    I’ve installed @TESOnline again. If they still haven’t fixed gamepad input on #macOS I’m uninstalling it again. It’s such an easy fix. Apple provides all the how-to in detailed documentation along with example code. Here’s hoping it’s fixed. Let’s see. Stay tuned.

    @SonOfSparda47 @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Wait I believe I am having this same issue you are experiencing maybe we can help each other? So me and my bf have been playing fallout 4 and skyrim for months now. But only recently after purchasing something from the creation club (we used mods before creation club purchase)-

  • panther_spots 🍑 Big *** Panther 🍑 (@panther_spots) reported

    @DwemerAutomaton @TESOnline An overly complicated card game Zenimax pushed when we were asking for server fixes for lag and connection issues.

  • ginjar81 ginjar 🗣️ (@ginjar81) reported

    @TESOnline There's an issue I ran In to where upon trying to learn the card game I only heard about half of the instructions then cuts out so I had no idea what to do

    @TESOnline love event, on a side note, can you fix spaulders of ruins animations? it just stops workings, also add an buff or debuff icon so regarless of the animation state i can try the set, Thanks

  • CoreyBroussar15 Corey Broussard (@CoreyBroussar15) reported

    @EntwinedPuppet @TESOnline @FemaleLegends Yea it sounds sweet because it’s gonna be broke asf especially on WW builds which are already broken but since ZoS doesn’t care about PvP I doubt they will fix this.

  • CaffeineMayhem CaffeineMayhem☕️ (@CaffeineMayhem) reported

    It's a nice gesture, but overall... not an improvement and doesn't address ACTUAL ISSUES PEOPLE HAVE. I just play #ESO for 8-12 hours a day, I'm not a focus group so @TESOnline doesn't care...

  • NoCoupForYou NoCoupForYou (@NoCoupForYou) reported

    @yickythemando @TESOnline In Greyhost? It was so bad Friday I cancelled my sub. Don't act like it hasn't been an issue for years.

  • Jesse_T_White Jesse White (@Jesse_T_White) reported

    @FenixFromAsh Microsoft has already confirmed that Elder Scrolls VI, Redfall, and Starfield are Xbox exclusive. The Bethesda games will be Xbox exclusive. The Activision games though like Call of Duty and Crash Bandicoot, those I see being multiplatform.

  • rabid_lobo Rabid lobo (@rabid_lobo) reported

    @TESOnline @FemaleLegends Like fix the lag In pvp Xbox also the pvp is u fair and unbalanced when it comes to factions. It’s not fun and it’s not worth the time anymore

  • CoreyBroussar15 Corey Broussard (@CoreyBroussar15) reported

    @TESOnline Not ready for the new broken mythic Oakensoul ring 😐

  • vagelissimakos vagelis simakos (@vagelissimakos) reported

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline @fallout 4 still has the zero kb glitch

    @NoCoupForYou @TESOnline Was out all weekend. Didn't see that many issues

  • DianneMock Dianne Mock (@DianneMock) reported

    @TESOnline Hoping you extend it cause you still owe us after all the issues we’ve had to put up with!

  • a2raya1 Scorpion (@a2raya1) reported

    @TESOnline @FemaleLegends you should fix the server first since its a mess..

  • SonOfSparda47 SonOfSparda (@SonOfSparda47) reported

    @Bunnyskoop @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Additionally not being able to log in to Bethesda, Sometimes turning the game off and back on again will fix it but that's not a creation club thing that's a Bethesda's a bunch of morons thing.

  • kyluxtrashpit Orange-Black Ship Hell (@kyluxtrashpit) reported

    @lingering_nomad Tbh this is a problem BW is going to run up against eventually - because the games are relatively close together (e.g. Elder Scrolls has Decisions but the games take place hundreds of years apart so they don't matter in the next one). It'll become too complex to maintain the

  • Bunnyskoop 🎀 Bunny Boy 🎀 (@Bunnyskoop) reported

    @SonOfSparda47 @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline We thought something happened to our ps4, it's a little old so yaknow. Tech malfunctions. But all our other games run perfectly fine, no error message crashes, the controller doesn't turn off. So we stopped playing fallout4, switched back to skyrim. And it was working great

  • Bunnyskoop 🎀 Bunny Boy 🎀 (@Bunnyskoop) reported

    @SonOfSparda47 @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline If purchasing from their creation club is causing a serious glitch in their games, that's insanely unacceptable and I totally see your stand point of this. You may have helped me and my bf finally figure out what's wrong bc its only bethesda games on our ps4 thats doing this.

  • GarrethTune2 Garreth Tune (@GarrethTune2) reported

    @TESOnline is there any way I can get help with trying to get my account unbanned cause when I try sign in to appeal it says login error because my account is banned

  • karlmc91 Karl Mc (@karlmc91) reported

    @TESOnline It's not too late, edetic memory: add the books from the summerset zoo that we cannot get to anymore to outside the door. And fix the books fallen through the pedestal in each elder scroll temple. Thanks

  • DilutedMarbles Lindsey Sommerfeld (@DilutedMarbles) reported

    @KafkaDarren @GameSpot Sad I will be missing out on the next Elder Scrolls do to exclusivity (could only buy one console, got a PS5) and don't give a hoot if Seinfeld or Starfeld is not working properly. Microsoft is setting you up for advertisements in games you already paid full price for.

  • dinokstrun Dinok (@dinokstrun) reported

    @D3monWo1f @TESOnline @FemaleLegends Because only a very small amount of people care about it. The game has so many issues that aren't getting resolved so people are choosing the dunk & meme on the game.

  • ZamaniOfficial Farouk (@ZamaniOfficial) reported

    @GarrethTune2 @TESOnline Try @hytechcyber now to fix your account immediately

  • broisyouserious Payam ♦️ (@broisyouserious) reported

    @Godplexity I feel like characters wont be an issue and graphics will definitely be valid, but I am worried about the combat cuz the combat has always been iffy in every elder scrolls game

  • CoreyBroussar15 Corey Broussard (@CoreyBroussar15) reported

    @karlmc91 @TESOnline @Deltiasgaming1 Or the broken WW builds that are gonna come out with this 🙃

  • Bunnyskoop 🎀 Bunny Boy 🎀 (@Bunnyskoop) reported

    @SonOfSparda47 @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline - we kept getting a error message, the game would crash maybe 10 times during a 3h playthrough. Got to the point where we had to delete saved data and everything in hopes to fix it. It eventually started to bug out our controller too, turning it off or drifting it almost.-

  • HoldomSeb Seb Holdom (@HoldomSeb) reported

    @TESOnline Better fix the notorious voice chat is unavailable issue that’s still not been fixed since launch as I’ve been reading
