    @Johnnymetal80 @Septic_Sauce The anticipation for the follow-up to Skyrim is a money maker approaching GTA. A lot more upfront sales will be lost with Elder Scrolls 6, so with this move I no longer have confidence in Game Pass as a service. It was about guarantees, no doubt, and that's now gone.

    @TESOnline The problem is that after reaching 10000 favors you have no reason to interact with the night market anymore.

    @Loren_A_Sutton @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Is it broken again?! I know the other day my favor was gone and I was no longer in a faction. This is becoming ridiculous

    The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered from Bethesda Softworks still suffers from severe technical issues including persistent crashes and performance degradation over a year after its April 22, 2025 launch.

    @Infi_Gabe95 @brandon1luv @TRIPSTER0 I can name s bunch they have Forza, Halo, Gears, Crash, Spyro, Fable, Elder Scrolls, and the 1 game Sony and Jim Ryan were crying about being exclusive Call of Duty in 2033 once that contract is up make it exclusive Sonys #1 3rd party franchise goes bye bye

    @Jetifyed2077 The problem with the Elder Scrolls having classes was the whole "Play how you like" thing. If they had done DnD style rules, the Class system would have worked. But as it is...

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Crossplay or not we pay for a service and this maintenance means most people can’t play today

    @Xylus19 @Dee_Batch @klobrille Both Zenimax/Activaion are 1st party but have a legacy of being multi platform. I do believe new IP singleplayer IP should at least be timed exclusive. Though I have no issue if Elder Scrolls is timed for for exclusive, up to them and data

    @TESOnline Lol fix your game night market worst event ever still buggy just like your game from start row for 2 billion company u guys are sure cheap to fix it trash mode loot from event u still got buggy from back in the day lol so sad my opinion

    @pizzamoney83 @TESOnline Where in night market you need to be elite player? :) difficulty there mid between vet dungeons and vet trials. Any average group can do this. There's zero new mechanics - a bit reworked old bosses, without any new mechanics. Problem there - excessive grind. It just boring.

    @AlmsiviSimp that is because you have not played enderal. Once you play that, nothing elder scrolls will give the same fix

  • trevorriegerxxx
    Trevor Rieger (@trevorriegerxxx) reported

    The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered by publisher Bethesda Softworks has not received a formal PC patch since Update 1.2 was released in July 2025. Frame rates dropping and traversal stuttering are still a problem for players.

    @maxdeploy @WarhorseStudios Bethesda made Fallout and Elder Scrolls. What's the issue?

  • alienteslax
    Ron Paul🇺🇲 (@alienteslax) reported

    @TESOnline It's laggy as it is most of the time you have to double tap for the abilities to work, sometimes triple tap and you wanna add a cross play? People are just gonna leave, I'm on console and every time I'm doing a trial or even a dungeon the lag is unreal. I'm on fiber btw.

  • Lordofsparta
    Luminous Beings are We… (@Lordofsparta) reported

    @tphill779 @TESOnline Yea same here. Ran most of the dailies but not the boss quests there wasn’t enough folks around to get a group. Had no issues on a vamp nb with high regen sneaking around for the other quests

    What’s the point in playing Elder Scrolls Online if the dungeon queue is going to take almost an hour?! Can’t even do daily anymore because it’s super annoying! @BethesdaSupport fix your crap please…

    @arthurianmaiden Disliking elder scrolls is a red flag fear not lord vivec will fix this

  • GetFitWithJared
    Jared Shapiro (@GetFitWithJared) reported

    @Xbox_SUPERFAN The thing with COD versus other first party games is they have 3 studios working full speed to crank out a $400+ million AAA game annually. Halo isn't doing that. Elder Scrolls isn't doing that. Forza isn't doing that. Those games on Day 1 are are all big value adds for Game Pass. If they remove them, they're going to see massive churn. I'm assuming behind the scenes they either didn't see a big enough bump in subscribers for COD or they saw a lot of people sub for a month or two, only play COD, then bounce. If that's the case, and you have polls all over the internet saying drop COD and make it cheaper, then I could see the business sense there. It doesn't make sense to risk subs and cut other first party games from the service, but there's always a chance the economics change

    @Jenbox360 @emiya_ze @geis_shane The PlayStation brand is so much more successful than the Xbox that I think if it isn't a games-as-a-service product, then it shouldn't be on PlayStation. No Halo, no Gears, no Fallout, no Doom, no Elder Scrolls. Is that good for the consumer? No, but this is about the brand.

    @MedeirosDa61624 @TESOnline Exactly, it’s your experience. Unfortunately it’s not everyone’s experience. It doesn’t take much to see all the forum, reddit, facebook posts and most importantly what you hear in your community. It’s a growing issue across servers but I’m sure some are worse than others.

  • Nethilez
    Nethilez (@Nethilez) reported

    @Xylus19 @Dee_Batch @klobrille I see no issue either but that’s the logic. Elder Scrolls became multi platform so I understand if future iterations are as well. As for Sony tactics, Square Enix is backing off because it’s not profitable for them. But it’s more about expectations for each 1st party studio 1/2

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Good! Fix not giving players their ESO Plus subscriptions they paid for.

  • nichtnoki
    Doomer Fuggs hier mit Klarname! (@nichtnoki) reported

    @RonnieBlaz3 @TESOnline I play currently on PC/EU and I played on Xbox/EU till 2019. PvP were always laggy. It was the worst in 2017! The problem was the netcode and not so much the servers. Servers became better though. Much less problems with connectivity and rarely lags in PvE raids and stuff. PvP still shity though bc, like I said, netcode! To much garbage requests vom the server leads to too much data that has to be handled. They should really redo that from scratch with a tighter code. So better no usage of AI bs. They will probably not do this o.o"

    @TESOnline Y'all gonna fix Tales while you're at it? The game is toxic...and trying to enjoy a casual NPC match is insanely hard to do when they cheat. The players have PROVEN the NPCs cheat...Fix this. It doesn't add "difficulty", it's just patently unfair.

  • xycofox

    @ZeniMax_Online The Elder Scrolls Online. It's been 25 days this issue has been going on. Previous tickets have been either cancelled or put on hold, your team is stating that it's been pushed to a "smaller" team. I paid for 1 month of ESO plus, never got it....

    GeForce now is trash. Elder scrolls online keeps getting this weird bug. It's the wrong button binding and I can't fix it. Too many problems with these streaming services.

    @brockpierson Elder Scrolls Online, Skyrim or Morrowind or Oblivion, Mass Effect Legendary, Witcher 3, or Cyberpunk 2077. The issue with doing it 12 hours a day if an MMO would be downtime due to maintenance!
