Jellal Alaric (@JellalVT) reported@Tenkay23 @IdleSloth84_ I think SOD3 is a “live service” title. And I think that Senua may be a smaller project that they don’t see selling consoles. It’s all speculation, but BIG SP games is what I’m thinking. Gears, Halo and fable (going forward), Elder Scrolls, Fallout, etc

BRAP (@BRAP_Podcast) reported@JamieOffline I'm not arguing that Minecraft, Call of Duty, Halo, and Elder Scrolls are identical products that should all follow the exact same distribution strategy. The issue is that Xbox has publicly tied its strategy to strengthening the value of Xbox hardware, validating long-term fan investment, and rebuilding platform identity. Those goals generally benefit from clarity and predictability. If exclusivity is determined on a "case by case basis", consumers are left wondering which games actually require an Xbox and which don't. That uncertainty can weaken the very hardware desirability Xbox says it wants to create. Sure, Microsoft's size, portfolio diversity, and ownership of multiple publishers explain why decisions may be made differently. But they don't necessarily explain how a case by case approach supports the stated goal of making Xbox hardware more compelling to consumers. So I think the question isn't whether Microsoft has reasons to evaluate games differently. The question is whether that approach aligns with the outcomes they're saying they want to achieve.

Curse (@Cursemark143) reported@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

mickal9090 (@mickal9090) reported@Asif_not_here @Grummz Fallout 76 might be in trouble but they have a lot to do on elder scrolls online. So they have SOME time to buy themselves. Iirc 76 doesn't have a lot of ppl playing but I might be wrong
-
Carbon_GT (@Carbon_GT) reported@xMBGx Does “Fallout” and “Elder Scrolls” include the live service version of the games like Fallout 76 and Elder Scrolls Online
-
Jonas (@GuitaristOnBass) reported@TESOnline @LordBalvin Don't take this the wrong way, but perhaps it would be better for XBOX to bulk the live service updates into a pre-show or something. It creates a weird dynamic in the showcase to mix them with new titles, not creating the best reactions in viewers— which you don't want either.
-
Vector (@PrasVector) reported@InternetH0F Finally. Been waiting forever for new Elder Scrolls news. Hope they actually deliver this time and don't rush it out broken.
-
Radi Main (@MainRadi) reported@BethesdaSupport @TESOnline hellooo bethesda are you alive or what??? FO76 server not responding with error 470 please fix it it's been weeks
-
Pixels & Polygons (@PixelsnPolyg0ns) reported@Grummz Why is he sharing insider rumours in one message, but then acting like he is too principled to report on something that wasn't public in another? The truth is, if he knew that everyone not working on Fallout or The Elder Scrolls was at-risk, then we would have reported that too.
-
Chud Dwyer (@Jolteoff) reported@Wario64 Spencer's "let the devs do what they want" strategy dug them in such a deep hole. Years of nothing but live-service updates from Halo, SoT, Elder Scrolls, and Fallout. Early stages of development for the Cuphead sequel when the series is 9 years old. It's insane
-
Octopus (@Fred420170) reported@djkkyle @orielkiller @shinobi602 I don’t live on Twitter, FMS was broken at launch, same with halo infinite, starfield did well, the rest are good but not system sellers like gears, next mainline balo, elder scrolls 6 etc.
-
Dannydangersenpai (@dannyboywood1) reported@TESOnline Why can't I sign in, I apparently already downloaded everything
-
Ryo (@RyTheSciFiGuy) reported@TESOnline Ok Werewolves are done. Now plz fix Vamps so they aren't so crap to play. 1st it shouldn't be -100 health regen at stage 4 it should be +200% at stage 4, you should be able to feed at any time including during a battle not just when sneaking. & xp needs 2b easier to get.

