    @NebsGoodTakes It’s funny to me how Bethesda tried the live service thing with Elder Scrolls, it didn’t work, and they still thought it was a good idea to do with Fallout.

    @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.

    @IGN if the game doesn't need a hd and a disc to load so any lag or loading isn't the issue, it could be good, but if it's exclusively online then not too good. nintendo and sony may have revealed the extinction of compact discs and it's worrying me because it overlaps with films and music. is it all transitioning to digital? maybe the game has an algorithm built in now that updates with elder scrolls, gta, fable, or any mmorpg? the physical disc is the original game so it's part of making sure the original game loads, right? @Twitch has revealed video games vary depending on where you buy them... maybe the future of video games has an algorithm now? this will piss people off, people have tested algorithms online for awhile and i don't think they like it. with algorithm operators steering a choose-your-own-adventure style fable? elder scrolls? final fantasy? detroit: become human might go sentient in the next one? or any mmorpgs are now all within the realm of blade runner? all video games going cyberpunk might be glitchy...

    @UESP_net The 7 years burnt on Starfield could’ve produced both a new Elder Scrolls and new Fallout game, and had it done so, there’d be a lot less people losing their jobs right now. What an unforced error…

    Gta 6 buyers really are smooth brained and dont realize they just let companies know they can do away with physical media. 100 dollars for a code? U do realize this creates a slippery slope right? Whats next? Fallout? Elder scrolls? Call of duty? 1 crash and its over

    Obsidian was always openly progressive The problem with the Outer Worlds and Avowed is that everyone wanted them to be FO or Elder Scrolls style of open world RPG and they clearly were not.

    @KingFanMan @Microsoft 14 layers of management is far too many. Nothing moves efficiently when every idea and decision has to fight its way through that much bureaucracy. Here’s a simple way to picture it: Try dragging a 140-pound weight across the room. It’s doable, but it’s exhausting, you move slowly and burn through a ton of energy. Now take away 90–110 pounds and try again. The lighter load travels much farther, much faster, with far less effort. When that “weight” represents creative ideas, design decisions, and priorities, too many layers create massive drag. The result is stagnant complacency. Xbox needs to be able to move again. We need quality over quantity. Bethesda should have been much further along with The Elder Scrolls VI by now, and a new mainline Fallout game should feel more imminent especially after the huge momentum from the TV series. Instead, for years resources went toward supporting live service titles like Fallout 76 and The Elder Scrolls Online while the big single player RPGs that define the studio took a backseat. The hardcore players who keep those live service games running do valuable work, but they don’t move consoles or create the same cultural moments that a major new Elder Scrolls or Fallout release does. I do feel bad for the people who got laid off plenty of talented developers got caught up in this. Spreading the studio too thin across too many projects clearly wasn’t working. Hopefully this reset forces a sharper focus on the core franchises so the next big games actually land with real impact.

    Actual cursed prohect, Elder Scrolls V.I has to follow: Bethesda's most disapointing game (Starfield) Broken game (Fallout 76) AND lauded game (Skyrim) and the game they most need to recapture, is the one modern Bethesda is least related to...

    @ResidentStevil_ Unreasonably long game dev times are a serious problem with video gaming today, yes. That's not even unique to Valve. The next Elder Scrolls was announced years ago. Beyond Good and Evil 2 has taken longer than Duke Nukem Forever. The last 3D Mario was almost a decade ago.

    A lot don’t want to pay a monthly subscription service for a game , games have a subscription service apart of game you already paid for is very scummy, it scummy when elder scrolls online did it , it’s scummy when world of Warcraft does it and it’s scummy when FF XIV does it

    @Stallion83 Ways for Xbox to win: 1. Stick to the big IP's (although this was a problem at one point) 2. Name the new system Xbox 720 3. Show commitment to both digital and physical 4. Make playing online free 5. Drop game pass altogether or make it $10-$15 for indie games / legacy titles 6. Launch system with Elder Scrolls 6 7. Just make their games based off of what they were during the 360 days 8. Lean in to nostalgia of the 360 since we are at that point 9. Players can use current controllers on new system to help save money. 10. Make COD exclusive/timed exclusive 11. More console exclusives

    @JuiceHead33 I think that it shouldn’t take a decade to get another elder scrolls game. We went from Morrowind to Oblivion in 3-4 years. Oblivion to Skyrim in 5. There is clearly issues at Bethesda if they can’t manage to get a single game out that they announced more than a decade ago.

    @WinC_Gaming oh idk...when you make a ******* game that people want to buy rather than make a never ending live service Elder Scrolls or Fallout game that no one wants.

    @Vara_Dark Gone will be the days when you can perform glitches by cleaning the cache to delete patches. I remember performing the cache cleaning glitch to get the Mace of Doom in Elder Scrolls: Oblivion for the Xbox 360. I personally only buy digital games, but killing physical media is stupid.

  • blake_bean
    @dadgamer.bb (@blake_bean) reported

    @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.

    @AnimateZed Nobody cares about ESO man just like nobody cares about Fallout 76. Live service slop and it’s a main reason neither elder scrolls or fallout has gotten a main line game in what over a decade. Todd told Microsoft 2 generations ago when they bought out Bethesda NEW ELDER SCROLLS

    @DaysBehindHQ @Pirat_Nation The problem is they did not utelized those Studio's strengths, How do you buy Bethsheda and not make a new Elder Scrolls game, or Obsidion and not make a new Pillars of Eternity!?

    Captain OG (@CaptainOGBobby) reported

    @IGN They should have moved on like 5 years ago. That’s the issue with these studios, they beat their games for Pennie’s when development of new games (with dedicated focus) would pay out more. We should have an elder scrolls online 2 at this point

    @Wwweffpo @RinoTheBouncer Wrong. Sony doesn't have the rights to Sonic, Crash Bandicoot, Spyro, Doom, Fallout, GTA, The Elder Scrolls, Final Fantasy, Bubsy, Assassin's Creed, etc. They only have rights to the stuff they publish. As a result, any of this stuff can be removed at any time...

  • darkprometheus1
    darkprometheus112 (@darkprometheus1) reported

    @SunnySideBot @9mmsmg Yeah the argue is retarded. They have immediately fired like 1000 or 1500 and another 1000 will be done by the end of the year because they were making games no one ******* wanted this. And with this also, xbox is demanding the studios they bought like bethesda to go back to making games people want and not more live service bullshit. Essentially they told them to actually start heavy dev on elder scrolls 6 instead od slow rolling **** cause of the live service game. Now idk how true this is cause its a rumor that Xbox leadership also told bethesda to not even think of another fallout game and gave that develop to obsidian for right now. Which makes sense cause elder scrolls 6 was announced a decade ago.

    Sensible decisions to fix Phil Spencer’s mess. Maybe we’ll even see new Elder Scrolls and Fallout games a bit faster as well.
