  @PaulTassi Isn’t Halo now considered a live service franchise? Elder Scrolls 6 could be exclusive when it releases in 10 years though.

  @TESOnline Also, @TESOnline, one thing I’d like to see change for the future. There's one huge problem in Grayhost Cyrodill, and it dulls the game. NOBODY WANTS TO DIE, and I'm not talking about coordinated ball groups; I'm talking about other solo players where eight people are chasing them, and they can not only wipe all of them but heal through everything. I'm a solo and a fight die repeat, no biggie. But the endless chases where one person can stop play so we can’t move on to something new are annoying. If they are good to 1 v 3, fine, but NOT entire armies for one person. Make some bunker buster sets and mythics, please and thanks :)

  @TESOnline @TheJackalAgenda What I want to see happen with ESO as the game continues to evolve is the pure classes actually to FEEL Close to the lore. Each should have a key strength and weakness. The entire combat system should revolve around that, not a meta. A Sorc should be the king of ranged AOE/Bombs, weak up close, or no shields. A Nightblade should be the king of single-target damage and deleting any player (burst), scaled from their health/armor if they take the time to hunt undetected. But it's the sacrifice of being a glass cannon. An Arcanist should be the king of ranged single-target damage. And a Dragonknight should be the king of toe-to-toe battles, one-on-one, but not as bursty, but very strong defensively, as the standard well-balanced of all, but not superior to the rest. Right now, you have kill screens filled with me, too, DKs, and it's like watching the Clone Wars in Cyro. But each of these characters should be a toolbox in its own right for vet players. Is there a necro tank that refuses to die? Grab the Arcanist beam to the face, huge DOT, and problem solved. Are there nightblades all over the little village? Grab the sorc and start raining huge AOE’s to reveal and drop. A pesky Templar that won't go down? Grab the Dragonknight. But the combat system has felt for years like it was tailored to the sets and mythics rather than to specific characters to upgrade your toolkit. I was deeply disappointed in this video when Asmon who I enjoy flat out walked away from camera for two whole minutes during your game showcase. Then I had to look up why. And apparently, he criticized the combat system in 2019, saying it was clunky and dropped the game entirely, though he noted it was beautiful. That should concern you. These things should make sense to the average player. Feel like a quiet solo night hunting alone? Nightblade. Feel like brawling it out in a fistfight with a large group. DK. Want to try ranged bombing? Arcanist. But tie it all together, please make the story and the battles make sense with the combat instead of making one way overpowered character (DK), everyone copies, and you get the same kill screen. Otherwise, you are going to turn average NEW players away, and I really love this game a lot to go forever, especially all the friends I've made :) See where I'm going? I don't want to play the meta, I want to play what fits my playstyle and themes for that mood. Why wouldn't a High Elf magika Sorc be the best for PVP instead of stamina? So keep going, EVEN if it ruffles the feathers of the sweaties who don't want change or to keep it the same old same. Those people retire and need to be replaced over time anyway, and you want to sell more shinys, right? Please pass it on @TESOnline

  @DrFuryWolf @CultureCrave @theinformation I’m hoping it means they use one there 20+ studios to make games for each others ip’s. Why not have obsidian make a fallout, or inexile make an elder scrolls. Would be sick to see a doom from the coalition or even a halo, or ID making a cod, double fine a crash game, etc.

  @Kylerm146110M @JuiceHead33 I don't imagine they will, live service and games with a long multi-platform legacy like Elder Scrolls and Fallout will likely stay multiplat But we will see, things have been changing quickly

  @aiiygatorz A game im still upset about... I think they realized that their live service game Elder Scrolls Online is more profitable than any other game they could ever produce. Which is why ESO is so ****** up.. lmao

  @VexTheSunEater @BethesdaStudios I don't think I even want an Elder Scrolls 6. Just take a look at the Oblivion remaster. It was full of bugs and performance issues not to mention the weird uncanny redesign of khajiits. As a fan I rather them retire Elder scrolls or sell it.

  @djkkyle @orielkiller @shinobi602 I don’t live on Twitter, FMS was broken at launch, same with halo infinite, starfield did well, the rest are good but not system sellers like gears, next mainline balo, elder scrolls 6 etc.

