HowDatFeel (@joseagu59410157) reported@MosesGames @TESOnline The only thing they care about is how to make 2 billions dollars again it's so sad I spent $60 for eso sub biggest mistake I have done they cant even fix day one bugs 😪
-
Earl Diggs (@EarlDiggs3rd) reported@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.
-
Nate Da Great (@NateDaGr8Ate8) reported@playstationyesr @sassykitten666 That will fix it because PC and PlayStation people won't get games like elder scrolls 6 etc that'll make em buy xbox
-
Valdenn (@sirvaldenn) reported@Swurv__ True enough about Crimson Desert. Elder Scrolls VI has a Bethesda problem, though. Yeah, it'll make money, but not as much as if it were good. Starfield suffered because people saw and said how abysmal it was. TES VI will have the same issue.
-
Xycofox (@xycofox) reported@ZeniMax_Online The Elder Scrolls Online. It's been 25 days this issue has been going on. Previous tickets have been either cancelled or put on hold, your team is stating that it's been pushed to a "smaller" team. I paid for 1 month of ESO plus, never got it....
-
Truong (@Get_In_Redmen) reported@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?
-
Accidental Suicide the Clinton Foundation (@truegram) reported@Foxhound_N10 @TESOnline I guess you haven't played in awhile then because the new mythic mixed 2 outher sets 1shots "everyone" in a millisecond less then 1 frame in cyro just go look at the eso forums. An I don't have faith they'll fix it or have more broken thing's that make ppl quit next update.
-
𝓜𝓪𝓻𝓴 (@RoninTaizen) reportedBlame on Bethesda and their goddamn creation engine. I wouldn't be surprised if The Elder Scrolls VI is gonna have problems too and don't tell me it won't just because it's a ******* updated creation engine. Also, I really think Bethesda likes to **** on Playstation somehow.🤔
-
Nethilez (@Nethilez) reported@Xylus19 @Dee_Batch @klobrille Both Zenimax/Activaion are 1st party but have a legacy of being multi platform. I do believe new IP singleplayer IP should at least be timed exclusive. Though I have no issue if Elder Scrolls is timed for for exclusive, up to them and data
-
Foxhound_N10 (@Foxhound_N10) reported@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!!
-
Wazzupguys (@WazzupR2012) reported@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.
-
Brooks (@Brooks_exe) reported@imajanitor @Lilulicious Bethesda signed a Contract to keep Fallout and Elder Scrolls multiplat, the problem they're facing selling their games on xbox and PC is that their games aren't selling at all, Todd Howard forgot that Bethesda games sell better on playstation than xbox and PC combined.
-
Nowa (@Gamer_Girl_Nowa) reportedWe 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
-
Ron Paul🇺🇲 (@alienteslax) reported@magicmacabre @TESOnline I'm on console and I do lag so idk what to tell you.
-
hellbender 🔱 🇵🇸 (@gasgasgas3) reported@Swurv__ CD wasn’t even that good. It’s a complete non issue to elder scrolls 6
-
Timdog (@AmericanTimdog) reportedIf xbox loses day and date on gamepass xbox can have Doom Fallout Elder Scrolls Halo Forza Gears Overwatch StarCraft Diablo Crash Tony Hawk Fable Quake Wolfenstein As console exclusives
-
Ron Paul🇺🇲 (@alienteslax) reported@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?
-
Jan Drelewski (@JDrelewski13996) reported@vicious696 What about elder scrolls 6 then ? It looks like if game have high sales potential it will not be on the service. Thats the dangerous precedent and to be honest it’s killing the whole point of gamepass.

𝙉𝙄𝙆𝙁𝙊𝙍 (@Nikfor_) reportedNow that it is confirmed Call of Duty will not launch on Game Pass Day One, it naturally makes me think about how this decision could affect The Elder Scrolls VI. CoD is a first party franchise with a lot of microtransactions, so removing it from Day One shows that Microsoft is adjusting how it approaches major releases. Elder Scrolls is one of Xbox’s biggest IPs, and ES6 will almost certainly have a massive budget while being a single player game with far fewer monetisation options than a live service title. Because of that, it is reasonable to wonder whether Microsoft might use a similar strategy there as well. Do you think ES6 could also skip Day One on Game Pass, or is this change truly limited to Call of Duty? I am genuinely curious how you all see this situation. I buy a lot of games myself and I also have Game Pass, so I am looking at it from both perspectives. If live service titles with strong monetisation are difficult to support on Game Pass, it raises interesting questions about how huge single player projects fit into the model. We will see how it develops in the coming months and years. Overall I think the change makes sense, but it also brings up some valid things to think about.

DanHart1549 (@DHart1549) reported@BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Can someone PLEASE DM me. I've got a glitch occurring in @StarfieldGame with it telling me that I've got contraband and yet when I look there's NOTHING in my personal inventory. If I DID have it, I would use the Drop-Off Box to sell it. Thank you.
-
Quebber 💙🇺🇦 🏳️🌈 (@Calranthe) reportedI used to pre-order every @BethesdaStudios game and every @WeArePlayground Forza game. Microslop has with it's enforcement of copilot and "service" convinced me to "wait and see", I am still looking forward to Elder scrolls 6, but until I see how and if they will support external modding I won't buy it. As for Forza horizons 6, the next instalment of my favourite car franchise, I want to see it running and make sure Microsoft hasn't forced copilot into it.
-
StevieROM (@Stevie_ROM) reported@Bethesda_UK Fix the game instead of promoting it. I've never had a game crash this bad since Elder Scrolls Online on PS4.
-
furbotam (@matobruf_rm) reported@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
-
ⱮìçհąҽӀ φҽʂąҟ (@rieper47) reported@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...
-
Atlas Air 🇦🇺 (@AtlasAirx) reported@MedeirosDa61624 @TESOnline Exactly, it’s your experience. Unfortunately it’s not everyone’s experience. It doesn’t take much to see all the forum, reddit, facebook posts and most importantly what you hear in your community. It’s a growing issue across servers but I’m sure some are worse than others.
-
Morgaine (@Spell_Forged) reported@Pirat_Nation Using an old *** engine The HORRIBLE train wreck Fallout 76 was not just as a game but the entire fraud and bunch of irl issues around it. Then starfield… People saying they dont even expect Elder scrolls 6 to be good anymore is a realistic mindset. Bethesda WAS, but isnt now.
-
Debbie Burrows (@DebbieBurrows11) reported@xycofox @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline I know that feeling well ***, they did the same to me in march, I spent a week putting tickets in and asking on here to be told I had to ask Sony directly for the refund, I got it sorted within an hour by Sony. Bethesda have been aware of this problem for a while.
-
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.

Accidental Suicide the Clinton Foundation (@truegram) reported@TESOnline Games more broken then my Exs relationship with her dad

Chris W (@Chris_GWW) reported@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...