Gilbeezyskit ✝️🇺🇸 (@Gilbeezyskit93) reported@nuhre_ There are a lot of veteran game devs who demand high salaries and many AAA studios are built in expensive cities to attract talent, requiring higher salaries all around. All of this is multiplied by games taking 7 years now instead of 18 months (the real problem right now). I get wanting to avoid insane Halo 2 levels of crunch, but there has to be a middle ground. KOTOR 2 was made in 14 months. Double that to give more breathing room and you still have a high quality game in less than 3 years. I mean seriously, Elder Scrolls 6 could have been Skyrim with slightly better graphics and a new setting. We should be waiting for ES9 right now. Instead it’s been 15 years…. TLDR: AAA game dev is collapsing because of ridiculous dev times that cause salaries per game to become completely unsustainable.
-
Marielle Redclaw (@MarieleRedclaw) reported@NikTek They do one at a time The thinking among the fans for a long time is that they really need to split into separate teams independently handling Elder Scrolls, Fallout and now Starfield. Maybe a fourth team who does nothing but fix bugs and do feature updates to the Creation Engine.
-
Streaker (@PrimalNudist) reported@DarkEnzo0309 In the thread it says basically anyone who is not working on Elder Scrolls or Fallout is out. I want to see a Wolfenstein 3 too. But I have a feeling that we wont.
-
Foxhound_N10 (@Foxhound_N10) reported@TESOnline Also, @TESOnline, one thing I’d like to see change for the future. There's one huge problem in Grayhost Cyrodill, and it dulls the game. NOBODY WANTS TO DIE, and I'm not talking about coordinated ball groups; I'm talking about other solo players where eight people are chasing them, and they can not only wipe all of them but heal through everything. I'm a solo and a fight die repeat, no biggie. But the endless chases where one person can stop play so we can’t move on to something new are annoying. If they are good to 1 v 3, fine, but NOT entire armies for one person. Make some bunker buster sets and mythics, please and thanks :)
-
goregram (@goregram) reported@TESOnline new mythic still broken for pvp an i cant even go to other CP campaigns to play with friend's since its alliance locked an you got rid of the rest. well not paying for eso plus for this trash. guess time to find another game. any suggestions?
-
DioDiablo (@DioDiablo702) reported@foambreaker @TESOnline Consolidating systems overtime is a very common practice for games that have been in service for 7+ years. Over time some systems become outdated and need a refresh. I'm actually happy ZOS is taking the time to fix up old/outdated systems to keep things relevant.
-
Foxhound_N10 (@Foxhound_N10) reported@XBOXGamePass @TESOnline And fix Cyro, dammit. We need bunker buster sets for troll solos who don't die, run away, and take 20 people to take down; it stops all play. Saying this as a solo who dies with honor fighting and gives gg’s. @TESOnline Nightblade needs more Penetration with above-and-beyond.
-
NickyNick (@XRedshadowsX) reported@aiiygatorz A game im still upset about... I think they realized that their live service game Elder Scrolls Online is more profitable than any other game they could ever produce. Which is why ESO is so ****** up.. lmao
-
FlyBy14 (@FlyBy1444) reported@TESOnline My guild and I think you need to fix the glitches that you have in the game already instead of adding more game. Maybe its time to clean things up plz??
-
cjBloodwyn (@Chris_J_Harding) reported@SpeedGod_CDN @PaulTassi Imagine they made these franchises exclusive in the future: Elder Scrolls Fallout Skylanders Crash Bandicoot Guitar Hero Tony Hawk DOOM Wolfenstein Blade Spyro Of course there are others, but that would make a hell of a statement.
-
Curse (@Cursemark143) reported@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.

-
🇵🇷 (@Zerminator_) reported4. EXCLUSIVITY TALK (PART 1): Xbox-Original single-player franchises (Halo, Forza, Gears, Fable) stay exclusive while Xbox-acquired franchises and multiplayer games (Elder Scrolls, COD, Minecraft, Sea of Thieves, Crash) remain multi-platform. Don't care. Talk to the wall. (4/?)
-
TheHoneyG (@Thehoneyg3) reported@TatataToddC @charlieINTEL @TheVerge unfortunately CoD, Candy Crush, Forza, Elder Scrolls Online, Fallout76, Sea of Thieves, Minecraft, Diablo, Overwatch, WoW, Crash n Spyro make them tons of profit.. its the other bullshit: Project Blackbird 400m wasted Perfect dark 200m Everwild 150m redfall 70m hellblade2 80m
-
Ash (@Ashleyscowcroft) reported@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.
-
RJ Kelly (@rjkelly13) reportedI was thinking about this earlier. Bethesda was so enormous that they had their own stage show dropping games left and right. Now it's just live service Fallout 76 and Elder Scrolls Online and Doom stuff. What a dropoff.
-
K.D. (@choco_celt) reported@BethesdaSupport @TESOnline What extra things got broken on the consoles this time?
