  Some people are all talk well, I put my money where my mouth is as it pertains to Sony #Playstation There are a number of factors that led up to this. It's clear that Sony doesn't give two 💩 about their customers. Sony should be on alert however because their arrogance could backfire from a business perspective longer term. They think we don't have options but what have they really done this gen? - They chased live service and it failed miserably. - Concord? failure - Marathon...not the success they wanted it to be resulting in major layoffs at Bungie - Bluepoint games? Gone - They could have been working on a Days Gone sequel but no. - Wasted 3 years of Naughty Dog development time on a Last of Us MP and then cancelled it. - Horizon series MP - who asked for this? - Relied on remasters to compensate for the lack of first party releases - Started pulling digital movies from their stores and customers lost access - Announced no more physical discs by 2028, meanwhile while quietly shrinking available physical inventory in the market. I could go on and on... Look if Playstation is your ecosystem, that's great! I will never, ever criticize someone for their gaming tastes and what works for them. But you can't possibly defend any of the above and you can't really question why people are disenfranchised not only by Sony but the industry in general. So, I'm going retro and with XBOX for my ecosystem. I love how they have play anywhere, backwards compatbility, rewards, cheevos, etc... I'm a fan of Fallout, Elder Scrolls, Halo, Gears so it's more of a fit for me. Yet, Last of Us and Marvel's Spider-Man are two of my fav game series but I can still play those on PC so...there ya go! I always say, my decision and desire to express my decision should be inconsequential to you. End o' story. Peace, Dirk @xbox #xbox

  @TESOnline Dear ZeniMax Online Studios / The Elder Scrolls® Online Support Team, I understood the temporary deactivation of my account to protect against potential theft. However, despite providing all the required documentation (invoices/purchase receipts, secret question answers, and my personal information) that unequivocally proves my legal ownership of the account, the lack of any concrete action taken for days has become unacceptable. While I respect your security protocols, the prolonged delay and lack of a satisfactory response, despite providing all necessary proof of ownership, is causing significant hardship. As a player and customer, the continued unjustified blocking of my access to my account completely contradicts your understanding of customer satisfaction and service quality. Now that my account has been secured and my ownership has been fully verified, there is no longer any valid excuse for this delay. My request is clear: I demand that the block on my account be removed IMMEDIATELY and that my access be restored immediately. Otherwise, I inform you that if my grievance continues, I will be forced to take the matter to the relevant customer rights bodies and high-level authorities. I also warn you that I expect my case to be urgently transferred to a senior support staff member and resolved within the day. I request that the necessary action be taken immediately.

  It’s going to be so funny when Bethesda releases their next Fallout or Elder Scrolls game in 10 years and it still uses that ******* garbage broken piece of **** ghetto *** game engine

  @JezCorden We gotta stop blaming 2013 for the various **** Xbox is in in 2026. PS3 was in just as much **** and was able to fix it within a generation. E.g. Mattrick didn't convince Satya/Hood to spend 7bil on Bethesda, then do **** all with Fallout/Elder Scrolls.

  @Nerdcognito I have no problem with orcs not being inherently evil in some settings Shadowrun, elder scrolls, Ebrron and OG Warcraft all depict them well However Human they are not They are aggressive, temperamental and live to be lead by the strong They are not oppressed

  @JMaine518 @JackmoveJohnny The problem with this is that all it takes is a few examples having success for it to be the norm. We saw this when $70 was introduced. There’s always going to be a game that someone is going to be willing to make an exception for. If it’s not GTA, it will be the next Elder Scrolls, Naughty Dog game or whatever.

  I love Creation Engine. Proprietary engines play a significant role in forming a game's identity and I would never wish that away. Bethesda is who they are in large part because of this engine. That said, to spend countless years and millions of dollars on a new game and NOT strive to break new ground or do something you haven't before feels like a waste. The Creation Engine hasn't shown a meaningful capacity to grow and change with modern gaming expectation and that's a problem. I still want Bethesda games to feel like Bethesda games, but if Creation Engine 3 doesn't massively impress and prove that it can deliver a truly modern gaming experience, it will be imperative that Bethesda make changes that I don't think they're willing to make. At this point, promising the future of The Elder Scrolls and Fallout on Creation Engine feels like a giant gamble.

