    @AlmsiviSimp that is because you have not played enderal. Once you play that, nothing elder scrolls will give the same fix

    @DUSKdev I have no insight on this particular issue but I was the 7th or so artist hired for Elder Scrolls online back when ZOS was considered a sister studio to Bethesda and their company policies were frankly...absurd. Back then working in concept art I sketched everything on pencil/paper and had requested a basic scanner for my desk for months, got fed up and decided to bring in my own only to walk into work the next day to see my entire desk being packed up by IT as they were reading paperwork to fire me for breaking employee-code, thankfully my lead at the time saved my ***. Bethesda is a company/studio that's ran by lawyers and very overzealous leadership first and foremost so something this petty doesn't strike me out of the realm of possibility. I was present for a few town halls when New Vegas was in development and it was fairly palpable that Bethesda main had little love for the New Vegas project.

    @MedeirosDa61624 @TESOnline Exactly, it’s your experience. Unfortunately it’s not everyone’s experience. It doesn’t take much to see all the forum, reddit, facebook posts and most importantly what you hear in your community. It’s a growing issue across servers but I’m sure some are worse than others.

    @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

    @The_CrapGamer Xbox COULD be the only console that plays. Halo. Gears. Forza. Fallout. Elder Scrolls. Fable. CoD. (eventually) And more! Exclusives weren't the problem, it's that Xbox didn't have consistently great ones like Sony did. Now they could, and they gave up before even trying!

    @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 Of ALL the Vengeance campaigns I hit a giant lag spike and got booted from the entire game during the recent battle at Chal, it's this one, the one where you messed with AOEs.

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Everything about ESO is broken. Last month I renewed my ESO+ and never got it. ESO reps cast the blame on Sony and the Players. Tons of players affected and have yet to be refunded. 8 years of playing the game I finally gave it up. It pisses me off to even see the game.

  • stikves

    @chaosprimeZ The problem is... they won't be getting those many XBOX exclusives on the PS5 Even if XBOX hardware is insufficient, PS5 is also nowhere near to sustain a 3rd party Microsoft Gaming They will shut down most of the studios, and will only focus on CoD/Forza/Fallout/Elder Scrolls

    @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.

  • GetFitWithJared
    Jared Shapiro (@GetFitWithJared) reported

    @Xbox_SUPERFAN The thing with COD versus other first party games is they have 3 studios working full speed to crank out a $400+ million AAA game annually. Halo isn't doing that. Elder Scrolls isn't doing that. Forza isn't doing that. Those games on Day 1 are are all big value adds for Game Pass. If they remove them, they're going to see massive churn. I'm assuming behind the scenes they either didn't see a big enough bump in subscribers for COD or they saw a lot of people sub for a month or two, only play COD, then bounce. If that's the case, and you have polls all over the internet saying drop COD and make it cheaper, then I could see the business sense there. It doesn't make sense to risk subs and cut other first party games from the service, but there's always a chance the economics change

    @maxdeploy @WarhorseStudios Bethesda made Fallout and Elder Scrolls. What's the issue?

  • NoseOfDeath
    Nose | 🎮 Final Fantasy XV (@NoseOfDeath) reported

    Nope. Skyrim is my first and only Elder Scrolls game and I played it back when it first released on Xbox 360. I wasn't familiar with RPG's either at the time with only Demons Souls and Mass Effect the games I played previously. Took a second but I got through it with no issues.

    @TESOnline It's laggy as it is most of the time you have to double tap for the abilities to work, sometimes triple tap and you wanna add a cross play? People are just gonna leave, I'm on console and every time I'm doing a trial or even a dungeon the lag is unreal. I'm on fiber btw.

    @younghavok Elder scrolls 6? Story mode overwatch game? Crash bandicoot? Spyro? Halo remake? Fallout 5? Fable? Souls like WoW? They didn’t even try

  • AdamHannan7
    Adam Hannan (@AdamHannan7) reported

    @Mr_Rebs_ @ballmatthew @asha_shar Halo, Gears of War, Forza, Minecraft, Call of Duty, Crash Bandicoot, Diablo, World of Warcraft, Overwatch, Doom, Wolfenstein, Fallout and The Elder Scrolls. The fact one company owns these and their platform is crumbling is embarrassing.

    @TESOnline I noticed the xbox play anywhere win 10 version of eso doesnt allow me to communicate with anyone. Any fix for this? No text or voice chats are possible or show up at all from game or guilds.

    the elder scrolls has a scope and scale problem that makes tamriel feel really underwhelming the scope is too wide and the scale is too small

    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

  • ScottyDo48

    @TESOnline None because the “talk to the curator” quest step is broken

    Jan Drelewski (@JDrelewski13996) reported

    @vicious696 What about elder scrolls 6 then ? It looks like if game have high sales potential it will not be on the service. Thats the dangerous precedent and to be honest it’s killing the whole point of gamepass.

  • KtheBarbar46169
    K' the Barbarian (@KtheBarbar46169) reported

    @JeffsawHomes @IGN All while removing CoD, the biggest game in the service, setting a 1 year window for it's release, which is pointless for a mostly online game that does yearly releases. This also sets a precedent for other large games to not be included Day 1. Elder Scrolls VI, Halo 7, E-Day?

    @inkedraven_eso @TESOnline None. Too dangerous. Kicu-Arc prefers drunk-dancing in taverns and becoming the local problem instead. 🦊

    @JezCorden idk MS has been doing well on PC. lots of their games sell. PC gamepass subs are quite high and many of their service games like Sea of Thieves, Elder scrolls online, Grounded etc pull in way more than sonys gaas games on PC. so what would exclusivity accomplish?

    @Loren_A_Sutton @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Is it broken again?! I know the other day my favor was gone and I was no longer in a faction. This is becoming ridiculous

    @playstationyesr @sassykitten666 That will fix it because PC and PlayStation people won't get games like elder scrolls 6 etc that'll make em buy xbox

    @TESOnline So I can play the Night Market on a different character but can’t start the main quest with the curator on it? Please fix this.

    @larptillidie @summergamefest The only game Bethesda is working on right now is elder scrolls. 6. They're not working on fallout 5 for many, many years.
