  @DarkEnzo0309 In the thread it says basically anyone who is not working on Elder Scrolls or Fallout is out. I want to see a Wolfenstein 3 too. But I have a feeling that we wont.

  @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.

  It's been a week and I still cant believe we got a Persona 6 reveal. Now lets hope It won't be a "Elder Scrolls VI" problem.

  @K__Med Here's my expert analysis. Smaller studios were purchased to pad content prior to Zennimax and ABK. Phil gave those studios a lot of rope, because they needed content. The problem is, they were given too much autonomy, probably because of the praise Xbox for the handling of Mojang. Covid delays aside, when all you had to launch from first party in 2022 was Pentiment, it kind of shows how desperate they were. Now that they have AAA output and top tier IP, the overhead from these smaller studios is sucking resources with little to no ROI. I loved South of Midnight, but running that studio for 7 years of development is a drain. To be fair, it probably was a hindrance for the studios as well, because it allowed them to take their time and slow down production, since their budgets weren't a issue with MS backing. When you have big system seller IP like Fallout and Elder Scrolls, you don't need to worry about smaller projects unfortunately. That's why ABK used Raven and Toys for Bob as COD support. I think Asha is seeing that they can get great GamePass content from small 3rd party studios, and not take on the liability of running them. Expedition 33 and Palworld exceeded anything they could do in house, and when something like Flinklock fails, it can easily be overlooked. They are running into an issue where they have too much content, and these smaller titles would not move the needle for console sales or subscriptions. It's sad, but I understand the business side of it. I kind of wish that Xbox just spun off the little guys as their own "indie" style division to work on smaller quirky titles with smaller budgets and quicker turnaround, but something like that would take time, that I'm not sure they have.

  I was thinking about this earlier. Bethesda was so enormous that they had their own stage show dropping games left and right. Now it's just live service Fallout 76 and Elder Scrolls Online and Doom stuff. What a dropoff.

  @DPermabear @PiggyKropotkinn It’s literally top 10 live service game. You don’t just stop Fortnight, FF14, Wow, Elder Scrolls, warframe, Rivals, Genshin, Rocket League etc. Sony is rtarded they bought what they wanted to end it smh

  PsychoticGoat (@psychoticgoat) reported 17 minutes ago

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

  If the fix for Xbox is “more Halo, Fallout, and Elder Scrolls,” that’s not a strategy. That’s a confession that the bench is thin. Speeding up legacy franchises only works if the games stay distinct. Otherwise you get expensive factory output with a familiar logo.

  Elder Scrolls 6 will be and will remain in a permanent broken state just like Oblivion Remastered. Modders don't have time, ressources and willingness to fix this 💩 @Bethesda just doesn't care about their games and customers

  I’ve been quieter on this account just because I try to keep my non Hellaverse yapping over to my side account as much as possible. Mostly talking about media/books I love. If you want to see me crash out when we get no news again about Elder Scrolls 6 tomorrow, it’ll be here

  @katanaollie @Wario64 They do third party deals - the issue Xbox faces is that they have to pay more because they have less market share to make up for the sales difference. The only way to gain attention is either overpay (they have every year) or earn attention through creations. Why would you want Elder Scrolls and Fallout exclusive? What does this bring to an Xbox user? These entities are multiplatform and using your wealth to control the market entity and rug pull is dangerous.

  Jonas (@GuitaristOnBass) reported 23 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.

  @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.

  Paul Tassi (@PaulTassi) reported 32 minutes ago

  I don't really get the Xbox plan here. Even trying to "accelerate" things, you are not going to get a new Halo or Elder Scrolls or Fallout sooner than every 4-5 years. There is still no hard and fast reason to get a console with PC and cloud available. The next actual console is going to be hugely expensive anyway barring significant changes. The most vocal Xbox fans on here cheerleading everything already have a console and Game Pass, and the ceiling for that subscription service is hard to break through, much less making up the losses from the 50% hike. I don't see the vision.

  @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.

• 
  Marielle Redclaw (@MarieleRedclaw) reported 33 minutes ago

  @NikTek They do one at a time The thinking among the fans for a long time is that they really need to split into separate teams independently handling Elder Scrolls, Fallout and now Starfield. Maybe a fourth team who does nothing but fix bugs and do feature updates to the Creation Engine.

• 
  JimRaven (@JimRaven93) reported 36 minutes ago

  @thegamersjoint The difference here is that Bethesda just doesn't have the passion they had back in Skyrim. The next elder scrolls will be full of controversies, least of all will be the bugs. KH4 might have a combat system controversy or a convoluted story issue but it will still be great.

  @TatataToddC @charlieINTEL @TheVerge unfortunately CoD, Candy Crush, Forza, Elder Scrolls Online, Fallout76, Sea of Thieves, Minecraft, Diablo, Overwatch, WoW, Crash n Spyro make them tons of profit.. its the other bullshit: Project Blackbird 400m wasted Perfect dark 200m Everwild 150m redfall 70m hellblade2 80m

  @LouisV1099 @PostUp_SOG It can work if they make Helix cheap. And make Elder scrolls, Halo, Gears, Forza, crash bandicoot, Spyro, Overwatch single player game at a consistent pace. Sony can’t match that volume.

  @vrakhiri Mostly vanilla unless there's a QoL mods that fix something I hate Only exception really is Elder Scrolls, even on day 1 of Skyrim I downloaded a few mods

  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

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

  @IsXBOXStillLast @M0NKEYCAN Maybe, maybe not. Imagine if, within a two-year window, the next Doom, Fallout, Elder Scrolls, Tony Hawk, Crash Bandicoot, The Evil Within, Dishonored, Wolfenstein, Killer Instinct, and Diablo all released but didn’t come to PlayStation—do you think that would have no impact?

  @stormfall33 Elder scrolls 6 is likely in development hell to some extent. There have been rumours of serious issues with development and I believe that. Skyrim was 2011, GTA V was 2012 and we are still getting GTA 6 first despite the money they make on GTA online.

  @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.
