    @john69542 @MaroonKennedy Dude I wanted new elder scrolls since ******* 2015,Is that a ******* problem to create one game in a spam of all those years? This means those devs are ******* lazy

    @BethesdaStudios Do people play Fallout 76 and Elder Scrolls Online? I read the numbers…I don’t know anyone who personally does. I tried 76 with a buddy and we enjoyed it for a minute but it was a massive glitch fest and that was like two years ago.

    @GenePark The thing with exclusives is that I have a 300 games backlog on PC and I can live without Elder Scrolls or God Of War. Especially after Starfield. Most PC players think the same and nobody buying 2 consoles at 1000$+ each next gen without physical media. The crash is here.

    @nichegamer Looking forward to it, but i'm afraid the games i'm mostly hoping for are not coming. Elder Scrolls Oblivion for example has a PC version, but no Controller support. Would be great to get the 360 version instead. Has lots of issues via Xenia 3rd party, Xbox could fix that.

    @MarcelynnGrimm @tapecandydrums @Gravantus ESO is a C tier MMO. If it wasn’t piggybacking off the Elder Scrolls branding, it would’ve gone end of service a decade ago. It’s done so much damage to the lore too. Every time I hear some ES lore and think “What? That’s retarded! What game is that from?” It’s always from ESO.

    @Adolf_G0ttlich @Colteastwood Over exaggerated the issues is a thing. I think Fable developer lost some people due to shake up, same with ESO and Bethseda in general. Get 100+ places talking about death of Xbox, Fable, Elder Scrolls, Fallout, etc.. with no valid reasoning or proof.

    @TJ_B_6 @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline I deleted and reinstalled, I've been able to login as normal. If you're having issues you could fill out the issue/bug form... can't remember what it called.

    Timdog (@XBOXTIMDOG) reported

    Kloot that’s not the problem. Is there anyone in the world saying I must get a xbox for gamepass? Thats the Crux of issue If you make elder scrolls 6 exclusive yeah thats what ppl say. The problem is the numbers might not be there to do that and keep day one. It’s all headed towards exclusives and huge AAA being exclusive but no day and date. Been saying this for 5 months. Starting to roost.

    @JezCorden I really am. It does make me sad how hard you are on Xbox sometimes. I get some people don't like job cuts, but she's fixing a problem that she didn't create. They bought a million studios during covid to boost game pass and obviously it didn't work. They are draining 60 cents out of every 100 keeping dead studios alive. And like Asha said there are like 13 levels of management at times. I get that they also cut other people but some of those roles could have been redundancies that weren't necessary. Remember some of these games took 10 years to make a game that would barely make any money. Some of these studios are not doing the work they need to do. I don't like exclusives but it's definitely the way to get people to buy Xbox in the future. Getting all of their popular titles actually released. Personally I don't think they released elder scrolls 6 because they were trying to milk the MMO for as long as they can. So they didn't prioritize development. Phil Spencer let the studios do whatever they wanted and he was praised because people were worried that Microsoft would get too involved. But studios were allowed to do very little to nothing for 8 years and get away with it. All to release some indie game no one would buy even on PlayStation. People are making all these videos about Xbox dying and they have been for weeks but it's silly. It was dying. She saw the issues. She's addressing them. The toughest issue yet is the console pricing but everyone is dealing with that. She's not getting close to enough credit. People get in their feelings about Job losses and I can understand why but Sony ditched almost the same amount of employees too. They barely got any flack. I get Windows Central and other places should be neutral but we also need people to stand against all the PS5 fanboys who are just hating on Xbox to justify their purchases. We need people to bring balance. To say yes. Xbox was in a crap situation but IT IS better. We have game pass. We have a better subscription service than sony. We have Xbox play Anywhere which is massive for people with gaming handhelds or PCS. I saved so much money being able to play games on both handheld and console. And we have a bright future with great exclusive games and high-end titles that most of us want to play rather than boring titles none of us would buy. I think she's doing great. Even if it has been rough times

  • MrPhilDaMan
    Phil (@MrPhilDaMan) reported

    @GenePark No. If anything I’d wait for next gen. But even then the problem is Xbox is back to having no games. Halo, fallout, doom and elder scrolls? And they want to churn them out now like assassins creed and call of duty? I’m good. Everyone knew gamepass wasn’t profitable and hurt sales of games like avowed and cod.

    @TESOnline Please fix it so people can actually get in the dam gate.

  • Paladin000Xbox
    @DarkPaladin000 (@Paladin000Xbox) reported

    @JamieMoranUK They do cost more you're absolutely right but there are some successful live service games out there Just look at Bethesda and how long they've done Fallout 76 An elder scrolls Online those games have a ton of players Sea of Thieves did at one point I'm not sure what it is now

  • GetFitWithJared
    Jared Shapiro (@GetFitWithJared) reported

    @Aurelian_27 @danno_omen Well if they start holding back Day 1 games they're going to have a big subscriber drop off. CoD makes sense, it's the biggest selling game every year and is stupid expensive to produce. Removing it and lowering the price $7 was a decent trade off, but if you start removing Halo, Gears, Elder Scrolls or Fallout you're going to have backlash. Think of it this way, for every 10 subscribers that keep Game Pass Ultimate over Premium for a month, they get the same revenue as 1 sale. It's easier to sell a $23 sub than a $70 game but then if those users stay on the service, Microsoft gets that money every month no matter what other game they put out.

    @DAKKADAKKA1 Not even modders are going to be able to fix the next Elder Scrolls, they'll be lucky if it even boots up 💀

  • wesleytypes
    Wesley ✨ (@wesleytypes) reported

    I love Creation Engine. Propriety engines play a significant role in forming a game's identity and I would never wish that away. Bethesda is who they are in large part because of this engine. That said, to spend countless years and millions of dollars on a new game and NOT strive to break new ground or do something you haven't before feels like a waste. The Creation Engine hasn't shown a meaningful capacity to grow and change with modern gaming expectation and that's a problem. I still want Bethesda games to feel like Bethesda games, but if Creation Engine 3 doesn't massively impress and prove that it can deliver a truly modern gaming experience, it will be imperative that Bethesda make changes that I don't think they're willing to make. At this point, promising the future of The Elder Scrolls and Fallout on Creation Engine feels like a giant gamble.

    @werty2346 @vicious696 They spent a good couple years making starfield, upgrading the engine, then once that finished went onto elder scrolls while still making starfield DLC and content updates. Doing all this while maintaining a multiplayer live service, developing a newer version of their engine

    @fentanylbrownie "ubiquitous" in elder scrolls games but never really seen it be such a problem anywhere else. Elder scrolls melee combat is remarkably unfun that bypassing it with sneak is the default way to enjoy the game.

  • MisterMalaka
    MisterMalaka (@MisterMalaka) reported

    @KeithandMovies @shinobi602 The problem being solved is having both a Fallout and Elder Scrolls game being made at the same time. New leadership knows how to find a way to make both a Fallout and Avowed too. That just isn't an actual problem since Avowed isn't in demand.
