  @TESOnline You need to address the problem that caused the game to no longer work before Sept 1. It didn't happen to me, but two of my friends can't play. Just remember it effects the gaming of more than just the people who can't play.

  @HazzadorGamin I saw a post from George Broussard from 3D Realms/Apogee that layoffs at Zenimax have already started and that any studio not working on Elder Scrolls or Fallout are out. God I hope that's NOT true!!!

  @TESOnline Servers down again? You clowns already cost everyone a full day on the last shut down which cut into people's "paid subscription" time, there had better be some compensation waiting in the crown store.

  @TESOnline Even better I get dealt cards in my next hand where the player is 100% able to win because they turn all tribute there direction. ESO / Devs know this is a total absolute crock! FIX THE GAME and make it fair!

  @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.

  @IGN Rushing The Elder Scrolls, Fallout, and Halo just to pad the balance sheet for a corporate spinoff is how you get unpolished, broken games at launch. If Asha Sharma forces these studios to sprint to the finish line, she’s going to permanently damage Xbox’s biggest IPs

  @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.

  @imo_omar @G27Status Same with Sony I think cod should stay multiplat but anything that's story driven spyro, crash, fallout, elder scrolls and many more 100% exclusive play the Sony game

  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

  The Crapgamer (@The_CrapGamer) reported 13 minutes ago

  @JPearson96 @VGC_News Live service is stuff like Elder Scrolls Online, Fallout 76, He didn't actually say multiplayer games, he strictly said live service games. Gears has multiplayer but isn't a service game, same with the next mainline Halo, it won't be on PS

  @Grummz "Anybody not working on fallout or elder scrolls is at risk." Wait until these games are finished... heads will roll

  @MrViceKC @GoodGameKofi Like I said I would love to see the Liver service everywhere, single player exclusive strategy. Fallout 5 and Elder Scrolls 6 alone move a lot of consoles, but not if you can just get them on your PlayStation.

  @rpwbrowne To say they don’t have the IP is crazy. Elder Scrolls Fallout Doom Quake Wolfenstein Minecraft Overwatch Call of Duty Candy Crush Crash Bandicoot Diablo Guitar Hero King’s Quest Space Quest Spyro the Dragon StarCraft Tenchu Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater World of Warcraft Fable etc

  @TheGamingLedger I mean she is in a very tough position. Obviously no one is expecting games like Minecraft, Call of Duty, Elder Scrolls Online, Overwatch, World of Warcraft, Candy Crush etc to be exclusive to Xbox. All Xbox fans want is some games to be exclusive. Fable should've never been ported to playstation at all. You have an argument with Halo, Gears and Forza because those are live service games. I dont expect the Forza, Sea of thieves franchise to ever be exclusive to Xbox again. If they want to port Halo mutliplayer they should do along with Gears. However, Halo Combat evolve and Gears E day campaign should've never been ported to Playstation. If none of "Xbox tentpole titles" are exclusive anymore I hope they have a strategy to make new Xbox mascots to replace them in the new era of XBOX. Thats the least they can do to appease fans in my opinion

  @Grummz Get rid of all their online live service **** and go back to fallout and elder scrolls. I’m sick of them shitting all over their fans

• 
  Nintendo Prime (@NintyPrime) reported 31 minutes ago

  IMHO, it sounds like basically copying what PlayStation is doing. Is it online multiplayer service style? We got multi. Is it single player or local play only? Likely exclusive. Beyond current commitments, as he said. Elder Scrolls 6 could be a killer launch exclusive for helix tbh.

  @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Are you guys ever going to fix the animation issue with crystal weapon ? Because La cw la cw la ba just makes your character animation get stuck in a heavy atk animation 😔 this had been happening for so long can we finally get a fix ?

  @xMBGx Does “Fallout” and “Elder Scrolls” include the live service version of the games like Fallout 76 and Elder Scrolls Online

  @TESCountdown Yup, we keep waiting and getting elder scrolls online and fallout 76 live service updates instead. Truly disheartening

  @TESOnline Thanks a ton. There are two tickets involved, one submitted by me 260610-001774, and one submitted by my friend 260610-001873. Both tickets are concerning the same issue.

  Told you all. This is to be expected The real games are crash and elder scrolls Timed at a minimum **** I’m for outright , **** you and buy a xbox or steam energy - position WAR

  Jonas (@GuitaristOnBass) reported 37 minutes ago

  @TESOnline @LordBalvin Don't take this the wrong way, but perhaps it would be better for XBOX to bulk the live service updates into a pre-show or something. It creates a weird dynamic in the showcase to mix them with new titles, not creating the best reactions in viewers— which you don't want either.

  @BRAP_Podcast I think the problem is people keep looking at Xbox like it's one console company with one goal. "Case by case" makes perfect sense when you remember Microsoft isn't just managing Xbox hardware. They're managing Xbox, PC, cloud, Game Pass, Bethesda, Activision, Blizzard, Mojang, King, and studios that came with existing contracts, platform histories, and audiences. Minecraft shouldn't be judged the same way as Halo. Halo shouldn't be judged the same way as Call of Duty. Call of Duty shouldn't be judged the same way as Sea of Thieves or Elder Scrolls. The idea that every game should follow one blanket exclusivity rule sounds simple, but Microsoft's gaming business isn't simple. People also keep forgetting scale. Xbox is a huge business, but it's still one division inside Microsoft. Microsoft doesn't operate like Sony or Nintendo because Microsoft isn't Sony or Nintendo. Those companies exist primarily to serve their gaming ecosystems. Microsoft's gaming ecosystem exists inside a much larger company. So no, "case by case" isn't mixed messaging to me. It's literally them saying they're going to evaluate each game, studio, audience, contract, and business case individually instead of forcing every title into the same box.

  @EPG_Gaming_247 @MarathonDevTeam Yes, because it's not like we don't have live service games such as World of Warcraft, Final Fantasy Online, Guild Wars 2, and Elder Scrolls Online. There's still a lot more going on, and you want to tell me 10 Years is too long?

  Richard Browne (@rpwbrowne) reported 51 minutes ago

  @GameReaper187 The last Doom tanked. Diablo, Elder Scrolls and Fallout are classic PC franchises. This is the problem they have better PC IP than console IP. And people have PCs so that’s where they play them.

  colteastwood (@Colteastwood) reported 51 minutes ago

  "Just 4 Games" was a short term solution and issue for XBOX says Matthew Ball. I'm predicting that most single player games are EXCLUSIVE to almost everyone. Elder Scrolls 6 and such... we'll see.

  @KingpinThawne …sort of? technically speaking? in my mind, the main issue with properly calling them “open world” is that usually, there isn’t a whole lot of stuff to do, at least not compared to stuff like Final Fantasy or Elder Scrolls.