  @pipkinpippa @Aquadile96 Its gameplay was okay, but its lore causes a lot of problems. You didn’t play the earlier games so you wouldn’t see it, but that’s really what divides the Elder Scrolls community over it.

  @Jiujitsu45 @FuuTop1 I'd rather the Sony strategy. Live service everywhere, single player exclusive. Fallout 5 and Elder Scrolls 6 will sell consoles, lots of them. But not if you can get those games on PS as well.

  Cody (@123NewsX) reported 38 minutes ago

  Been a huge problem for a long time. In 11 years we’ve only got 2 mainline halo games. In 10 years only 2 mainline gears of war games. Not to mention the mess with Bethesda. 11 years since the last fallout, 15 years since the last elder scrolls

  @Grummz The industry keeps acting confused while the answer is right in front of them. Fallout 76 and ESO soaked up years of time and resources while fans have been begging for a new Elder Scrolls. Most players don’t want endless live service slop, cash shops, and seasonal grinds. They want the next great RPG. Stop giving people what investors want and start giving them what gamers actually asked for.

  @dadgamer.bb (@blake_bean) reported 43 minutes ago

  @dtv20 @JezCorden Man, idk how many times I have to say it. Yes, all true but theyve only had all of these studios with all these IP for 2 years total..Your argument is invalid, we do not know what all of their IP now could do until the games actually come out. Like I said theyll eat **** for a few more years but people are not gonna just be like ehh I wont play Elder Scrolls, Doom, Wolfenstein, Fallout, Starcraft, Tony Hawk, Crash Bandicoot, Diablo, Overwatch, World of War craft Spyro, Forza, Halo, Gears of War, Guitar Hero, Call of Duty, Tony Hawk, and these are just the known IP they will and are making sequels too and not counting the original games we already know about Blade, Clockwork etc . So, the old argument of X Box can not do hardware is completely invalid until we see how these big acquisitions play out If theyre smart, they make all of that exclusive, and theyre consoles sell off the shelves.

  @Grummz Why is he sharing insider rumours in one message, but then acting like he is too principled to report on something that wasn't public in another? The truth is, if he knew that everyone not working on Fallout or The Elder Scrolls was at-risk, then we would have reported that too.

  Curse (@Cursemark143) reported 49 minutes ago

  @tris_ko_nel @mjHushpuppy Well "why now" is because of Asha. Her and Phil's idea of what Xbox should be differ from one another. It was so bad that people thought Xbox was becoming a Publisher rather a Platform competitor and the expectation was that they would eventually ditch the console all together. And Gears of War is not Live Service like Elder Scrolls Online. Gears main attraction is the Story & Coop play. Now to answer "why get an XBOX if its on PC". If you have a PC chances are you are content already because you will have access to XBOX. But for those that only have a PS5 and like having a console over a PC (which is a lot of damn people), the only real way I can see them converting, is exclusives. Great games sell consoles. There a lot of people that still have PS4's and cant afford a PC or PS5 (which has risen in price.) If Asha is trying to make everything at XBOX affordable again with Gamepass, future consoles, and a great line up of exclusives than I believe XBOX can become a huge competitor again for Console sales. I mean idk if Im alone on this, but like I said if I didnt have a PC, and The Elder Scrolls 6 was locked to XBOX/PC, I would buy an XBOX. The same reason applies to GTA6. Its not releasing on PC until after console, and its because Sony expects people to buy their console for ONE game. If you can lock down ONE insanely good game, you can sell your console like hot cakes. If TES6 is locked to XBOX I can see XBOX's getting sold left and right. But maybe Im just glazing The Elder Scrolls lol idk

  @asha_shar @asha_shar @XBOX after the Acquisitions every game should have been exclusive every game that's not live service should be exclusive that's how you sell consoles!!just like Sony does it every game is exclusive Elder Scrolls 6 exclusive Fable State of Decay,Blade.. every game

  @GameOverThirty @HoegLaw Case in point: Elder Scrolls VI Most people are already jumping on the idea it’d fall under the “single player, therefore exclusive” idea, but Bethesda games are really more broad platforms themselves with mods and such like a “live service” would be
