    @TESOnline This is all great, but can you fix control layout B? You don't jump until you Release the thumbstick. Imagine if you didn't jump until you released the face button. It's awful and has been broken for years now.

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Hello! My ticket #260419-002356 has been stuck for 3 days. I can't access my new Gold Road purchase due to a Steam linking error. I've provided all the proof in the ticket. Please help me get into the game! #ESO #ElderScrollsOnline

    @LeonardFrom719 @Burnvolver @humorMEplzz How old are you to talk like you are 5, do you speak to your father and mother that way? Don’t call her a *****? Grow up and stop insulting people just because you feel like it. There are many examples of utterly broken old games on release, like the old elder scrolls, dwarf fortress, super Mario for Nintendo 64, Spyro etc etc

    @ApollosMission Stardew Valley, Elder Scrolls, Resident Evil, and the Arkham Games! Don’t need live service to be pleased

    @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

    @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.

    @TESOnline Please don't neglect solo players. Last golden pursuit made it hard to finish solo, something that wasnt an issue before recently. I am a caretaker of elderly parents I don't get to team up & play in groups often because of this.

  • Senninsage
    SenjutsuSage (@Senninsage) reported

    @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.

    @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

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Crossplay or not we pay for a service and this maintenance means most people can’t play today

  • Zen_Darius
    Zendarius (@Zen_Darius) reported

    @Asmoden3 @TESOnline It's the replacement for daily/weekly endeavor seals and probably some of the missing daily login rewards

  • LightShadowOnyx

    @Nick101Gaming you really think fable, gears, halo would get these sales without playstation? How about elder scrolls fallout doom state of decay spyro crash bandicoot

  • Nethilez
    Nethilez (@Nethilez) reported

    @Xylus19 @Dee_Batch @klobrille I see no issue either but that’s the logic. Elder Scrolls became multi platform so I understand if future iterations are as well. As for Sony tactics, Square Enix is backing off because it’s not profitable for them. But it’s more about expectations for each 1st party studio 1/2

    @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

    @TuryValdez @DuneAwakening I know what you’re talking about. I had the same issue with Elder scrolls online. The camera and the character model not in sync just hurts my head

    @xonebros Is it in a vacuum or does the Elder Scrolls have a Crimson Desert problem. Pick one.

  • dreamsleever
    The Dreamsgon (@dreamsleever) reported

    @brockpierson Elder Scrolls Online, Skyrim or Morrowind or Oblivion, Mass Effect Legendary, Witcher 3, or Cyberpunk 2077. The issue with doing it 12 hours a day if an MMO would be downtime due to maintenance!

    What’s the point in playing Elder Scrolls Online if the dungeon queue is going to take almost an hour?! Can’t even do daily anymore because it’s super annoying! @BethesdaSupport fix your crap please…

    @LilithLovett Current Triple A meta is multiplayer shooters with live service and ranking systems, unfortunately. Elder Scrolls 6 is on hold till Todd figures out how to make it a multiplayer shooter. Let's hope he learns from Fallout 76.

    @xonebros The only problem Bethesda has with Elder Scrolls VI is Bethesda, they are their own worst enemies

  • GJ_Doggy

    @MosesGames @TESOnline Thats a pretty crappy problem. I think the quest was called Those who would rule. If its not already in your journal and not in the crown store under quest starters possible might be bugged. Maybe id try a differnt device, like a second pc. Maybe missing a file

  • WazzupR2012

    @ZikadaPrime Pulling PlayStation and Switch ports of Minecraft, Overwatch, Elder Scrolls and Call of Duty among others out of service would be able to help Xbox.

    @TESOnline Please fix the issues with night market instances. Skirmishes are active but everyone I go to one 1 out of 5 times there not a single soul even though the group finder is full of them. I’m a solo player that don’t like to group. Am I SOL?

    @MrCraneGames @Pirat_Nation Ah, so a Cyberpunk 2077 style reinvention. That might help, but the problem is that they're behind schedule for Elder Scrolls 6 and Fallout 5. It's kind of a Catch-22 situation for them. Personally, I wish they'd just hand over Fallout 5 to another studio to clear their schedule

  • The_Socko
    𝕊𝕠𝕔𝕜𝕠 🧦 🎮 (@The_Socko) reported

    @foxygames_uk Ok, make any new Doom, Elder Scrolls, Fable, Call of Duty, Diablo, Tony Hawk, Overwatch, Hellblade, State of Decay, Fallout, Sea of Thieves, Wolfenstein, Outer Worlds, Grounded, Dishonored, Quake and Crash games Xbox exclusive then. Would that make you happier? 🫤🙄

    Corvus (Taylor's Version) 🏳️‍⚧️ (@LegateCorvus) reported

    @Swurv__ That's the main problem. Bethesda perfectly knows that they could sell a pack of **** branded "elder scrolls 6" people would buy it without thinking. That's what they do for 10 years now.
