    @Reply_Addict The problem is that starfield makes it really obvious. In Elder Scrolls or Fallout you get a loading screen when entering a house or city. With Starfield you get like 6 loading screens just by switching a planet. Starfield was just too much

    @JaeGamez This system would be cool in a gladiator game, super hero game, or the next Elder Scrolls. Anyone could challenge the patent or alter the bones enough to make it work. The problem with this was it was a HUGE undertaking, especially the voice acting. AI could make that easier.

    @JohnH0730 @dennistopia @thiccdotexe Ah the old appeal to majority comment. Millions of people believe fairies are real. See what Im getting at? The elder scrolls games have become quite shallow with every version that is a problem.

    @Opethftw @pcgamer Got you talking about it 9 years later. The dev team of 76 is a studio that works specifically on live service games. It’s not people in bgs that could be working on the next elder scrolls or fallout.

    @drggon52 @TESOnline I'm concerned about how much lag this can potentially generate.

  • TurleyDurden01
    Tim Turley (@TurleyDurden01) reported

    @DrunkRepub My problem, too. And I played the original Elder Scrolls: Arena and several of its sequels for way too long (mainly because you couldn't wander around killing things in such a wide world in most games). Somehow, by Skyrim it got old.

    @BethesdaStudios Well that's a bunch of word salad PR BS. It'll be almost 20 years since a proper Elder Scrolls, and nearly as much before the next Fallout. Microsoft should shut you down and give these franchises to a company that actually cares. You all left Fallout 4 broken for over a year.

    @TESOnline it’s ridiculous that when I’m in a dungeon, people keep pulling me to the final boss when I’m trying to do something for the quest and when pulled past the prompt or boss needed for the quest that it bugs it for me. Fix your game 😭

    Todd Howard sleeps well at night knowing Elder Scrolls VI can never be leaked since it will crash on launch without a community patch.

    @PurpleMNinja @Criminalsimpson Yeah, no problem. It was fun even if I don't do RPs often. An Elder Scrolls Steamed Hams RP? How does that work?

  • Lordofsparta
    Luminous Beings are We… (@Lordofsparta) reported

    @TESOnline Near unplayable. 3 hour wait to get into PvP zone to participate in the event. Soon as you try to fight someone you realize they’re using the armory glitch and are immortal. Full heavy armor with all buffs and this guy can cheat kill you in one second. ESO thinks this is fair. No

  • OM__Gaming
    OM Pilot (@OM__Gaming) reported

    Even this somehow makes The Elder Scrolls seem like a bit of an afterthought - it is their current project and yet it is the last thing mentioned. I just don’t get the disconnect between how successful the franchise is and how it’s treated by the company.

  • PuselSpielt
    Pusel (@PuselSpielt) reported

    @AgentOink You can have loading screens without necessarily breaking the immersion. Starfield did not achieved that and made the loading screens „problem“ more obvious than a Fallout or Elder Scrolls.

    @ShitpostRock Elder Scrolls 5 had this problem with most of it's "main" holds

  • wesleytypes
    Wesley ✨ (@wesleytypes) reported

    I love Creation Engine. Proprietary engines play a significant role in forming a game's identity and I would never wish that away. Bethesda is who they are in large part because of this engine. That said, to spend countless years and millions of dollars on a new game and NOT strive to break new ground or do something you haven't before feels like a waste. The Creation Engine hasn't shown a meaningful capacity to grow and change with modern gaming expectation and that's a problem. I still want Bethesda games to feel like Bethesda games, but if Creation Engine 3 doesn't massively impress and prove that it can deliver a truly modern gaming experience, it will be imperative that Bethesda make changes that I don't think they're willing to make. At this point, promising the future of The Elder Scrolls and Fallout on Creation Engine feels like a giant gamble.

    @AlexMindTricks @nuhre_ It’s a generational game ppl have been waiting to play for 10+ years with ridiculous hype. It’s going to make like a billion dollars bro. That doesn’t mean the industry can pretend they have GTA 6, not even Bethesda could sell Elder scrolls 6 for that much. It’s capitalism bro, supply and demand, GTA 6 is gonna be a live service game that is extremely popular for the next 2 decades. That doesn’t mean game devs are gonna start selling the new call of duty for $100, almost nobody would buy that **** for $100, but millions of people would buy GTA 6 for $500, let alone $100. It’s a product which is highly desired and therefore worth a **** ton, that’s capitalism, otherwise they’d sell it for less

    Look, I love the Elder Scrolls and Fallout. Have since I first booted up my Xbox to play Morrowind in 2002. But you guys needed a kick in the ***. I hate that all those employees got fired, but taking 20 years to release a game, and then another decade of no DLC or content for said game, and relying only on modders to fill in what you left out, is the most laziest and snobbiest **** you could have ever run for a company. And not telling people about games or projects coming up, being so tight lipped and superior, and holier than thou art. On a gaming engine that is already 40 years old and barely works at launch, and takes a year to fix the game. Bethesda needed a kick in the ***. And it was long overdue.

    @DanticsOfficial Could they fix it? Sure, but would people rather them work on the next Elder Scrolls or Fallout instead? I’m sure it’s possible to make a good Skyrim in space, but would they rather use Starfield as a platform to sell paid mods? Seems that way to me.

    @aaniVibeTheory Idk fallout new vegas if you can polish it a bit and fix bugs without ****** up what was there. Elder scrolls Morowind too... if you mean an upgraded revamp the true crime streets series. Dont kill my wallet though fo an already made polish up. Bought it once prior save my wallet
