  @DarkEnzo0309 In the thread it says basically anyone who is not working on Elder Scrolls or Fallout is out. I want to see a Wolfenstein 3 too. But I have a feeling that we wont.

  @VoteBadenov The elder scrolls franchise has never had a long running issue with stealth archer builds noooooo why would you think thay

  @Jiujitsu45 @FuuTop1 I'd rather the Sony strategy. Live service everywhere, single player exclusive. Fallout 5 and Elder Scrolls 6 will sell consoles, lots of them. But not if you can get those games on PS as well.

  @danno_omen @Sonnie_Slim Well live service are the games they want for sure. Sticky games are extremely valuable in this economy but between those 2 games, budget vs profit will tell but mega hits would be the CoDs, Elder Scrolls, Minecrafts as the surefires. Outside of that, we'll soon discover how low their bar is as I see games coming from id Software in a shaky position 🫣

  @JezCorden @JuiceHead33 Other platforms didn't buy the bulk of mid to top tier studies in less than 3 years. Exclusives are fine but when a mega corp buys 100 billion worth of studios it kinda creates an issue. If they keep the 4 tent pole, cool. They move Elder Scrolls...thats the ******* problem.

  @TESOnline Nothing to really dislike, but nothing to get overly animated about. Nice changes at the edges when there are critical core problems that bafflingly continue to not be addressed.

  @Grummz The industry keeps acting confused while the answer is right in front of them. Fallout 76 and ESO soaked up years of time and resources while fans have been begging for a new Elder Scrolls. Most players don’t want endless live service slop, cash shops, and seasonal grinds. They want the next great RPG. Stop giving people what investors want and start giving them what gamers actually asked for.

  Elder Scrolls 6 will be and will remain in a permanent broken state just like Oblivion Remastered. Modders don't have time, ressources and willingness to fix this 💩 @Bethesda just doesn't care about their games and customers

  I don’t understand why they ever decided to do certain games multi platform. But also why they would ever consider doing ads in the games. Just make all of their exclusive series like the elder scrolls and fallout and fable exclusives, and then they won’t have any financial problems.

  MasMenno (@MasMenno) reported 16 minutes ago

  @Jorden1506 The only part where it could be lackluster is if you go by exclusives. The overall output of the studios has been great. Over 10 live-service games with constant updates; Diablo 4, Overwatch, Minecraft and Elder Scrolls Online are currently peaking in players. 1/2

  @UESP_net Solo is NOT the same as single player. ESO & FO76 are the reason Elder Scrolls 6 & Fallout 5 are taking so long. Bethesda think they delivering what we want & the bean counters are happy to string us along because the live service model is far more profitable.

  I’ve been quieter on this account just because I try to keep my non Hellaverse yapping over to my side account as much as possible. Mostly talking about media/books I love. If you want to see me crash out when we get no news again about Elder Scrolls 6 tomorrow, it’ll be here

  Tazz (@TazzPlaysGames) reported 25 minutes ago

  The Elder Scrolls 6 is absolutely going to be an Xbox console exclusive. If you missed it, Matt Booty said that all live service games will remain multiplatform and other games will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. The goal of exclusivity is always to sell consoles, and I can’t think of a game that would be better to sell consoles than Elder Scrolls VI. If Asha is serious about getting Xbox consoles back to being the focus, I think it’s a near certainty that it will be exclusive. What do you think?

  FinalBoss.io (@FinalBoss_io) reported 27 minutes ago

  If the fix for Xbox is “more Halo, Fallout, and Elder Scrolls,” that’s not a strategy. That’s a confession that the bench is thin. Speeding up legacy franchises only works if the games stay distinct. Otherwise you get expensive factory output with a familiar logo.

