  @TESOnline I was right to have brought a character with Shadowy Disguise in, since I too had to deal with the ghost town problem one person mentioned here.

  @DetectiveSeeds Don't have to be a "detective" to tell that CoD is just the start and future big games like Elder scrolls etc will also be absent from GP day one. Xbox will copy ps plus where big games join the service 6-12 months later 🤷🏻

  @TESOnline @spantifical When are you going to fix all the bugs in the game? Abilities don't work the first time, so I have to double tap it, trials are laggy, crown store stole my crowns twice I started a ticket awhile back and heard nothing. So wtf are we paying for?

  @TESOnline Of ALL the Vengeance campaigns I hit a giant lag spike and got booted from the entire game during the recent battle at Chal, it's this one, the one where you messed with AOEs.

  Ron Paul🇺🇲 (@alienteslax) reported 9 minutes ago

  @TESOnline It's laggy as it is most of the time you have to double tap for the abilities to work, sometimes triple tap and you wanna add a cross play? People are just gonna leave, I'm on console and every time I'm doing a trial or even a dungeon the lag is unreal. I'm on fiber btw.

  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.

  @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

  @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. :/

  @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...

  @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?

  @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

  @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? 🫤🙄

  @larptillidie @summergamefest The only game Bethesda is working on right now is elder scrolls. 6. They're not working on fallout 5 for many, many years.

  @TESOnline It's 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!!

  Jared Shapiro (@GetFitWithJared) reported 35 minutes ago

  @Xbox_SUPERFAN The thing with COD versus other first party games is they have 3 studios working full speed to crank out a $400+ million AAA game annually. Halo isn't doing that. Elder Scrolls isn't doing that. Forza isn't doing that. Those games on Day 1 are are all big value adds for Game Pass. If they remove them, they're going to see massive churn. I'm assuming behind the scenes they either didn't see a big enough bump in subscribers for COD or they saw a lot of people sub for a month or two, only play COD, then bounce. If that's the case, and you have polls all over the internet saying drop COD and make it cheaper, then I could see the business sense there. It doesn't make sense to risk subs and cut other first party games from the service, but there's always a chance the economics change

  K' the Barbarian (@KtheBarbar46169) reported 37 minutes ago

  @JeffsawHomes @IGN All while removing CoD, the biggest game in the service, setting a 1 year window for it's release, which is pointless for a mostly online game that does yearly releases. This also sets a precedent for other large games to not be included Day 1. Elder Scrolls VI, Halo 7, E-Day?

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

  @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?

  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.

  @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.

  @RinoTheBouncer Not a problem since I'm basically the one person on the planet that's NOT hyped for GTA6. For me, Elder Scrolls 6 is the game I have the most hype for. It's my favorite game series and has been since Morrowind.

  the elder scrolls has a scope and scale problem that makes tamriel feel really underwhelming the scope is too wide and the scale is too small
