HowDatFeel (@joseagu59410157) reported@TESOnline How about u Fix your game plz night market still bugged

Bisssccy (@Blockmaster77) reported@VexTheSunEater @BethesdaStudios I don't think I even want an Elder Scrolls 6. Just take a look at the Oblivion remaster. It was full of bugs and performance issues not to mention the weird uncanny redesign of khajiits. As a fan I rather them retire Elder scrolls or sell it.

Gilbeezyskit ✝️🇺🇸 (@Gilbeezyskit93) reported@nuhre_ There are a lot of veteran game devs who demand high salaries and many AAA studios are built in expensive cities to attract talent, requiring higher salaries all around. All of this is multiplied by games taking 7 years now instead of 18 months (the real problem right now). I get wanting to avoid insane Halo 2 levels of crunch, but there has to be a middle ground. KOTOR 2 was made in 14 months. Double that to give more breathing room and you still have a high quality game in less than 3 years. I mean seriously, Elder Scrolls 6 could have been Skyrim with slightly better graphics and a new setting. We should be waiting for ES9 right now. Instead it’s been 15 years…. TLDR: AAA game dev is collapsing because of ridiculous dev times that cause salaries per game to become completely unsustainable.

Insignificant Little Rat of No Consequence (@AnitaBully) reported@ShitpostRock2 The real reason is that a bunch of psychos haven't sat down and decided to make it an issue with a multi-media campaign of videos and articles with titles like "The Problematic Race Relations of the Elder Scrolls"
-
Neon Bird Games (@NeonBirdGames) reported@GameOverThirty @HoegLaw Case in point: Elder Scrolls VI Most people are already jumping on the idea it’d fall under the “single player, therefore exclusive” idea, but Bethesda games are really more broad platforms themselves with mods and such like a “live service” would be
-
Curse (@Cursemark143) reported@tris_ko_nel @mjHushpuppy Well "why now" is because of Asha. Her and Phil's idea of what Xbox should be differ from one another. It was so bad that people thought Xbox was becoming a Publisher rather a Platform competitor and the expectation was that they would eventually ditch the console all together. And Gears of War is not Live Service like Elder Scrolls Online. Gears main attraction is the Story & Coop play. Now to answer "why get an XBOX if its on PC". If you have a PC chances are you are content already because you will have access to XBOX. But for those that only have a PS5 and like having a console over a PC (which is a lot of damn people), the only real way I can see them converting, is exclusives. Great games sell consoles. There a lot of people that still have PS4's and cant afford a PC or PS5 (which has risen in price.) If Asha is trying to make everything at XBOX affordable again with Gamepass, future consoles, and a great line up of exclusives than I believe XBOX can become a huge competitor again for Console sales. I mean idk if Im alone on this, but like I said if I didnt have a PC, and The Elder Scrolls 6 was locked to XBOX/PC, I would buy an XBOX. The same reason applies to GTA6. Its not releasing on PC until after console, and its because Sony expects people to buy their console for ONE game. If you can lock down ONE insanely good game, you can sell your console like hot cakes. If TES6 is locked to XBOX I can see XBOX's getting sold left and right. But maybe Im just glazing The Elder Scrolls lol idk

