The Elder Scrolls Online Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Raoul Duke (@allseeingsylar) reported@CursedTio @TESOnline DKs are so broken and over powered. They shouldn’t be able to do insane damage and tank. They clearly don’t play the game
-
AI (@WeboQueso) reported@DPermabear @PiggyKropotkinn It’s literally top 10 live service game. You don’t just stop Fortnight, FF14, Wow, Elder Scrolls, warframe, Rivals, Genshin, Rocket League etc. Sony is rtarded they bought what they wanted to end it smh
-
Jeff (@Sylar_N7) reported@OtterRuin @TESOnline he issue is not my original statement, but that you don't understand my original statement. I don't know how to explain it any easier for you bud. Right now in 2026 the 4 original classes and weapons have ALL THE SAME SKILLS. No innovation at all. Boring AF
-
Marielle Redclaw (@MarieleRedclaw) reported@NikTek They do one at a time The thinking among the fans for a long time is that they really need to split into separate teams independently handling Elder Scrolls, Fallout and now Starfield. Maybe a fourth team who does nothing but fix bugs and do feature updates to the Creation Engine.
-
SaltProphet (@ProphetSalt) reporteddon't really understand why people are so cheesed about elder scrolls if they announce a release everyone will come up with 11 other problems before the thing is out when it comes out, people are gonna dislike it and say they don't make em like they used to
-
Foxhound_N10 (@Foxhound_N10) reported@XBOXGamePass @TESOnline And fix Cyro, dammit. We need bunker buster sets for troll solos who don't die, run away, and take 20 people to take down; it stops all play. Saying this as a solo who dies with honor fighting and gives gg’s. @TESOnline Nightblade needs more Penetration with above-and-beyond.
-
RJ Kelly (@rjkelly13) reportedI was thinking about this earlier. Bethesda was so enormous that they had their own stage show dropping games left and right. Now it's just live service Fallout 76 and Elder Scrolls Online and Doom stuff. What a dropoff.
-
Jay (@JayHob) reported@LukeDutchh Totally agree. £100 for GTA6 or Elder Scrolls 6 is fair. Problem is EA etc will see this and start charging £100 for FC/2K etc 😩
-
BirthToBurial10 (@BirthToBurial10) reported@asha_shar @asha_shar @XBOX after the Acquisitions every game should have been exclusive every game that's not live service should be exclusive that's how you sell consoles!!just like Sony does it every game is exclusive Elder Scrolls 6 exclusive Fable State of Decay,Blade.. every game
-
El Manuel (@nobccash) reported@vrakhiri Mostly vanilla unless there's a QoL mods that fix something I hate Only exception really is Elder Scrolls, even on day 1 of Skyrim I downloaded a few mods
-
Marienritter (@marienritter_) reported@pipkinpippa @Aquadile96 Its gameplay was okay, but its lore causes a lot of problems. You didn’t play the earlier games so you wouldn’t see it, but that’s really what divides the Elder Scrolls community over it.
-
HowDatFeel (@joseagu59410157) reported@TESOnline Fix your game instead of adding stuff lol what a joke
-
PsychoticGoat (@psychoticgoat) reported@TESCountdown Yup, we keep waiting and getting elder scrolls online and fallout 76 live service updates instead. Truly disheartening
-
❦ Asif ❦ (@Asif_not_here) reported@Grummz "Anybody not working on fallout or elder scrolls is at risk." Wait until these games are finished... heads will roll
-
EagleEye (@USEagleEye) reportedIt 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.
-
Jesus (@OPGODA_) reported@TheGamingLedger I mean she is in a very tough position. Obviously no one is expecting games like Minecraft, Call of Duty, Elder Scrolls Online, Overwatch, World of Warcraft, Candy Crush etc to be exclusive to Xbox. All Xbox fans want is some games to be exclusive. Fable should've never been ported to playstation at all. You have an argument with Halo, Gears and Forza because those are live service games. I dont expect the Forza, Sea of thieves franchise to ever be exclusive to Xbox again. If they want to port Halo mutliplayer they should do along with Gears. However, Halo Combat evolve and Gears E day campaign should've never been ported to Playstation. If none of "Xbox tentpole titles" are exclusive anymore I hope they have a strategy to make new Xbox mascots to replace them in the new era of XBOX. Thats the least they can do to appease fans in my opinion
-
🇵🇷 (@Zerminator_) reported4. EXCLUSIVITY TALK (PART 1): Xbox-Original single-player franchises (Halo, Forza, Gears, Fable) stay exclusive while Xbox-acquired franchises and multiplayer games (Elder Scrolls, COD, Minecraft, Sea of Thieves, Crash) remain multi-platform. Don't care. Talk to the wall. (4/?)
-
goregram (@goregram) reported@TESOnline new mythic still broken for pvp an i cant even go to other CP campaigns to play with friend's since its alliance locked an you got rid of the rest. well not paying for eso plus for this trash. guess time to find another game. any suggestions?
-
Curse (@Cursemark143) reported@tris_ko_nel @mjHushpuppy Well "why now" is because of Asha. Her and Phil's idea of what Xbox should be differ from one another. It was so bad that people thought Xbox was becoming a Publisher rather a Platform competitor and the expectation was that they would eventually ditch the console all together. And Gears of War is not Live Service like Elder Scrolls Online. Gears main attraction is the Story & Coop play. Now to answer "why get an XBOX if its on PC". If you have a PC chances are you are content already because you will have access to XBOX. But for those that only have a PS5 and like having a console over a PC (which is a lot of damn people), the only real way I can see them converting, is exclusives. Great games sell consoles. There a lot of people that still have PS4's and cant afford a PC or PS5 (which has risen in price.) If Asha is trying to make everything at XBOX affordable again with Gamepass, future consoles, and a great line up of exclusives than I believe XBOX can become a huge competitor again for Console sales. I mean idk if Im alone on this, but like I said if I didnt have a PC, and The Elder Scrolls 6 was locked to XBOX/PC, I would buy an XBOX. The same reason applies to GTA6. Its not releasing on PC until after console, and its because Sony expects people to buy their console for ONE game. If you can lock down ONE insanely good game, you can sell your console like hot cakes. If TES6 is locked to XBOX I can see XBOX's getting sold left and right. But maybe Im just glazing The Elder Scrolls lol idk
-
Dan (@CrikeyItsDan) reported@MrViceKC @GoodGameKofi Like I said I would love to see the Liver service everywhere, single player exclusive strategy. Fallout 5 and Elder Scrolls 6 alone move a lot of consoles, but not if you can just get them on your PlayStation.
-
Walker-4042 (@4042Walker) reported@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.
-
Vector (@PrasVector) reported@InternetH0F Finally. Been waiting forever for new Elder Scrolls news. Hope they actually deliver this time and don't rush it out broken.
-
fromsoftserve (@fromsoftserve) reported@thunderba11r I mean, elder scrolls 6 is the game they’re working on right now and have been for some years. I think the issue was announcing it waaaaaay too early. I also don’t blame them for trying something different with starfield, even if it didn’t totally pan out how they wanted.
-
Asteria Xilfaren (@xilfaren) reported@Latoniksyze @TESOnline Does anyone here know how to read? They posted somewhere that they had an issue with console side and that it was delayed. You act so impatient for what? Literally nothing. Taking out your anger on the poor media manager... Truly unemployed behaviors.
-
Dan (@CrikeyItsDan) reported@The_CrapGamer Xbox COULD be the only console that plays. Halo. Gears. Forza. Fallout. Elder Scrolls. Fable. CoD. (eventually) And more! Exclusives weren't the problem, it's that Xbox didn't have consistently great ones like Sony did. Now they could, and they gave up before even trying!
-
Ma SkullyVT (@Ma_SkullyVT) reported@TESOnline I still try to fix my hdr that looks awful
-
Screams-About-Politics (Farmtool) (@Biggistfatgoose) reported@BerdlyGuy @fambramb Uhm? what? Sweet rolls are kind of an iconic food in elder scrolls even then I barely hear them still, NOW DELTARUNE can't stop making ******* spamton jokes thats the big issue here

