  @BRAP_Podcast I think the problem is people keep looking at Xbox like it's one console company with one goal. "Case by case" makes perfect sense when you remember Microsoft isn't just managing Xbox hardware. They're managing Xbox, PC, cloud, Game Pass, Bethesda, Activision, Blizzard, Mojang, King, and studios that came with existing contracts, platform histories, and audiences. Minecraft shouldn't be judged the same way as Halo. Halo shouldn't be judged the same way as Call of Duty. Call of Duty shouldn't be judged the same way as Sea of Thieves or Elder Scrolls. The idea that every game should follow one blanket exclusivity rule sounds simple, but Microsoft's gaming business isn't simple. People also keep forgetting scale. Xbox is a huge business, but it's still one division inside Microsoft. Microsoft doesn't operate like Sony or Nintendo because Microsoft isn't Sony or Nintendo. Those companies exist primarily to serve their gaming ecosystems. Microsoft's gaming ecosystem exists inside a much larger company. So no, "case by case" isn't mixed messaging to me. It's literally them saying they're going to evaluate each game, studio, audience, contract, and business case individually instead of forcing every title into the same box.

  @YC_0015 It was the equivelant of Bethesda and Todd Howard announcing Elder Scrolls 6 despite not wanting to for the good PR it would create / save face from their live service (for them Fallout 76)

  Been a huge problem for a long time. In 11 years we’ve only got 2 mainline halo games. In 10 years only 2 mainline gears of war games. Not to mention the mess with Bethesda. 11 years since the last fallout, 15 years since the last elder scrolls

  I don't want to make a full blown video on what #Xbox chooses to close but I do have some thoughts. We already know when Xbox got a new head that there will be major changes to the brand for the better. ✅ New UI ✅ New feedback website ✅ Exclusive games ✅ Gamepass decrease in price ✅ Other minor things ( can't remember ) Even after all these years Microsoft knows Xbox isn't profitable. So I ask a question. How do you make the brand profitable while? You know hard decisions have to be made. Are you trying to be people's friends or do what's best for the business because it was going under one way or another. Xbox finally has the games in development for the past while which is what matters. Xbox finally got some exclusives back. Some of the OG games that made the brand what it is. So is it enough to have those exclusives back to make profit? With all the ballooning costs and bloat of the brand closing studios and people being overpaid it seems like that's the direction that they are going. For the record I'm a fan of games as a consumer. I have had an Xbox since the OG and up. ( I have the other consoles as well. ). What Xbox should do is this in my opinion ✅ Close studios - Smaller studios reworked into bigger studios. We gotta be honest Xbox is starting to have games but we don't need all these freaking studios working on Call Of Duty. That's the dumbest idea they came up with Cod games should be 2-3 years away anyway. Have 2 main studios rotate. Close the support studios down. ✅ Actually hire so outside talent and lock there games to be exclusive games. - Again let's be honest for years people didn't like how Xbox games are compared to PlayStation and Nintendo. That comes down to quality and talent and what I.P would sell. We already have news that Xbox is going to focus on main titles to come out faster with quality ( I'm looking at you Elder Scrolls VI you are my favorite game studio even I have some criticisms. I still believe Bethesda games have their place in history which shouldn't change. ) Quality matters 1st and foremost If you have quality with a game people will come. ✅ Fix your overall image - You know what I mean even on this app you have lots of people just constantly grilling you for decisions made etc. So for once have a final push to silence that. So far Halo " without the super fans " is gonna do fine. Gears and Fable are shaping up great as well keep at it. The constant bashing of the brand " although funny at times which is warranted " gets tiring people online are making more money off your downfall then you are making profit. " Make that money creators it's hard out here ". At the end of this long and pointless post make the hard decisions make good games fix the brand. If you gotta step on some toes to do it go for it. We know the competion is letting up so do what you gotta do. Now to get this backlog down. P.S No I'm not making any kind of stand or rightous grandstanding. I'm just making a observation I don't like hypocrisy.