Mosie Mustard (@Mosie_Mustard) reported@TESOnline I don't think a purple tri-pot will fix that, get well soon!
-
Benjamin Langner (@bglangner) reported@asobercannibal @LRSerling 💯 my issue. Not just this, but the writing in the game as a whole. Just felt like there was so much more that could have been explored but they either ran out of time or just weren't interested, which was shocking given how deep the elder scrolls lore goes
-
Jimoar (@JimoarGaming) reported@Big__TeeJ @FL1NTZ @Zarathos88 They're not the same. Your original post was whataboutism and you conveniently left out cuts at arkane and zenimax where the current rumors are "anyone not working on fallout or elder scrolls is at risk" just to say "look Sony is just as bad as Xbox with this one studio".
-
HowDatFeel (@joseagu59410157) reported@TESOnline @NathanBishop0 Night market is trash fix your game
-
Pooka187 (@187Plink) reported@TESOnline Yet you never fixed players Night Market progress after you messed up on a server crash and Yanking all progress. Plus you have been given the feedback that Vengeance is terrible and no one wants it… no one plays it. Yall need to start firing people in the main office.
-
Isayus1 (@IsayusX) reported@TESOnline @XBOXGamePass Please fix the UI if you haven't already so you get the UI corresponding to the mode you're playing(Controller/M&K) not a Frankenstein mixture
-
Muda (@eyemissxv) reported@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.
-
Shadowe (@ShadoweLily) reported@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.
-
BirthToBurial10 (@BirthToBurial10) reported@asha_shar @asha_shar @XBOX after the Acquisitions every game should have been exclusive every game that's not live service should be exclusive that's how you sell consoles!!just like Sony does it every game is exclusive Elder Scrolls 6 exclusive Fable State of Decay,Blade.. every game
-
Jackson (@jayveeonYT) reported@BROOKSWOODWORKS I'm glad they're doing something because their game pass direction was not working I think they have to reset and focus on exclusives. Fable, Halo, Bethesda's next Elder Scrolls and Fallout games. These are heavy hitter franchises that can revive the brand IF they are exclusive
-
Imakuni? (@6c697374) reported@kojimaicmatters I played the GBA version of FF2, and it was the only one I didn't beat. I got about 3/4ths through, but I just couldn't stand the way you gained stats. Probably annoyed me more than most because it was like retreading my issues with the Elder Scrolls games skills all over again.
-
sukru tikves (@stikves) reported@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
-
MasMenno (@MasMenno) reported@Jorden1506 The only part where it could be lackluster is if you go by exclusives. The overall output of the studios has been great. Over 10 live-service games with constant updates; Diablo 4, Overwatch, Minecraft and Elder Scrolls Online are currently peaking in players. 1/2
-
❄️Albby❄️ (@WeissKnight_) reportedIf you dont expect Fallout76 or Elder scrolls online after the bethesda presents you are stupid Its the same every ******* year with those live service games
-
Jamie (@JamieOffline) reported@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.

Emily (@o_XxEmilyxX_o) reported@TESOnline The new furnishing drop rate is abysmal. Please return the dueling mat to what it was before you “fixed” it. It’s been over a year. The invisible bottom became a feature and people bought a LOT of them for that reason. You really let down the housing community with that “fix”.
-
Dan (@CrikeyItsDan) reported@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.
-
Ryo (@RyTheSciFiGuy) reported@TESOnline Ok Werewolves are done. Now plz fix Vamps so they aren't so crap to play. 1st it shouldn't be -100 health regen at stage 4 it should be +200% at stage 4, you should be able to feed at any time including during a battle not just when sneaking. & xp needs 2b easier to get.

nobodyhere (@etherstorm80) reported@BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Can't sync keep getting connection error of xbox

Firassco_games (@fras88335) reported@FRUMPLEMEI34928 It destroyed open worlds from Ubisoft I seriously hope the elder scrolls 6 Get the job done The crimson desert success I don’t what beathsda and Ubisoft Gonna do now There r in seriously real problem To face
-
Foxhound_N10 (@Foxhound_N10) reported@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 :)
-
PsychoticGoat (@psychoticgoat) reported@TESCountdown Yup, we keep waiting and getting elder scrolls online and fallout 76 live service updates instead. Truly disheartening
-
Life and nature enjoyer 88 👌 (@1996I43994) reported@methylene666 @AntoniusOhii The problem is that the pagan mindset is retarded. There is one world and thus one creator. Paganism only works if you have an elder scrolls type of situation where there are multiple planes of existence each created by God. And even if that was so we only live in one

nobodyhere (@etherstorm80) reported@codman_cody @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Seems to be an xbox issue, downdetector shows
