A question and answer interview was posted on the official Elder Scrolls Online site and answered a lot of questions regarding the Daggerfall Covenant faction, orcs and different locations that are thought to exist in the game, ScreenCrush.com reports.

The developer confirmed that players can adventure around the Alik'r Desert town of Tava's Blessing, which is the settlement that predates the city of Lainlyn, ScreenCrush.com also reports.

Orcs will also be named the Orsimer in Elder Scrolls Online and will be a playable race in the new game.

The developer of Elder Scrolls Online, has not announced an official release date for the game, but one analyst suggests that changes in DPS class can create an imbalance within the game. 

"In the Elder Scrolls Online, this balance of power becomes an even greater challenge because builds have multiple trees to factor in. As I mentioned last week, each class has three possible combat trees, but armoring also has its trees, as does weaponry, and to a lesser extent, so does race. It's possible that there will be more, but those are the ones I'm sure of at this point," writes a Joystiq.com analyst. 

"Because a player will be able to mix and match all these skills and active abilities, it makes it possible to have a class like the Nightblade (rogue), which is traditionally a DPS-only class, tank or maybe even heal. Not only that, but according to the commentary from the lifestream in August, a player may be able to switch roles in the middle of a fight simply by switching weapons. That, even by the the strictest definition, is a hybrid."
