    @chaosprimeZ Imagine what Fallout, Elder Scrolls and eventually CoD could do for hardware sales if they were console exclusives. Exclusives were never the problem, it’s that Xbox didn’t have the right exclusives. Now they do, and they’ve gone multiplat!

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

    @TESOnline The NM is 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!!

    @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.

    @pizzamoney83 @TESOnline Where in night market you need to be elite player? :) difficulty there mid between vet dungeons and vet trials. Any average group can do this. There's zero new mechanics - a bit reworked old bosses, without any new mechanics. Problem there - excessive grind. It just boring.

    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.

    @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?

    @BerdlyGuy @fambramb Uhm? what? Sweet rolls are kind of an iconic food in elder scrolls even then I barely hear them still, NOW DELTARUNE can't stop making ******* spamton jokes thats the big issue here

    @TheGamingLedger I mean she is in a very tough position. Obviously no one is expecting games like Minecraft, Call of Duty, Elder Scrolls Online, Overwatch, World of Warcraft, Candy Crush etc to be exclusive to Xbox. All Xbox fans want is some games to be exclusive. Fable should've never been ported to playstation at all. You have an argument with Halo, Gears and Forza because those are live service games. I dont expect the Forza, Sea of thieves franchise to ever be exclusive to Xbox again. If they want to port Halo mutliplayer they should do along with Gears. However, Halo Combat evolve and Gears E day campaign should've never been ported to Playstation. If none of "Xbox tentpole titles" are exclusive anymore I hope they have a strategy to make new Xbox mascots to replace them in the new era of XBOX. Thats the least they can do to appease fans in my opinion

    Trevor Rieger (@trevorriegerxxx) reported

    The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Anniversary Edition developed by Bethesda Game Studios for the Nintendo Switch 2 port added improvements with an update 1.2 in February 2026 such as a new 60 FPS mode, a stable 30 FPS mode, and reduced input lag but it still costs $60 for a 15 year old game.

    @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?

  • RobertKafadar
    Kristijan Lujanovic (@RobertKafadar) reported

    @WolfheartFPS @KJP_Plays Thank you for saying this. I even talked to the devs about it. I know I am used to from software games but still Witcher 3 is not using all it's mechanics to create truly challenging hard difficulty. But combat is their common problem like Elder scrolls series

  • 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”.

  • C02oblivious
    DeadStarEffect(commisions open) (@C02oblivious) reported

    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

  • MarkMannX
    Mark (@MarkMannX) reported

    @Ylliaster @temp_anon1 Black Myth Wukong, Borderlands 4, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered, Mindseye, and some more. Honestly, I think the problems with UE5 are mostly over hated since people don't upgrade hardware, but the fact is that these bad ports absolutely exist and there are absolutely diminishing returns.

  • SW3EN
    Mars (@SW3EN) reported

    @lohipuikko @pssucks80155 @Nick_Marseil Timed exclusives solves this problem IMO. Gears E-Day? 12 month Xbox Exclusive. Fable? 12 month Xbox Exclusive. Fallout 5 & Elder Scrolls 6? 12 months only on Xbox/PC. You get my drift

  • JellalVT
    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

  • The_CrapGamer
    The Crapgamer (@The_CrapGamer) reported

    @Welfare_JBP Gears was never committed to PS5. No PS5 logo ever showed up. Sounds like Service games like COD, Elder Scrolls Online, Fallout 76 would be multiplatform. Things like Halo (next mainline game) Gears and others will be exclusive. Prob too costly to can 8 almost finished games

  • Strikxie

    @burcewynes @TESOnline by your mmo choices it seems you have no problem paying sub, so yes.

  • Asmoden3
    Silaf (@Asmoden3) reported

    @LegendSince1992 @TESOnline Nope. i'm 3600cp and have all master stations. Master stations is not a problem but if you don't actively grind cp in Black Rose Prison it will take you 10 years.

  • omnijoel_
    omnijoel (@omnijoel_) reported

    @GameRant It will suck for a long time. Do I think there is a world where D3 happens, D2 continues? Yeah, but the mountains would have to move... D2 needs a lot of love to fix and that might just be the issue. (Eververse is also important in that topic... (look at elder scrolls Online))

  • arthurianmaiden
    Mordred (@arthurianmaiden) reported

    @AlmsiviSimp that is because you have not played enderal. Once you play that, nothing elder scrolls will give the same fix

  • MasMenno
    MasMenno (@MasMenno) reported

    @Jorden1506 The only part where it could be lackluster is if you go by exclusives. The overall output of the studios has been great. Over 10 live-service games with constant updates; Diablo 4, Overwatch, Minecraft and Elder Scrolls Online are currently peaking in players. 1/2

  • Minmatar0
    Hopelessly Addicted Tarnished (@Minmatar0) reported

    @JezCorden idk MS has been doing well on PC. lots of their games sell. PC gamepass subs are quite high and many of their service games like Sea of Thieves, Elder scrolls online, Grounded etc pull in way more than sonys gaas games on PC. so what would exclusivity accomplish?

    @TESOnline the elder scrolls online forum notifications and mail icon are invisible how many more have that issue? i tested disabling browser extensions, no use still invisible

  • IndependentFur
    🥓IndependentlyModerate🥓 (@IndependentFur) reported

    @GFoxlore @ClaireMax It's really not, especially depending on when the universe technically would be placed in the RL context. Most likely of it was Elder Scrolls for example, that issue never comes because it's not important to the plot.

  • ReddersTV
    Redders (@ReddersTV) reported

    @lrbrazao @asha_shar They've gone the Live Service route, they'll milk that **** for all it's worth. You won't be seeing a new Fallout or Elder Scrolls any time soon, when they can keep milking you on DLCs and Microtransactions.

  • Asmoden3
    Silaf (@Asmoden3) reported

    @TESOnline The problem is that after reaching 10000 favors you have no reason to interact with the night market anymore.

  • bigmountking
    Jolder (@bigmountking) reported

    @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

  • Foxhound_N10
    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 :)
