    "Elder Scrolls 6 has big competition-" "New game will destroy TES6-" "Fans of TES won't need TES6 with this new game-" No, the problem is that there is no replacement or competition for it. Do you think we are playing TES for its unrivaled quality?? No. We are mentally ill.

    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.

    Ngl, the part i miss most about being a technician is the problem solving. Like I'd have both earbuds in listening to elder scrolls lore for hours straight while seeing what my retarded coworkers ****** up (usually hooking the waterlines backwards or the power(fire hazard)

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

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

    @TESOnline Games more broken then my Exs relationship with her dad

    @TESOnline PvP AND night market? Wow, feeling spoiled with all of that non-content garbage. PvP is dead, no matter how many events you fail to launch, and the Night Market is ****** TOXIC for solo players, meaning you can't touch it if you have social anxiety issues. Keep your events.

    @klobrille Key is, you have to have exclusive games people want to play. That's been the problem with Xbox for over a decade. I think the only game they could make exclusive that would really move the needle is Elder Scrolls 6. And I doubt they would have the stones to do that.

  • ThunderBrush

    @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.

    @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))

    @Swurv__ Nah. They f’d up with starfield and posting the teaser to elder scrolls when they never started work on it just to appease their investors. They’ve had years to fix starfield but still obviously haven’t.

    @BethesdaMag Dawnwalker. Second place goes to Elder Scrolls, because the quicker we get that game released, the quicker modders can fix it

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline 10+ yrs. BG/Cyro servers has been absolutely atrocious on PC/NA! for that 10+ yrs we have asked for a fix to the lag and in some cases Full on freeze for a good 15-20sec. Instead of adding content to these servers how bout we actually fix it(Maintenance)

  • matobruf_rm

    @SSiddiqui146 It's no coincidence that those things came packaged with the vapid and generic art direction of the remake. The elder scrolls 4 remake has identical issues

  • timburplays
    Timbur (@timburplays) reported

    @chaosprimeZ I'd rather them not announce something they are not working on. Bethesda announcing Elder Scrolls 6 too early was a huge mistake. Doing this for Destiny 3 would be no different.

    @StarfieldGame Uninstalled again. Sick to death of Bathesda bringing out DLCs before fixing **** that is broken. I swear you better not **** elder scrolls up this much

    @TESOnline Night market of death why is the loot trash and why is it still bugged are u guys really lazy on fixing your game lol or is it cheap fix your trash mode plz 6 moths subs down the drain and season pass is also trash just let u know charging people season pass with eso plus lol

  • Lordofsparta
    Luminous Beings are We… (@Lordofsparta) reported

    @tphill779 @TESOnline Yea same here. Ran most of the dailies but not the boss quests there wasn’t enough folks around to get a group. Had no issues on a vamp nb with high regen sneaking around for the other quests

  • 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”.

  • Granbul1
    Granbul (@Granbul1) reported

    @AndresRestart I think the problem with the Star Fox designs is that certain angles and poses make them look really bad. It's like making an Elder Scrolls character who looks great from the front, but then you do the side profile and see that you really ****** up.

  • GJ_Doggy
    💥 Garry 💥 (@GJ_Doggy) reported

    @TESOnline I noticed the xbox play anywhere win 10 version of eso doesnt allow me to communicate with anyone. Any fix for this? No text or voice chats are possible or show up at all from game or guilds.

    @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!

  • DarkJaysonVR
    Darkjayson (@DarkJaysonVR) reported

    @LostMemeArchive Bethesda had no issue with Mojang naming their game Scrolls they objected to the trademark they tried to file which would have conflicted with their elder scrolls games and every other game that used the word scrolls in it.

  • Gamer_Girl_Nowa

    We gotta beat elder scrolls YouTubers with the mace of molag bal for spewing the **** that oblivion leveling is bad and remaster fixed it when the issue is the unique pool is still level scaled horribly and enemy pool of levels still is just reach a breakpoint and its all ogres

  • 117_GuiltySpark
    117 (@117_GuiltySpark) reported

    @yrulaughing418 @RayKump That’s still part of the issue. It’s why the next Elder Scrolls was announced 8 years ago before taking a backseat to Starfield. Giant game companies can’t dev more than one thing at a time, they’ve don’t have that ability any more apparently.

  • Darellano344205
    Darellano (@Darellano344205) reported

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline What is the point of performing such lengthy server maintenance when you fail to ban players who use hacks to glitch through the ground in Cyrodiil—and, above all, those bots that farm materials and XP across all of Tamriel? It is contradictory and feels like a mockery of us

    @MrRealHumour @xMBGx They would be stupid to ever make them exclusive my point was IF they did Sony would be in freefall They have no alternative to - call of duty - crash or spyro (unless sly or Jak returns) - elder scrolls - gears - Forza - clockwork revolution

  • 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
