    I don't really get the Xbox plan here. Even trying to "accelerate" things, you are not going to get a new Halo or Elder Scrolls or Fallout sooner than every 4-5 years. There is still no hard and fast reason to get a console with PC and cloud available. The next actual console is going to be hugely expensive anyway barring significant changes. The most vocal Xbox fans on here cheerleading everything already have a console and Game Pass, and the ceiling for that subscription service is hard to break through, much less making up the losses from the 50% hike. I don't see the vision.

    @stormfall33 Elder scrolls 6 is likely in development hell to some extent. There have been rumours of serious issues with development and I believe that. Skyrim was 2011, GTA V was 2012 and we are still getting GTA 6 first despite the money they make on GTA online.

    @foambreaker @TESOnline Consolidating systems overtime is a very common practice for games that have been in service for 7+ years. Over time some systems become outdated and need a refresh. I'm actually happy ZOS is taking the time to fix up old/outdated systems to keep things relevant.

    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?

  • Falgrin
    Falgrin (@Falgrin) reported

    @EPG_Gaming_247 @MarathonDevTeam Yes, because it's not like we don't have live service games such as World of Warcraft, Final Fantasy Online, Guild Wars 2, and Elder Scrolls Online. There's still a lot more going on, and you want to tell me 10 Years is too long?

    @stormfall33 Well, the logical thing would have been for Bethesda to continue the development of The Elder Scrolls and Fallout, but Starfield made everything move, so perhaps the problem was that third game.

    @TESOnline Yet you never fixed players Night Market progress after you messed up on a server crash and Yanking all progress. Plus you have been given the feedback that Vengeance is terrible and no one wants it… no one plays it. Yall need to start firing people in the main office.

    @Asif_not_here @Grummz Fallout 76 might be in trouble but they have a lot to do on elder scrolls online. So they have SOME time to buy themselves. Iirc 76 doesn't have a lot of ppl playing but I might be wrong

    There's rumors going around that anyone NOT working on Fallout or Elder Scrolls could be facing layoffs (at Zenimax). This is a total reset as Sharma has said. All in on their big IP franchises and if you dont fit that vision, you are on the chopping block.

  • JimoarGaming
    Jimoar (@JimoarGaming) reported

    @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".

    @IsXBOXStillLast @M0NKEYCAN Maybe, maybe not. Imagine if, within a two-year window, the next Doom, Fallout, Elder Scrolls, Tony Hawk, Crash Bandicoot, The Evil Within, Dishonored, Wolfenstein, Killer Instinct, and Diablo all released but didn’t come to PlayStation—do you think that would have no impact?

  • G2ThaUNiT
    G2ThaUNiT (@G2ThaUNiT) reported

    @HazzadorGamin I saw a post from George Broussard from 3D Realms/Apogee that layoffs at Zenimax have already started and that any studio not working on Elder Scrolls or Fallout are out. God I hope that's NOT true!!!

    @Grummz Get rid of all their online live service **** and go back to fallout and elder scrolls. I’m sick of them shitting all over their fans

    Managed to somewhat fix the screen tearing by turning VSync on and capping framerate at 30, but the pop in is still atrocious. Other than that, it’s a fantastic game and really scratches the Elder Scrolls itch. Just, maybe play it on PC if you have one.

    A lot don’t want to pay a monthly subscription service for a game , games have a subscription service apart of game you already paid for is very scummy, it scummy when elder scrolls online did it , it’s scummy when world of Warcraft does it and it’s scummy when FF XIV does it

    @LukeDutchh Totally agree. £100 for GTA6 or Elder Scrolls 6 is fair. Problem is EA etc will see this and start charging £100 for FC/2K etc 😩

    @TESOnline You need to address the problem that caused the game to no longer work before Sept 1. It didn't happen to me, but two of my friends can't play. Just remember it effects the gaming of more than just the people who can't play.

    It has nothing to do with the fact theres a female lead. You don't see Tomb Raider getting hated on. It's the fact studios that take 4-6 years to make games spent time making a game that isn't starring the beloved main character Kratos. Hell people are pissed at Bethesda for making Starfield because it wasted 6-8 years instead of making the next Elder Scrolls. Time is finite for these developers, wasting time on stories no one cares about is the issue.

  • JamieOffline
    Jamie (@JamieOffline) reported

    @BRAP_Podcast I think the problem is people keep looking at Xbox like it's one console company with one goal. "Case by case" makes perfect sense when you remember Microsoft isn't just managing Xbox hardware. They're managing Xbox, PC, cloud, Game Pass, Bethesda, Activision, Blizzard, Mojang, King, and studios that came with existing contracts, platform histories, and audiences. Minecraft shouldn't be judged the same way as Halo. Halo shouldn't be judged the same way as Call of Duty. Call of Duty shouldn't be judged the same way as Sea of Thieves or Elder Scrolls. The idea that every game should follow one blanket exclusivity rule sounds simple, but Microsoft's gaming business isn't simple. People also keep forgetting scale. Xbox is a huge business, but it's still one division inside Microsoft. Microsoft doesn't operate like Sony or Nintendo because Microsoft isn't Sony or Nintendo. Those companies exist primarily to serve their gaming ecosystems. Microsoft's gaming ecosystem exists inside a much larger company. So no, "case by case" isn't mixed messaging to me. It's literally them saying they're going to evaluate each game, studio, audience, contract, and business case individually instead of forcing every title into the same box.
