    "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.

    @Grummz Todd needs to go.. he is the problem … elder scrolls and fallout have outgrown him .. there’s genius teams stifled by him that exist

    @Genie_93 @BBCNews If Elden Ring’s servers turn off, it’s playable. ARC Raiders is useless if the server turns off. The monsters are designed to be beaten by teams unless you want to grind for some reason. There’s also special events. Most live service is the second bucket. How many people actually play the same game for years if it’s not a social game with a community? ie world of Warcraft vs elder scrolls.

    @danno_omen @Sonnie_Slim Well live service are the games they want for sure. Sticky games are extremely valuable in this economy but between those 2 games, budget vs profit will tell but mega hits would be the CoDs, Elder Scrolls, Minecrafts as the surefires. Outside of that, we'll soon discover how low their bar is as I see games coming from id Software in a shaky position 🫣

    The Elder Scrolls 6 is absolutely going to be an Xbox console exclusive. If you missed it, Matt Booty said that all live service games will remain multiplatform and other games will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. The goal of exclusivity is always to sell consoles, and I can’t think of a game that would be better to sell consoles than Elder Scrolls VI. If Asha is serious about getting Xbox consoles back to being the focus, I think it’s a near certainty that it will be exclusive. What do you think?

    @gamer5695 @charlieINTEL The 2.0 didn't help them it was still crap, the engine isn't even the problem with Bethesda it's the devs and Todd Howard they don't know how to make good games anymore. I wouldn't be surprised if elder scrolls 6 is a MMO and they continue with the slop.

    @pushsquare So fake bro all live service everywhere all prior agreements honored….system seller games 1-2 a year like Elder Scrolls 6 exclusive….all others multiplat. Both companies will have 1-2 console exclusive games a year when Helix drops Xbox will have a 1000

    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.

    @RossTweetsGames Stop the fake weirdo confusion all live service everywhere all prior agreements honored….likely big system seller games exclusive 1-2 a year just like PS….pretty sure if you want to play Elder Scrolls 6 on a console better buy a Xbox

    @thunderba11r I mean, elder scrolls 6 is the game they’re working on right now and have been for some years. I think the issue was announcing it waaaaaay too early. I also don’t blame them for trying something different with starfield, even if it didn’t totally pan out how they wanted.

  • ShadoweLily

    @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.

  • TheBiggestYonk
    Big Yonk (@TheBiggestYonk) reported

    @Jetifyed2077 The problem is modern gaming development time being like 7+ years in some cases, and instead of literally just making a different studio, Bethesda would rather take 14+ years to create a new IP + a new Elder Scrolls game before doing the next Fallout. Skyrim was in 2011 lol

    @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

    @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

    @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.

  • AshenOne_VI

    @Ak11810723K I think TES VI probably won’t have the same loading screen issues as Starfield. The problem with Starfield wasn’t just the engine. It was the game’s structure. Traveling frequently involved moving between separate spaces such as your ship, space, and planetary locations, often with loading screens in between. If TES VI is a more traditional Elder Scrolls game with one large world, loading screens may feel much less intrusive, even if caves and interiors still have them. That said, I hope there are fewer loading screens than in Skyrim. By today’s standards, having a loading screen every time you enter a cave, dungeon, city, or building would still feel like a lot…

    @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

    @TESOnline Y'all gonna fix Tales while you're at it? The game is toxic...and trying to enjoy a casual NPC match is insanely hard to do when they cheat. The players have PROVEN the NPCs cheat...Fix this. It doesn't add "difficulty", it's just patently unfair.

    @PaulTassi @mjHushpuppy Phil really dug a hole for Asha before he left. I wouldnt be surprised if Asha never wanted Halo, Forza 5 & 6, or Fable to come to the PS5. It was never her decision, but at the same time, if she takes them away she will face the backlash because they are already present in the PS Store. Blade will be a Console Exclusive, that much is kinda obvious. Sony has their super heroes and now XBOX has Blade, its only fitting. They said that Live service games will be multiplatform and everything else will be a "case by case" scenario.. this is why I believe that having The Elder Scrolls 6 on XBOX and PC alone, is probably a discussion being had... Now will that happen... Im leaning more towards "No". But if it happens, Im buying an XBOX. I have to play The Elder Scrolls 6 no matter what. I dont think its the platform, its the game. If The Elder Scrolls 6 isnt on Playstation, that wont stop me from getting it. To be honest, I would sell my Playstation to get an XBOX to play TES6 and I can still play GTA6 but not vice versa. And to me personally TES6 > GTA6.

    @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.

    @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

    @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?

    @Welfare_JBP Gears was never committed to PS5. No PS5 logo ever showed up. Sounds like Service games like COD, Elder Scrolls Online, Fallout 76 would be multiplatform. Things like Halo (next mainline game) Gears and others will be exclusive. Prob too costly to can 8 almost finished games
