    @ZeniMax_Online You are the only company to get away with bad performance this long,Typical elder scrolls gaming sesh, Wait a 1/2 hour to get through the queue, Spend 45 minutes to an hour lagging uncontrollably , then crash ....

  • Asmoden3 Silaf (@Asmoden3) reported

    @TESOnline Please give us a way to obtain past event items. I've missed the "dragon rise event" for real life problems... it's bugging me like a rock in my shoe ever since.

  • PvBrent PvBrent (@PvBrent) reported

    @EVIL00WESKER @TESOnline The servers have enough issues as it is and now you wanna combine two other platforms? Big yikes. The guild traders alone would probably add a whole level of server load I don't even wanna think about.

  • FraesFortunes 🎀Frae's Folly🎀The Side Account (@FraesFortunes) reported

    Like.... why would you give him bread? and why does he crash the game if he eats the bread?? Elder Scrolls is full of very funny game development mysteries

  • JerielIrizarry Jeriel Irizarry (@JerielIrizarry) reported

  • HyenaNerdy Robo-Birdie (@HyenaNerdy) reported

    @TESOnline The dragons in Elsweyr are going to be in serious trouble the next few weeks.

  • xboxandps4fan Tony Harrison (@xboxandps4fan) reported

    @RAoditore @VGC_News @XboxP3 Taking away all Bethesda/Acti games from PS, except maybe COD. Fallout, Prey, Elder Scrolls, Wolfenstein, Dishonoured, Doom, Crash Bandicoot, Tony Hawks, Diablo etc all now only on Xbox? The only game PS took from Xbox is Final Fantasy and not all of them, and FF16 is timed.

  • _VlNX_ Tippa (@_VlNX_) reported

    @random_highjinx @xTHELEGENDSx35 @TESOnline Sounds like a skill issue on your end like I said zero advantage please provide you proof

  • KeroroCanti Kero oh wow (@KeroroCanti) reported

    Got a stream planned with a VERY cool-sounding Elder Scrolls mod I found, but there's a problem: it was made for both Oblivion AND Skyrim. Which would y'all rather see?

  • KawaiiAllowa Deckergirl (@KawaiiAllowa) reported

    @TESOnline Stacking treasure maps? Pff. How about proper stacking new items inyo guild banks. Why do I end up with 12 stacks of different sizes for the same item? Maybe after you learn to code those treasure maps. You'll go back & fix guild banks. Maybe FINALLY add a withdrawal limit.

  • CortanaV Cortana.new🧧 (@CortanaV) reported

    it finally happened. after like a decade and a half of modding elder scrolls games, i finally managed to get my whole PC to crash

  • racenutalways1 Johnny5 (@racenutalways1) reported

    @TESOnline stealth reducing population PVP(AGAIN) gonna be addressed in this announcement? NO? then I will not play your broken game

  • GallerNathan Gamma_nerd (@GallerNathan) reported

    @TESOnline I love ESO I think the problem is there's a lot of people bullying each other and also trying to threaten to steal their IP that's the problem and it needs to not happen ESO please try and prevent this to never happen

  • Raagarn Raagarn (@Raagarn) reported

    @BookerClay4 I loved Fable, but I still remember all the broken promises with those games. I have sunk an insane amount of time into Morrowind, Oblivion, and Skyrim though. I could leave Witcher and be fine. Yeah, I'll have to go Blue Pill. Too many fond memories with Elder Scrolls.

  • the_n3rd_man The Nerd Man He/Him (@the_n3rd_man) reported

    @ridezeshoopuf_ I had a similar problem when I was streaming Elder Scrolls Online. I wasn't excited to stream it, so I switched games after two streams of struggling.

  • The_Mr_Jameson Mr Jameson (@The_Mr_Jameson) reported

    @Italian347 Yeah and the sad part is that Bethesda used Fallout games to beta-test their engines for use in the Elder Scrolls games. And they were still largely broken messes

  • DimitarGR Hyde (@DimitarGR) reported

    @ApeDurden Red alert, Crash, Elder scrolls

  • ChrisDAnimation ChrisOfTheDead (@ChrisDAnimation) reported

    @nintendolife I fully suspect that if Breath of the Wild didn't have weapon degradation, I would own a Nintendo Switch by now. The only previous game I remember playing with it is Elder Scrolls: Oblivion and you can fix broken weapons and keep them fixed with easily available repair hammers.

  • Kirbizard Kirbz (@Kirbizard) reported

    I think my biggest issue with Elder Scrolls Online, that struggles for me to see it as an Elder Scrolls game, is they seem to have completed the transition of modern Bethesda forcing you into third person.

  • Wassonyourmind2 Jim Wasson (@Wassonyourmind2) reported

    @pcgamer Have you considered any playing Elder Scrolls Online? I don’t play multiplayer or PVP, the game holds my attention and it takes place before the other games. When you run into trouble, people will help then walk away without you having to talk to them. Good story for PVE.

  • Garrison_Hearst garrison hearst (@Garrison_Hearst) reported

    @BungieHelp “official service help” well do you know your menus and your service your provider is outta date 🫣🤧 and just cripples the paper based. Fornite, apex, wow , warframe assassin creed elden rings elder scrolls constantly have service of life updates wheres yours

  • McLego Legoless 🇺🇦 (@McLego) reported

    @Edenprime @AlcastHQ @TESOnline shame there's no Stadia login to get them 💀

  • ColorsUnmasked Gray Man (@ColorsUnmasked) reported

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline @BethesdaSupport I can't link my account on the vwebsite. It says there's an error. I thought you guys just fixed stuff? Wtf?

  • AThinker7777 A Thinker (@AThinker7777) reported

    @pcgamer Remember, when elder scrolls 6 comes out, you should wait a year or so before you buy it, to give molders time to fix it.

  • donaldh67293378 donald howard (@donaldh67293378) reported

    @TESOnline Fix the game pvp nothing work pve laging bad and there not as many people on like there use to be

  • scrinja Scronjle (@scrinja) reported

    @dadgamer1207 @Frank_Keb @RomeGoLARGE What's the problem with old games? Game pass gives you entire collections for the cheap my guy. I've played the entirety of fable Yakuza some elder scrolls titles and some hidden gems. Try better.

  • L1z4rdon L1z4rdon (@L1z4rdon) reported

    @TESOnline Why am I the only person here who has no problem with these events? Although I will say the event pet kinda sucks.

  • pdbrierley P D Brierley ★ (@pdbrierley) reported

    @BethesdaSupport My wife just bought @TESOnline but for PC from the ESO store but the page keeps crashing, URL rejected on both PC and phones. The £15 payment shows on my online banking but nothing on account billing history and first time login code hasn't gone to email. Help?
