    @TESOnline fix bugs instead making money from fan free ideas :)

  • OGFacelessKing OG FacelessKing (@OGFacelessKing) reported

    @chad_boomerson @JaYdee121 Lol who's defensive? I'm not defending anyone. I'm just pointing out what we see happening. I don't have an issue with Sony having exclusives, I only bring it up when people cry about Elder Scrolls being exclusive. I have a PS5. I have a Series X. I'm not missing anything I want.

  • rich8606 Rich8606 (@rich8606) reported

    @JeffGrubb It will go through. They're using Bethesda as an example of Microsoft monopoly. How many classic IPs can they take away from Sony/Nintendo anyway? Doom Wolfenstein Quake Elder Scrolls Fallout Prey Dishonored Diablo Crash Spyro Warcraft Starcraft Tony Hawk Guitar Hero What else?

  • xinuchan XmasReaper (@xinuchan) reported

    @TESOnline For 3 days instead of through the holidays? Wow.. Also my game hasn't worked for months, it can't get past the menu screen and I haven't had that issue last year.

  • Lorny_Lantz Lauren (@Lorny_Lantz) reported

    @hamm4566 @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Having the same problem

  • TheUnaballer The UNAballer (@TheUnaballer) reported

    @CupK8Games @AskPlayStation Having the same problem…I’m logged into PSN, but Elder Scrolls cannot connect.

  • Puertorock77_ Puertorock77 (@Puertorock77_) reported

    @TheBluRayKing Didn’t MS buy out Ninja Theory, Compulsion games, Obsidian, Playground and on top of all that bought a publisher called Zenimax/Bethesda which comes with around 8 studios and multiple huge franchises like Doom, Quake, Elder Scrolls and Fallout with no problem?

  • JohnWil09065187 John Williams (@JohnWil09065187) reported

    @TESOnline Block's broken, but hey Malibu Stacy has a new hat!

  • Ailtonpsi Ailton, o Lojista  (@Ailtonpsi) reported

    @MuerteRoxxie @TESOnline Same problem for me too.

  • Vohris_GG Vohris (@Vohris_GG) reported

    @DMC_Ryan Hellblade, Fable, Avowed, Elder Scrolls 6 Literally nothing shown Was hoping they’d blow us away But nope, they want to sell you a subscription service but on your Smart TV. They aren’t even trying to sell you an Xbox— just the service. Money money money

  • Jeremy_W1701 Jeremy Webster (@Jeremy_W1701) reported

    @TESOnline I pay good money it this game and now I can't login on my PS5. I guess you all don't need my money no more **** this game I am not playing this pice of **** no more

  • Allan36429099 Allan (@Allan36429099) reported

    @robertsonalisha @TESOnline 1/2 Agreed due to the changes that have occurred over the years. However it is still a good game & has potential. Get back 24 person groups, get rid of flags in imperial city. fix the servers & bugs. Once you choose your pack that's you, no swapping colours.

  • Allan36429099 Allan (@Allan36429099) reported

    @robertsonalisha @TESOnline We don't need additional content now, we need the content we have fixed. Cyrodiil is dead. Imperial city is dead. Hard at times to get a trials team. That's a massive chunk of the game irrelevant straight out the traps. Block not working impacts just about 75% of the game too.

  • ChriGartner Christopher G. (@ChriGartner) reported

    @normalguyin2022 @KoreaXboxnews Will Elder Scrolls 6, Starfield, Doom, Wolfenstein, eg. come to the switch successor console? And would crash, Spyro, Tony Hawks, Overwatch, eg. come to switch or Ps after the acquisition too?

  • Ursinos MandoBear - Stop Delaying the CDB (@Ursinos) reported

    hey @TESOnline what does getting a critical error 9 when trying to start the game mean? #ESOCITE4S22 doesn't even get to the bethesda logo, crashes right after the screen goes blank #ESOFam

  • TheLight5292 TheLight (@TheLight5292) reported

    @TESOnline Yall have a ps5 elderscrolls login bug. Cannot get on game. So happy to spend almost 200$ a year just for eao plus alone!!

