than if they had said Tamriel.

EDIT: sorry, sucky internet.

anyways, it ain't so hard to mention Tamriel and then say it's the world where Skyrim is just a country or something along those lines. make people recognize Skyrim and then make them see how Skyrim is just a fraction of Tamriel...

That's pretty much what they did in that article isn't it?
They put Skyrim in the headline, to pull the maximum audience, and then in the body of the article they say "Molag Bal tries to pull all of Tamriel into his demonic realm." so that we know it's a game dealing with all of Tamriel.

how do you add dramatic lighting to a 2D game? Lighting only is really noticeable on 3D environments.

Terraria has noticeable dramatic lighting...
