    @ZikadaPrime Pulling PlayStation and Switch ports of Minecraft, Overwatch, Elder Scrolls and Call of Duty among others out of service would be able to help Xbox.

    Ngl, the part i miss most about being a technician is the problem solving. Like I'd have both earbuds in listening to elder scrolls lore for hours straight while seeing what my retarded coworkers ****** up (usually hooking the waterlines backwards or the power(fire hazard)

    @WoodsMonk @TESOnline Only problem is if we got them to change it for Solo players while this season is active, would they give us back the days we missed, or just say sod you. :/

    @TESOnline Night market quest starter not in the store. The map is broken...can't back out of the zone to see the rest of the map. Everything is hitting way too hard. It's just trash content.

    @RyanStrifePlays @TESOnline Yes 2 team BG was a design error. 8 vs 8 was fun but all the others modes can disappear forever as an error.

    @LegendSince1992 @TESOnline Nope. i'm 3600cp and have all master stations. Master stations is not a problem but if you don't actively grind cp in Black Rose Prison it will take you 10 years.

    The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Anniversary Edition developed by Bethesda Game Studios for the Nintendo Switch 2 port added improvements with an update 1.2 in February 2026 such as a new 60 FPS mode, a stable 30 FPS mode, and reduced input lag but it still costs $60 for a 15 year old game.

    @ZeniMax_Online The Elder Scrolls Online. It's been 25 days this issue has been going on. Previous tickets have been either cancelled or put on hold, your team is stating that it's been pushed to a "smaller" team. I paid for 1 month of ESO plus, never got it....

    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.

    @Frogboyx1Gaming @asha_shar If Sony owned ABK/Zenimax. Xbox would never see Crash, Spyro, Call of duty (after contract is up) Starfield, Elder Scrolls and so on. Xbox is not trying to beat Playstation. They're trying to monetize them. While destroying their own brand. It's fine that only Xbox share games.

  • Darellano344205
    Darellano (@Darellano344205) reported

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline What is the point of performing such lengthy server maintenance when you fail to ban players who use hacks to glitch through the ground in Cyrodiil—and, above all, those bots that farm materials and XP across all of Tamriel? It is contradictory and feels like a mockery of us

    @Swurv__ Crimson Desert isn't an Elder Scrolls killer but it's showing us what could... People say Skyrim holds up but I can't play it again without a few thousand mods, Lorerim/Nolvus completely revamp the game to a modern standard and I can't go back to vanilla. I enjoyed it in it's time but it's dead for anyone that's already been there done that... let's be honest. Bethesda has nothing to worry about on sales and player numbers on release day but they should be worried about retention. I can't play Starfield it's the same old jank it just looks a little better but in a few years once Bethesda tosses it aside and modders do their magic I'll probably put a thousand hours more on it. I'll pre order it the morning of release and wait a couple weeks before the refund deadline to play it, see if Bethesda has improved or not because I can't do another plain three slash bethesda game, I just can't it's 30 years old. It took them until starfield just to figure out ladders... LADDERS meanwhile FO4 modders made functional ladders in their engine they said couldn't do it lol that should be telling us something. The lore will save it, the lore is what most of us care about, we live with the bethesda jank but we shouldn't have to. They also forced their lore writer out, that's a problem...

    @MrRealHumour @xMBGx They would be stupid to ever make them exclusive my point was IF they did Sony would be in freefall They have no alternative to - call of duty - crash or spyro (unless sly or Jak returns) - elder scrolls - gears - Forza - clockwork revolution

    @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.

    What’s the point in playing Elder Scrolls Online if the dungeon queue is going to take almost an hour?! Can’t even do daily anymore because it’s super annoying! @BethesdaSupport fix your crap please…

    @DetectiveSeeds Don't have to be a "detective" to tell that CoD is just the start and future big games like Elder scrolls etc will also be absent from GP day one. Xbox will copy ps plus where big games join the service 6-12 months later 🤷🏻

    @Bielbelial1 @ddggarciaz This is the problem i have with Sony fanboys you can't stop telling lies. For one that list is bullshit your showing life time sales of playstation games. Let's be real for a second Minecraft and Elder Scrolls dog walks anything Sony could ever do.

    This proves HOW FOOLISH you are You have given MS/Xbox license to REMOVE 1st party games using the EXCUSE of cost ratio to XGP users Will Elder Scrolls 6 be in XGP? Maybe the cost of the game is too much per MS You fools have made a mess of a great service all becuz of

    @RinoTheBouncer Not a problem since I'm basically the one person on the planet that's NOT hyped for GTA6. For me, Elder Scrolls 6 is the game I have the most hype for. It's my favorite game series and has been since Morrowind.

    @Infi_Gabe95 @brandon1luv @TRIPSTER0 I can name s bunch they have Forza, Halo, Gears, Crash, Spyro, Fable, Elder Scrolls, and the 1 game Sony and Jim Ryan were crying about being exclusive Call of Duty in 2033 once that contract is up make it exclusive Sonys #1 3rd party franchise goes bye bye

    @TESOnline The NM is so fun, I haven't been doing anything else. The only two things I see we need are more loot from ALL trials to drop randomly, and please fix the quests/arrows that seem to disappear with no sketch book to draw in, for example. The free house, once unlocked, is awesome!!

    SavePoint (@savepoint_tr) reported

    Wild origin story unearthed at PCG towers — the name "The Elder Scrolls: Arena" was basically a last‑minute fix to pre‑printed boxes. 📦🧾🎮 • Ted Peterson says Arena shifted from tournament combat to full RPG as sidequests and dungeon‑delving took priority. • With boxes already printed, devs invented the Empire nickname "the Arena" and Vijay Lakshman slapped on "The Elder Scrolls" — its meaning barely defined. • A serendipitous, awkward label became the foundation of a decades‑long franchise. Would you keep a quirky, last‑minute title if it could become the next megafranchise, or rebrand for clarity? #ElderScrolls #GameHistory
