    @AndresRestart I think the problem with the Star Fox designs is that certain angles and poses make them look really bad. It's like making an Elder Scrolls character who looks great from the front, but then you do the side profile and see that you really ****** up.

    @VicerKat @Rainbow6Game Brother please rub those 2 braincells and just go do something else other game studios are also imcompotent but they dont get the same pressure i dont see u whining abt the many years weve waited for gta6 or any of the Elder scrolls problems

    Bethesda packaged and shipped The Elder Scrolls themselves They learned how to assemble boxes inserts and use the heat gun They spent time shrink-wrapping the games themselves Bethesdas hands-on approach shows commitment to quality control but also means delays for eager fans Bethesda wrapping games themselves while others outsource If you are still waiting for your copy dont blame the postal service blame Bethesda for doing it all themselves

    @xonebros Is it in a vacuum or does the Elder Scrolls have a Crimson Desert problem. Pick one.

    @ElderScrolls Please fix your oblivion remake game that you are ignoring, just like you ignore the next elder scrolls game because you peaked so long ago.

    @TESOnline It's so fun, I haven't been doing anything else. The only two things I see we need are more loot from ALL trials to drop randomly, and please fix the quests/arrows that seem to disappear with no sketch book to draw in, for example. The free house, once unlocked, is awesome!!

    We gotta beat elder scrolls YouTubers with the mace of molag bal for spewing the **** that oblivion leveling is bad and remaster fixed it when the issue is the unique pool is still level scaled horribly and enemy pool of levels still is just reach a breakpoint and its all ogres

    @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...

    @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

    @DetectiveSeeds Don't have to be a "detective" to tell that CoD is just the start and future big games like Elder scrolls etc will also be absent from GP day one. Xbox will copy ps plus where big games join the service 6-12 months later 🤷🏻

    @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!

    @Pirat_Nation There is a very clear expectation from 2 totally different TITANS of the gaming industry. On one hand, Elder Scrolls 6. and on the other, GTA 6 1 is going to literally shut down countries and cause economic issues when it releases. The other one is going to be a 7/10 on IGN

    @Draven_X_23 @Dexerto You really think Elder Scrolls 6 is going to be good after Fallout 76, Starfield, and the Oblivion remaster which is still broken?

  • CameTooFast
    Alex (@CameTooFast) reported

    If this is true, @asha_shar , I think the best thing you could do would be to drop the price of ultimate to either $20 or $25 and stagger the addition of yearly COD titles (and possibly others). COD grinders are going to pay full price for each title, regardless of if you say it'll come to GPU in 3 months (There's a lot of people that buy the game through Blizzard launcher anyways). Each COD title feeds into Warzone, so there's an incentive to play each title to level up guns and get an advantage. Putting it at a 3-month stagger for GPU would pull in the sales from those dedicated to the franchise while also giving a good date for those that wouldn't have bought the game no matter what. As for additional benefits, you could look into first party offerings. Fallout 1st would be an easy addition, as would something for Elder Scrolls Online (as I know they just switched strategies from big expansions to seasonal content like the norm). The problem is, the benefits you add have to be beneficial to justify the price hike. You guys raised the price and gave us Fortnite Crew, which is beneficial to a number of people, but a ton of the other GPU benefits are for already F2P titles, most of which no one cares about.

    @GamewithDave A year ago, I would've said Elder Scrolls: Oblivion, but now I'd say Lunar: Dragon Song. If they could fix the game's infamously godawful gameplay, I'd give it a chance.

    @jizzle701 I don't take no ***** seriously when they mention Elder scrolls bro them shits is boring as **** with trash combat that relieson the community to fix the game & create content. DD2 has it's flaws but I'd play that over any Bethesda game any day.

    @RinoTheBouncer Not a problem since I'm basically the one person on the planet that's NOT hyped for GTA6. For me, Elder Scrolls 6 is the game I have the most hype for. It's my favorite game series and has been since Morrowind.

    @TESOnline This is all great, but can you fix control layout B? You don't junk until you Release the thumbstick. Imagine if you didn't jump until you released the face button. It's awful and has been broken for years now.

    @lohipuikko @pssucks80155 @Nick_Marseil Timed exclusives solves this problem IMO. Gears E-Day? 12 month Xbox Exclusive. Fable? 12 month Xbox Exclusive. Fallout 5 & Elder Scrolls 6? 12 months only on Xbox/PC. You get my drift

    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.

    @Raven0178 @Swurv__ Did you actually play crimson desert? Lol. It obviously would have elder scrolls abilities and combat because its an elder scrolls game just everything about crimson desert works so much better than elder scrolls games, cell based games are cumbersome to the extreme, I shouldn't need seven loading screens in the same town, you know? I'm just kind of over that. I want more of what crimson desert offered me. And id love it if that came from a studio like bethesda with its rich story and lore, because honestly, they suck at the back end ****. I think everyone UNANIMOUSLY agrees on that, hence why "its not a bug its a feature" its such a well known bethesda meme. Everything they make comes riddled with bugs and issues and we are fine with it because its bethesda, I dont want to be fine with it, I want my cake and I want to eat it too, I want the rich story and I want the amazing engine for it to run on in the background. You can keep paying for ur slop if you want though.
