    @HazzadorGamin That trailer was the telling everybody that after Starfield it's going to be Elder Scrolls. The problem is again, that implied it was already in actual development and therefore would have been out maybe a year or two after Starfield, that isn't the case.

    There it is the official death of any faith I have in a GOOD elder scrolls 6. Veteran employees getting fired because they were being forced to make a ****** live service game and had one single flop in their line of single player open world rpgs is crazy.

    @Gravantus I think the biggest issue is your first point. The largest demo of gamers is young men 15-25 years old. Those people have likely never played a single Elder Scrolls game, yet they are supposed to be hyped for a sequel? Their fanbase has gotten old and moved on.

    Not working on fallout, and didn’t even start working on elder scrolls until this very year. Are they seriously just focusing the entire company on maintaining ESO? Updating starfield?

    @ResidentStevil_ Unreasonably long game dev times are a serious problem with video gaming today, yes. That's not even unique to Valve. The next Elder Scrolls was announced years ago. Beyond Good and Evil 2 has taken longer than Duke Nukem Forever. The last 3D Mario was almost a decade ago.

    @SlasherOfGods @el_centroverita @stormfall33 Starfield's problem was that it felt empty & lacking history Elder Scrolls & Skyrim, there is tons of lore & background that many players know. In Elder Scrolls you find books about it Yeah, a Starfield 2 or 3 might capture that feeling TES/Fallout do, but Starfield 1 couldn't

    @TESOnline Goodbye eso. Your community is toxic and you dont even fix the bugs you have in the game, you just keep adding more stuff with more bugs. Done with your bs and expensive crown store. Ugh GOODBYE. 🤮

  • SilentWraith87
    Robert Gough (@SilentWraith87) reported

    @blacklodgegames @silderfoe Bethesda did that made a boat load of Elder Scrolls and Fallout games, took that money and made a new IP in Starfield, granted it wasn't necessarily a new success but they did it. The problem they have now is not just cost of the games but more importantly the time it takes them

    @xMBGx Does “Fallout” and “Elder Scrolls” include the live service version of the games like Fallout 76 and Elder Scrolls Online

    @ItsYent @DerickZill @TheRealWizar This was the problem I found with Elder scrolls Online. I really did enjoy the game for many years, gameplay was awesome, but in their attempt to not have gear resets, you ended up with stale progression. 7 years in and still using crafted gear from 6 years ago.

    @JuiceHead33 Maybe they should improve how they develop their games so they’re not broken pieces of ****. It’s been too long since their last Elder Scrolls game, unacceptable.

    @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

    @MMORPGcom @TESOnline Content wise its pretty good. The problem was always the boring combat. I got 2000 hours into it. Open world siege PvP was amazing.

    @TESOnline ruined my one relaxation gaming night. The new quest is broken and there is no way to progress with everyone spamming. You suck.

  • nighttime1998
    Nero (@nighttime1998) reported

    @GrassTroll @xaviersonline_ Skyrim at least had a pretty decent world to help make up for its issues. Still far from the best elder scrolls game, but I do still prefer it more than fallout 4. Althouugh I will probably never play it again anyway. As after you've explored the world, the only reason the game became worth owning was for mods. But even that gets boring after a while.

    @XboxTimdog Crash, elder scrolls, fallout, and maybe a couple others won’t be exclusive.

  • SilentWraith87
    Robert Gough (@SilentWraith87) reported

    @HazzadorGamin The problem is that trailer didn't give the impression that "Hey we're in the early stages of planning the next Elder Scrolls game." That trailer implied "It's in active development." when it clearly wasn't. It was basically "yeah we're going to work on TES 6 eventually."

  • cia_rumored

    @AndreBelluzzo @kabrutusdeid The size of the game is not a relevant issue to me. I didn't call them amazing, I just said the games were tasteful. The Oblivion remake is what many Elder Scrolls fans have asked for: a 1:1 update with glitches included. I wouldn't call it amazing, but it's tasteful. And in a world where $ 70–$80+ games exist, they listed it at $50. It's not Game of the Year, but it's a totally fine game for people who've wanted to replay Oblivion without it looking like a potato. Bethesda is a horribly managed company, but this was not a miss.

    @ther3n3gad3 Great point of view, he messed up badly in '76, and even more so with the game's decisions. They still have the problem with the graphics engine, and they have to deliver The Elder Scrolls; they have a lot to worry about.

    @BethesdaSupport just a message to ask the team to look into the #TESOnline EU servers, there was a post made on the forum too, NA server working fine but 201 error message for EU

  • KingFanMan
    KingFanMan Bethesda (@KingFanMan) reported

    @TKsMantis The is no doubt been complete mismanagement of their two biggest games. How do you go over 10 years without even working on a single player Fallout or Elder Scrolls? Only problem, the ones who made that decision are still there.

  • hellfireomens
    ***** umino is ipwg global heavyweight champion (@hellfireomens) reported

    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

  • Core_Vendetta
    Jono 🐯😎🇮🇪 (@Core_Vendetta) reported

    Whether the game was good or bad, very much a not so good entry into elder scrolls franchise, theres a serious problem of companies stripping funds and resources from one game to another while the game suffers bad, just straight milking the fanbase for bare minimum in return

  • kioskmango
    emil (@kioskmango) reported

    @1ialexen @TESOnline They have no reason to not keep it going, it's one of the few live service games that makes them a lot of money to this day

  • Foojack220
    Jimmy Wangler (@Foojack220) reported

    @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.

  • LegacyKillaHD
    Michael (@LegacyKillaHD) reported

    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.