  @BROOKSWOODWORKS I'm glad they're doing something because their game pass direction was not working I think they have to reset and focus on exclusives. Fable, Halo, Bethesda's next Elder Scrolls and Fallout games. These are heavy hitter franchises that can revive the brand IF they are exclusive

  @TESOnline Thanks a ton. There are two tickets involved, one submitted by me 260610-001774, and one submitted by my friend 260610-001873. Both tickets are concerning the same issue.

  @TESOnline Yet you never fixed players Night Market progress after you messed up on a server crash and Yanking all progress. Plus you have been given the feedback that Vengeance is terrible and no one wants it… no one plays it. Yall need to start firing people in the main office.

  @DarkIxion Everyone came out swinging meanwhile Bethesda was like here’s trailers for our two live service games. No Fallout 3 remake no Elder Scrolls 6. They were the one let down for me.

  @ShitpostRock2 The real reason is that a bunch of psychos haven't sat down and decided to make it an issue with a multi-media campaign of videos and articles with titles like "The Problematic Race Relations of the Elder Scrolls"

  Gaming Since NES (@GamingSinceNES) reported 34 minutes ago

  @danno_omen @Sonnie_Slim Well live service are the games they want for sure. Sticky games are extremely valuable in this economy but between those 2 games, budget vs profit will tell but mega hits would be the CoDs, Elder Scrolls, Minecrafts as the surefires. Outside of that, we'll soon discover how low their bar is as I see games coming from id Software in a shaky position 🫣

  @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

  @TESOnline My guild and I think you need to fix the glitches that you have in the game already instead of adding more game. Maybe its time to clean things up plz??

  Jordan Stapleton (@GTAJJ_) reported 35 minutes ago

  @katanaollie @Wario64 They do third party deals - the issue Xbox faces is that they have to pay more because they have less market share to make up for the sales difference. The only way to gain attention is either overpay (they have every year) or earn attention through creations. Why would you want Elder Scrolls and Fallout exclusive? What does this bring to an Xbox user? These entities are multiplatform and using your wealth to control the market entity and rug pull is dangerous.

  @VexTheSunEater @BethesdaStudios I don't think I even want an Elder Scrolls 6. Just take a look at the Oblivion remaster. It was full of bugs and performance issues not to mention the weird uncanny redesign of khajiits. As a fan I rather them retire Elder scrolls or sell it.

  @TESOnline Y'all gonna fix Tales while you're at it? The game is toxic...and trying to enjoy a casual NPC match is insanely hard to do when they cheat. The players have PROVEN the NPCs cheat...Fix this. It doesn't add "difficulty", it's just patently unfair.

  @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

  Elder Scrolls 6 will be and will remain in a permanent broken state just like Oblivion Remastered. Modders don't have time, ressources and willingness to fix this 💩 @Bethesda just doesn't care about their games and customers

  @UESP_net Solo is NOT the same as single player. ESO & FO76 are the reason Elder Scrolls 6 & Fallout 5 are taking so long. Bethesda think they delivering what we want & the bean counters are happy to string us along because the live service model is far more profitable.

  @DarkEnzo0309 In the thread it says basically anyone who is not working on Elder Scrolls or Fallout is out. I want to see a Wolfenstein 3 too. But I have a feeling that we wont.

  Managed to somewhat fix the screen tearing by turning VSync on and capping framerate at 30, but the pop in is still atrocious. Other than that, it’s a fantastic game and really scratches the Elder Scrolls itch. Just, maybe play it on PC if you have one.

  @imo_omar @G27Status Same with Sony I think cod should stay multiplat but anything that's story driven spyro, crash, fallout, elder scrolls and many more 100% exclusive play the Sony game

  EagleEye (@USEagleEye) reported 57 minutes ago

  It has nothing to do with the fact theres a female lead. You don't see Tomb Raider getting hated on. It's the fact studios that take 4-6 years to make games spent time making a game that isn't starring the beloved main character Kratos. Hell people are pissed at Bethesda for making Starfield because it wasted 6-8 years instead of making the next Elder Scrolls. Time is finite for these developers, wasting time on stories no one cares about is the issue.