  @TESOnline @TheJackalAgenda What I want to see happen with ESO as the game continues to evolve is the pure classes actually to FEEL Close to the lore. Each should have a key strength and weakness. The entire combat system should revolve around that, not a meta. A Sorc should be the king of ranged AOE/Bombs, weak up close, or no shields. A Nightblade should be the king of single-target damage and deleting any player (burst), scaled from their health/armor if they take the time to hunt undetected. But it's the sacrifice of being a glass cannon. An Arcanist should be the king of ranged single-target damage. And a Dragonknight should be the king of toe-to-toe battles, one-on-one, but not as bursty, but very strong defensively, as the standard well-balanced of all, but not superior to the rest. Right now, you have kill screens filled with me, too, DKs, and it's like watching the Clone Wars in Cyro. But each of these characters should be a toolbox in its own right for vet players. Is there a necro tank that refuses to die? Grab the Arcanist beam to the face, huge DOT, and problem solved. Are there nightblades all over the little village? Grab the sorc and start raining huge AOE’s to reveal and drop. A pesky Templar that won't go down? Grab the Dragonknight. But the combat system has felt for years like it was tailored to the sets and mythics rather than to specific characters to upgrade your toolkit. I was deeply disappointed in this video when Asmon who I enjoy flat out walked away from camera for two whole minutes during your game showcase. Then I had to look up why. And apparently, he criticized the combat system in 2019, saying it was clunky and dropped the game entirely, though he noted it was beautiful. That should concern you. These things should make sense to the average player. Feel like a quiet solo night hunting alone? Nightblade. Feel like brawling it out in a fistfight with a large group. DK. Want to try ranged bombing? Arcanist. But tie it all together, please make the story and the battles make sense with the combat instead of making one way overpowered character (DK), everyone copies, and you get the same kill screen. Otherwise, you are going to turn average NEW players away, and I really love this game a lot to go forever, especially all the friends I've made :) See where I'm going? I don't want to play the meta, I want to play what fits my playstyle and themes for that mood. Why wouldn't a High Elf magika Sorc be the best for PVP instead of stamina? So keep going, EVEN if it ruffles the feathers of the sweaties who don't want change or to keep it the same old same. Those people retire and need to be replaced over time anyway, and you want to sell more shinys, right? Please pass it on @TESOnline

  @thegamersjoint The difference here is that Bethesda just doesn't have the passion they had back in Skyrim. The next elder scrolls will be full of controversies, least of all will be the bugs. KH4 might have a combat system controversy or a convoluted story issue but it will still be great.

  @BRAP_Podcast @onepiece9681 I really question your intelligence. They never had good exclusives for it to amount to anything. If they had elder scrolls crash and call of duty and others for a substantial amount of time they be in a different situation. We saw how much better they did during 360 era.

  @TESOnline The new furnishing drop rate is abysmal. Please return the dueling mat to what it was before you “fixed” it. It’s been over a year. The invisible bottom became a feature and people bought a LOT of them for that reason. You really let down the housing community with that “fix”.

  don't really understand why people are so cheesed about elder scrolls if they announce a release everyone will come up with 11 other problems before the thing is out when it comes out, people are gonna dislike it and say they don't make em like they used to

  Backlog battler Carl (@backlogcarl) reported 41 minutes ago

  You wouldn’t just have that now. You would also have Fallout, Elder Scrolls, Minecraft, Halo, Gears, Forza, etc. You need games that sell a service and get people to buy into it, eventually growing into big IPs. A lot of people on this very app felt Ninja Theory was going to be that studio that took the next step. They surely could, but a lot of people felt Hellblade 2 was a lateral move and not a step up. The point I made was that so many people think innovation means stagnation at the same time, when it should be both. The truth is you can make a fun little game and just hope it sells 500k–1M copies.

  Jimoar (@JimoarGaming) reported 42 minutes ago

  @Big__TeeJ @FL1NTZ @Zarathos88 They're not the same. Your original post was whataboutism and you conveniently left out cuts at arkane and zenimax where the current rumors are "anyone not working on fallout or elder scrolls is at risk" just to say "look Sony is just as bad as Xbox with this one studio".

• 
  XSaltedOne (@XSaltedOne) reported 43 minutes ago

  @Phant0mp0wer @nickjcal COD gets that much support since it's an annual release with a huge return. Just looking at ABK though, you also have WOW, Overwatch, Crash, Spyro, Starcraft, etc. Just from Zennimax you have Doom, Quake, Wolfenstein, Elder Scrolls, Fallout, etc. From the remaining studios you have Halo, Gears, Forza, Fable, Outer Worlds, Sea Of Thieves, Banjo, Minecraft, etc. The new Spyro was made from a partnership with a spun off studio, so they aren't limited to their in-house devs to handle all of their IP. They sold Tango, but still own the Evil Within, and you would assume if Arkane is cut, they would retain Prey and Dishonored. The point is there is plenty to work with depending on how this plays out. We still have to see how deep the cuts are, but sometimes you need to prune a tree to help it grow.

  @TESOnline @LordBalvin Don't take this the wrong way, but perhaps it would be better for XBOX to bulk the live service updates into a pre-show or something. It creates a weird dynamic in the showcase to mix them with new titles, not creating the best reactions in viewers— which you don't want either.