  This is Gears, this will be Fabel if the next one isn't well received, this is Dragon Age, this will be Fallout and Elder Scrolls if Bethesda don't fix up.

  @DeekeTweak we go back to the usual absurd debate, Xbox cannot make its games exclusive, but Play Station can, the last Elder Scrolls came out in 2011, we are not talking about making FIFA or Call of Duty exclusive, if Sony made Spiderman exclusive I don't see a problem with Elder Scrolls 6.

  If their work was as good as they claimed it to be, they'd have no issues finding jobs at other game companies. Also, in actually interesting news, Elder Scrolls 6 is in a "playable" state just based on this headline.

  @LoneWolfMitsuni Thats fair, however elder scrolls and fallout are still two very good and popular series which are plagued with bugs and optimization issues... so I wouldn't call Beasts of Reincarnation **** til you play or seen someone play it to get the full scope of the game. Thats just my op

  @Colteastwood well, besides being an ethical issue, its also about keeping your word i sold my Xbox because Microsoft promised to go multi, that everything would be a Xbox now they have a moral obligation to put Elder Scrolls 6 on PlayStation, because people believed them

  @Shubhamxpawar The first time I got linux was when I was still using my old deadbeat hp computer which had intel pentium and 1gb ddr3 ram in it, so windows 7 was lagging like crazy, and then I read somewhere that for such kind of machines, linux does the job, and I got myself ubuntu and honestly it really did put new life into that machine, then I also managed to run osrs and elder scrolls 4 into it, had a blast using Linux until I got a gaming build haha

  @TESOnline Near unplayable. 3 hour wait to get into PvP zone to participate in the event. Soon as you try to fight someone you realize they’re using the armory glitch and are immortal. Full heavy armor with all buffs and this guy can cheat kill you in one second. ESO thinks this is fair. No

  @WinC_Gaming Yeah that's the big problem. Exclusives mean nothing unless they have must-have games (released regularly) to back that plan up. Halo hasn't been that for a LONG time and they're going to need more than just Elder Scrolls 6 which is still years off.

  @CTPhipps1980 @RazorFist No one’s saying every programmer or artist decided to delay Elder Scrolls VI, but the issue is that Bethesda expanded its workforce while its output and quality took a nose dive the last 15+ years. Layoffs are a consequence of the studio’s overall severe lack of performance.

  @Nick101Gaming Because Xbox can not sustain a game that size in scope why can’t you understand that Xbox has less then 30 million gamers all on gamepass a rental service that does not support buying and supporting the studios that make them the elder scrolls will come to ps5 no Xbox needed!!

  Gotta test everything, I used to use the side sliding function to glitch my way over walls in a bunch of games. Worked in a bunch of places in Elden ring, they didn't play test that game very well. This worked, and I found places I could glitch through walls as well. In Elder Scrolls Morrowind, you could glitch through the door to the final boss and beat him without doing the quests. Just had to wiggle through the corner of the locked door. Everquest, you could take a shrink potion, sit next to a door, log out, and when you logged back in, the potion effect would drop, and you would just pop up on the other side. Do my best to try and break everything I do, I do to games what @TheSpiffingBrit does to them, I just don't make videos about it. "I also don't have a sweet accent"

  > I don't think Elder Scrolls will suffer that fate despite all the glaring issues of Skyrim to lifelong fans, it remains well respected enough I think TES 6 will sell gangbusters, but if TES 6 is FO76/Starfield quality I think TES will die painfully afterwards. >

  @pcgamer There is one problem and it’s that outside of the cities and some set piece locations, exploration was in cardboard procedurally-generated environments. There was zero reason to explore any of it, whereas all you want to do in Elder Scrolls and Fallout is explore.
