  @sc0nesandc0ffee @extremedogeball What's unkind is Bethesda substituting live-service slop for the single player Fallout and Elder Scrolls games that the fans actually want. If I had a magic wand to fire every one of them in order to get the game that I want then I would.

  @sparhawk1221 @myrtogen @XBOX Has nothing to do with elder scrolls six people have been saying this for over 10 years and still don’t understand. And I hate live service games, but this is an MMO and they deserve to exist

  @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.

  @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.

  @stormfall33 The problem with releasing Elder Scrolls 6 is that it has to compete with your 12th release of Elder Scrolls 5

  @J_C_Lovecraft @memeslich there is a version you can buy on GoG that is compatible with most modern systems. also, the instruction booklet has a great recipe for banana bread. the ownership of the IP is now in microsoft's hands, i been joking for years they should get bethesda to take the IP over. they got fantasy (elder scrolls) and technological (fallout) so one that combines the two would fit well. only problem with that idea, its bethesda we're talking about lol.

  No body gives a **** about your ****** Elder Scrolls port. No disc. No buy. You continue to hurt every game you post by not addressing these issues. **** you and your shareholders.

  @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.

  @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...

  @BTV_Cast @SulyceGaming Xbox lost of sight if the customer a long time ago, tried to fight its way back when the customer moved on, bought up too many studios to bolster Gamepass, and are now floundering as a result while also under a corporation that has shifted into AI and is beginning to hold the brand to standards they are unable to achieve. I don’t blame the current head of Xbox, she was given this mess just a few months ago and now has to right the ship in what I’m sure feels like a very narrow window of time as compared to the amount of leniency Phil Spencer was given. The industry as a whole is sharing some of the problems Xbox has, but I think Xbox remains a wholly unique situation because they are a platform holder and own some of the largest IP in gaming with Minecraft, COD, Halo, WoW, Overwatch, Forza, Elder Scrolls, Fallout, and Doom, among others. Many if their issues are self inflicted, but if Xbox goes down, a significant portion of the industry goes down with it.

  @pasta_wheat @Paladin000Xbox @asha_shar I’d probably buy the game then. The same thing I did a decade ago for elder scrolls V. Gamepass is a nice a service but it’s unsustainable long term. Btw COD still is going to game pass. Just 1 year later.

  @TESOnline so instead of improving the daily login, you put a ******* battle pass. the grind is unreal. if wanted that much grinding i would go to a ********** and i hate strip clubs. your events have gone so lame is hilarious and the rewards are pathetic.

  @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.

  Roberto Fa Studios (@mrfarruggio) reported 34 minutes ago

  @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...

  @FodderTier @kiwitalkz There were an incredible amount of updates to their engine for Starfield. Its graphics are very underrated and only held back by a few lighting and LoD issues. Far from wasted time if these updates provide a better final product for Elder Scrolls and Fallout.

  @CGRuby_VT I always say a similar thing about The Elder Scrolls. They are poorly made games with great ideas. The fact that the first mods for them are massive bug fix patches and UI upgrades says a lot about how poorly made they are.

  “From hype to chaos 🎮🔥” @grok @TESOnline #ESO #ESO_JP #ESOFam “What’s happening with @TESOnline is a real shame, but it’s their own fault. I remember when I first started playing, I already had Morrowind, Summerset, Elsweyr, Greymoor, and Blackwood thanks to my father who bought them for me. Then came High Isle (2022) — I saved like crazy to get it. Necrom (2023) — I sold three Nintendo Switch games to afford it. And then my favorite arrived: Gold Road (2024), which I bought without any problems. I always looked forward with great joy to see what was coming each year. But then those damn developers changed everything: useless subclasses, they took away content, and once again kept patching to fix their own nonsense. In the end, it’s truly a pity.”

  @CursedTio @TESOnline DKs are so broken and over powered. They shouldn’t be able to do insane damage and tank. They clearly don’t play the game

  @Andy_VGC Part of the problem with Xbox is they are too hands off and just let devs make whatever they want, which doesn't always result in success. Obsidian should be doing Fallout and Elder Scrolls spinoffs while Bethesda do the mainline games.

  Whether the game was good or bad, very much a not so good entry into elder scrolls franchise, theres a serious problem of companies stripping funds and resources from one game to another while the game suffers bad, just straight milking the fanbase for bare minimum in return

• 
  Ash (@Ashleyscowcroft) reported 51 minutes ago

  @UnkWerks @RinoTheBouncer Except it's not. It's a single player game that happens to include a multiplayer mode. A live service game is something like Destiny, The Elder Scrolls Online or Fallout 76. They tried to make Halo CE exclusive but couldn't because of various contracts already in place.

  @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

  If @Xbox and @asha_shar are serious about pushing their core IP's to the max potential then there are several things that need to be addressed: 1. Studio dedicated to Remakes/Remasters - There are too many games that could use the Oblivion treatment that can do numbers. Fallout 3/Fallout New Vegas/Elder Scrolls Daggerfall/Morrowind 2. Studio dedicated to breathing new life into the mascot era IP's - Banjo and Kazooie/Battletoads/Crash Bandicoot/Blinx/Conker 3. Studio dedicated to a crossover platform - HaloxDoom/SOTxMinecraft 4. New categories in older IP's - Halo:Horror/Gears Tactics 2