  • tmindful182 Fellavin Dineen (@tmindful182) reported

    @ColinKeenan8 @TerryChimaobi @VGC_News Elder Scrolls 6 Hammerfell would be a serious problem for a lot of Ponies. I wouldn’t wish it on anyone… sure some money will solve the issue but not playing ES6 wouldn’t be much of an option

  • hamm4566 Guy LaDouche (@hamm4566) reported

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline I'm getting alternating "login failed-can't connect to playstation network/internal server error" every time I try to login on NA PS servers. Euro servers work, but I'm not going to make a whole new character. Fix this, please!

  • amudao17 Jo's sailor 🇳🇬🇺🇸 (@amudao17) reported

    @grittyrepublic 3rd party deals made before the acquisition talks were signed. Deathloop is now on Xbox because the 3rd party deal is now over. Starfield was going to be multiplatform, Elder scrolls 6 was going to be multiplatform and now they are not. That's the issue FTC has with the deal

  • AlspaughJessie Jessie Alspaugh (@AlspaughJessie) reported

    @we_years @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline I was having that issue. I started doing the small events not the public ones. That was how I got my credit for that

  • FitzFam75 Aaron Fitzgerald (@FitzFam75) reported

    @JamesWi65532826 @charlieINTEL Yet again people miss the point. Both consoles have exclusives and that's fine. But when you buy a company and remove already set franchises like they're already doing with elder scrolls it's an issue. I am fail to see how one company buying everything is good for gamers

  • wallace1723 Christmaspool goblin mode (@wallace1723) reported

    @FrostedBu @Soltfire @TESOnline Glad you're enjoying it. I don't begrudge anyone having fun with the game. The problem we're having is that they aren't focusing any effort towards keeping their long term players. Id go so far as to say theyre actively running us off with the current changes.

  • Idontttttt Miraculous (@Idontttttt) reported

    @TESOnline Canceling ESO plus until you guys finally decide to fix the stuck in combat issue, I spend an hour in a dungeon just to not be able to get to final boss arena so it's for nothing

  • rich8606 Rich8606 (@rich8606) reported

    @joshua_k98 @bdsams Yes and No, Sony bought Bungie, but they will stay independent. Destiny is owned by Sony now I guess, but it will stay multiplatform. We need the equivalent of Crash, Doom, Elder Scrolls, established franchises that will go Xbox exclusive. What's a franchise that Sony bought?

  • moistglisten jike mones (@moistglisten) reported

    @Schwifty9000 @Oti09280470 Not the early elder scrolls games. And not if they where in financial trouble like they where. They probably wanted to get some exclusivity money. Or be acquired.

  • DFR2009 LT (@DFR2009) reported

    @DestinLegarie That’s a grade school error on the part of the FTC, how do you not have the full details from the Zenimax merger before using it to cite? Any concessions would’ve been surrounding Fallout or Elder Scrolls.

  • CupK8Games It's a Cup - It's a Cake - it's a CUPK8 (@CupK8Games) reported

    @BethesdaSupport Elder Scrolls Online - and the error is "cannot connect to Playstation Network" on login

  • rich8606 Rich8606 (@rich8606) reported

    @JeffGrubb It will go through. They're using Bethesda as an example of Microsoft monopoly. How many IPs can they take away from Sony & Nintendo anyway? Doom Wolfenstein Quake Elder Scrolls Fallout, Prey Dishonored Diablo Crash Spyro Warcraft Starcraft Tony Hawk Guitar Hero What else?

  • Allan36429099 Allan (@Allan36429099) reported

    @TESOnline Fix block, go back to 24 person groups atleast for pvp & take flags out of imperial city like the epic good old days where you had to que to get in. The arena distric back in the day was best pvp & best pvp eso ever had.

  • CupK8Games It's a Cup - It's a Cake - it's a CUPK8 (@CupK8Games) reported

    @AskPlayStation hey PS NA! Some of my friends and I are having issues with Elder Scrolls Online being unable to connect to the PSN. Servers say they're up on all ends - y'all have any ideas?
