    @CodyCoo15122985 @Swurv__ Tainted grail is one thing but if you think that the witcher of all franchises satiates the fix left by the elder scrolls then I seriously can't fathom what you like about the games to begin with, they're literally polar opposites nothing alike in the slightest

    @bethesda the problem about Starfield fallout and elder scrolls is every time they update one they break the game so the gamers jump to another Bethesda game until they update and break that game. I caught the Bethesda triangle.

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

    @Swurv__ Crimson Desert isn't an Elder Scrolls killer but it's showing us what could... People say Skyrim holds up but I can't play it again without a few thousand mods, Lorerim/Nolvus completely revamp the game to a modern standard and I can't go back to vanilla. I enjoyed it in it's time but it's dead for anyone that's already been there done that... let's be honest. Bethesda has nothing to worry about on sales and player numbers on release day but they should be worried about retention. I can't play Starfield it's the same old jank it just looks a little better but in a few years once Bethesda tosses it aside and modders do their magic I'll probably put a thousand hours more on it. I'll pre order it the morning of release and wait a couple weeks before the refund deadline to play it, see if Bethesda has improved or not because I can't do another plain three slash bethesda game, I just can't it's 30 years old. It took them until starfield just to figure out ladders... LADDERS meanwhile FO4 modders made functional ladders in their engine they said couldn't do it lol that should be telling us something. The lore will save it, the lore is what most of us care about, we live with the bethesda jank but we shouldn't have to. They also forced their lore writer out, that's a problem...

    @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.

    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…

    The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered by publisher Bethesda Softworks has not received a formal PC patch since Update 1.2 was released in July 2025. Frame rates dropping and traversal stuttering are still a problem for players.

    @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?

    @GamewithDave A year ago, I would've said Elder Scrolls: Oblivion, but now I'd say Lunar: Dragon Song. If they could fix the game's infamously godawful gameplay, I'd give it a chance.

    @pizzamoney83 @VulpeculaLunae @TESOnline they have too much instance. that the problems. zenimax really overestimate the number of people who play that game. too many time i end up in a 12 player group where the half is in a different night market. we must scream to them to travel to us otherwise they can't find us lol

    This proves HOW FOOLISH you are You have given MS/Xbox license to REMOVE 1st party games using the EXCUSE of cost ratio to XGP users Will Elder Scrolls 6 be in XGP? Maybe the cost of the game is too much per MS You fools have made a mess of a great service all becuz of

    @GameOnJesse @DestinLegarie COD will be the first then Elder Scrolls, followed by the next Halo, Gears, etc. Slippery Slope. Everyone saying reduce the price don’t even realize every streaming service has gone up or had features such as 4K streaming.

  • BigJK123123
    Josh (@BigJK123123) reported

    @ZephhyLeo @CultClassicCage Yet the game still had plenty of bugs, glitches & issues, some of which were present in their 2002 Elder Scrolls game. "it was less glitchy than Fallout 4" It bloody should be, that game notoriously had performance issues, and technical flaws even found in the recent re-release.

    @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...

    @luscielia Elder scrolls 6… I’ve been waiting 15 years for this game and I would crawl over broken glass just to meet the man who was lucky enough to sell his soul for the elder scrolls 6

    @WoodsMonk @TESOnline Only problem is if we got them to change it for Solo players while this season is active, would they give us back the days we missed, or just say sod you. :/

    @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.

    @DocHollidayRezd @TESOnline I would try the FTC because there contract is unevenly inforced if not at all in some cases. An I can't have a contract saying mantance included an not fix the pipes when the burst but kick you out for complaining about me not fixing the pipes

  • da_asmodai
    Nicholas Hanson (@da_asmodai) reported

    I have LOTS of ideas but probably either an Elder Scrolls style open world game with procedural terrain and dungeon generaition, AI agent NPCs so their schedules were more dynamic and they had unlimited voiced dialog options. Or a MMO that fixes all the things I think are broken in them.

    @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.
