    @TESOnline Who the hell still plays this dry *** game bro? Your game is filled with greed, overly long quests, poor rewards, limited loot pool of items, lacking polish and tweaks and still got **** making player experience horrible that you refuse to fix despite your game going dry

    @Amazing_ParaBoy first, the nemesis system was never patented from elder scrolls. you’re thinking of middle-earth. second, “blueprint” is used in a colloquial sense to refer to the bare-bones idea of something. there isnt any issue with how people are using it

    @Draven_X_23 @Dexerto You really think Elder Scrolls 6 is going to be good after Fallout 76, Starfield, and the Oblivion remaster which is still broken?

    @TESOnline Games more broken then my Exs relationship with her dad

    @Swurv__ Nah. They f’d up with starfield and posting the teaser to elder scrolls when they never started work on it just to appease their investors. They’ve had years to fix starfield but still obviously haven’t.

    @Johnnymetal80 @Septic_Sauce The anticipation for the follow-up to Skyrim is a money maker approaching GTA. A lot more upfront sales will be lost with Elder Scrolls 6, so with this move I no longer have confidence in Game Pass as a service. It was about guarantees, no doubt, and that's now gone.

    @ykaiketsu Yup. Had dope leveling system that was even used in the elder scrolls. Actually had characters and interesting world. The issue is the grind but just adjusting some figures make it great

    @finnoreokastro Crunch is still a problem btw if you know anything about video game devs. Crunching for a company that will fire them after the game finishes. Elder scrolls 6 got announced in 2018 btw

  • ThunderBrush

    @DUSKdev I have no insight on this particular issue but I was the 7th or so artist hired for Elder Scrolls online back when ZOS was considered a sister studio to Bethesda and their company policies were frankly...absurd. Back then working in concept art I sketched everything on pencil/paper and had requested a basic scanner for my desk for months, got fed up and decided to bring in my own only to walk into work the next day to see my entire desk being packed up by IT as they were reading paperwork to fire me for breaking employee-code, thankfully my lead at the time saved my ***. Bethesda is a company/studio that's ran by lawyers and very overzealous leadership first and foremost so something this petty doesn't strike me out of the realm of possibility. I was present for a few town halls when New Vegas was in development and it was fairly palpable that Bethesda main had little love for the New Vegas project.

    @chaosprimeZ I'd rather them not announce something they are not working on. Bethesda announcing Elder Scrolls 6 too early was a huge mistake. Doing this for Destiny 3 would be no different.

    @playstationyesr @sassykitten666 That will fix it because PC and PlayStation people won't get games like elder scrolls 6 etc that'll make em buy xbox

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline It seems North America PS also is having issues whit favor factions and night market.... Any hope for solution or it is too early in the morning to ask?

  • NoseOfDeath
    Nose | 🎮 Final Fantasy XV (@NoseOfDeath) reported

    Nope. Skyrim is my first and only Elder Scrolls game and I played it back when it first released on Xbox 360. I wasn't familiar with RPG's either at the time with only Demons Souls and Mass Effect the games I played previously. Took a second but I got through it with no issues.

    @JeffsawHomes @IGN All while removing CoD, the biggest game in the service, setting a 1 year window for it's release, which is pointless for a mostly online game that does yearly releases. This also sets a precedent for other large games to not be included Day 1. Elder Scrolls VI, Halo 7, E-Day?

  • Macy1517
    Falloutfan3000 (@Macy1517) reported

    @RazorwireRPG Elder scrolls fans don’t **** about ESO. It’s a live service game that isn’t an actual canon game. Just like 76. It’s just “content”.

  • CreepPhone
    V E R S A Y C E (@CreepPhone) reported

    @TESOnline Of ALL the Vengeance campaigns I hit a giant lag spike and got booted from the entire game during the recent battle at Chal, it's this one, the one where you messed with AOEs.

    Starting to realise I like a weird f*cking assortment of stuff Space king, outsider trading, greetrunners, wh40k, mass effect, lord of the rings, glitch shows, monkey wrench, helluverse sorta, mashle, demon slayer, star wars, star trek, elder scrolls etc

  • GetFitWithJared
    Jared Shapiro (@GetFitWithJared) reported

    @Xbox_SUPERFAN The thing with COD versus other first party games is they have 3 studios working full speed to crank out a $400+ million AAA game annually. Halo isn't doing that. Elder Scrolls isn't doing that. Forza isn't doing that. Those games on Day 1 are are all big value adds for Game Pass. If they remove them, they're going to see massive churn. I'm assuming behind the scenes they either didn't see a big enough bump in subscribers for COD or they saw a lot of people sub for a month or two, only play COD, then bounce. If that's the case, and you have polls all over the internet saying drop COD and make it cheaper, then I could see the business sense there. It doesn't make sense to risk subs and cut other first party games from the service, but there's always a chance the economics change

    @MedeirosDa61624 @TESOnline Exactly, it’s your experience. Unfortunately it’s not everyone’s experience. It doesn’t take much to see all the forum, reddit, facebook posts and most importantly what you hear in your community. It’s a growing issue across servers but I’m sure some are worse than others.

  • ShotYourEyeOut

    @TESOnline I’ve done so many skirmishes and none are counting toward the quest. Fix your game please.

    @RyanStrifePlays @TESOnline Yes 2 team BG was a design error. 8 vs 8 was fun but all the others modes can disappear forever as an error.

    @TESOnline Wow, I thought people were being too hard on this, but they were right. Solo Veteran Dungeon: No problem. Solo one mob in Night Market: F#ck No!

    @larptillidie @summergamefest The only game Bethesda is working on right now is elder scrolls. 6. They're not working on fallout 5 for many, many years.

  • Foxhound_N10
    Foxhound_N10 (@Foxhound_N10) reported

    @TESOnline It's so fun, I haven't been doing anything else. The only two things I see we need are more loot from ALL trials to drop randomly, and please fix the quests/arrows that seem to disappear with no sketch book to draw in, for example. The free house, once unlocked, is awesome!!

    @Jetifyed2077 The problem with the Elder Scrolls having classes was the whole "Play how you like" thing. If they had done DnD style rules, the Class system would have worked. But as it is...

    @joseagu59410157 @TESOnline If it's not happening in mass, on a predictable basis, then chances are, it's something about your system that is causing the problem.