ShadowMosesLikes🎮🎧💿🏢💿 (@MosesGames) reported@TESOnline It doesn’t matter, you don’t listen. After a decade you’re still just giving lip service.

Foxhound_N10 (@Foxhound_N10) reported@TESOnline @TheJackalAgenda What I want to see happen with ESO as the game continues to evolve is the pure classes actually to FEEL Close to the lore. Each should have a key strength and weakness. The entire combat system should revolve around that, not a meta. A Sorc should be the king of ranged AOE/Bombs, weak up close, or no shields. A Nightblade should be the king of single-target damage and deleting any player (burst), scaled from their health/armor if they take the time to hunt undetected. But it's the sacrifice of being a glass cannon. An Arcanist should be the king of ranged single-target damage. And a Dragonknight should be the king of toe-to-toe battles, one-on-one, but not as bursty, but very strong defensively, as the standard well-balanced of all, but not superior to the rest. Right now, you have kill screens filled with me, too, DKs, and it's like watching the Clone Wars in Cyro. But each of these characters should be a toolbox in its own right for vet players. Is there a necro tank that refuses to die? Grab the Arcanist beam to the face, huge DOT, and problem solved. Are there nightblades all over the little village? Grab the sorc and start raining huge AOE’s to reveal and drop. A pesky Templar that won't go down? Grab the Dragonknight. But the combat system has felt for years like it was tailored to the sets and mythics rather than to specific characters to upgrade your toolkit. I was deeply disappointed in this video when Asmon who I enjoy flat out walked away from camera for two whole minutes during your game showcase. Then I had to look up why. And apparently, he criticized the combat system in 2019, saying it was clunky and dropped the game entirely, though he noted it was beautiful. That should concern you. These things should make sense to the average player. Feel like a quiet solo night hunting alone? Nightblade. Feel like brawling it out in a fistfight with a large group. DK. Want to try ranged bombing? Arcanist. But tie it all together, please make the story and the battles make sense with the combat instead of making one way overpowered character (DK), everyone copies, and you get the same kill screen. Otherwise, you are going to turn average NEW players away, and I really love this game a lot to go forever, especially all the friends I've made :) See where I'm going? I don't want to play the meta, I want to play what fits my playstyle and themes for that mood. Why wouldn't a High Elf magika Sorc be the best for PVP instead of stamina? So keep going, EVEN if it ruffles the feathers of the sweaties who don't want change or to keep it the same old same. Those people retire and need to be replaced over time anyway, and you want to sell more shinys, right? Please pass it on @TESOnline

Elgacnilloc06 (@Elgac161406) reported@TESOnline Even better I get dealt cards in my next hand where the player is 100% able to win because they turn all tribute there direction. ESO / Devs know this is a total absolute crock! FIX THE GAME and make it fair!
