  GeForce now is trash. Elder scrolls online keeps getting this weird bug. It's the wrong button binding and I can't fix it. Too many problems with these streaming services.

• 
  Zendarius (@Zen_Darius) reported 2 minutes ago

  @Asmoden3 @TESOnline It's the replacement for daily/weekly endeavor seals and probably some of the missing daily login rewards

•

  @TESOnline Update is more broken then the relationship between a Onlyfans model an her dad

  @xonebros Is it in a vacuum or does the Elder Scrolls have a Crimson Desert problem. Pick one.

  Nicholas Hanson (@da_asmodai) reported 15 minutes ago

  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.

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

  @TESOnline Fix the curator bug for the Night Market! Can’t see the quest starter in store or in game?!

  Blame 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.🤔

  The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Anniversary Edition developed by Bethesda Game Studios for the Nintendo Switch 2 port added improvements with an update 1.2 in February 2026 such as a new 60 FPS mode, a stable 30 FPS mode, and reduced input lag but it still costs $60 for a 15 year old game.

  @TESOnline It's laggy as it is most of the time you have to double tap for the abilities to work, sometimes triple tap and you wanna add a cross play? People are just gonna leave, I'm on console and every time I'm doing a trial or even a dungeon the lag is unreal. I'm on fiber btw.

  @TESOnline Of ALL the Vengeance campaigns I hit a giant lag spike and got booted from the entire game during the recent battle at Chal, it's this one, the one where you messed with AOEs.

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

  Doomer Fuggs hier mit Klarname! (@nichtnoki) reported 35 minutes ago

  @RonnieBlaz3 @TESOnline I play currently on PC/EU and I played on Xbox/EU till 2019. PvP were always laggy. It was the worst in 2017! The problem was the netcode and not so much the servers. Servers became better though. Much less problems with connectivity and rarely lags in PvE raids and stuff. PvP still shity though bc, like I said, netcode! To much garbage requests vom the server leads to too much data that has to be handled. They should really redo that from scratch with a tighter code. So better no usage of AI bs. They will probably not do this o.o"

  @pizzamoney83 @VulpeculaLunae @TESOnline they have too much instance. that the problems. zenimax really overestimate the number of people who play that game. too many time i end up in a 12 player group where the half is in a different night market. we must scream to them to travel to us otherwise they can't find us lol

  @LilithLovett Current Triple A meta is multiplayer shooters with live service and ranking systems, unfortunately. Elder Scrolls 6 is on hold till Todd figures out how to make it a multiplayer shooter. Let's hope he learns from Fallout 76.

  @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

  @Draven_X_23 @Dexerto You really think Elder Scrolls 6 is going to be good after Fallout 76, Starfield, and the Oblivion remaster which is still broken?

  What’s the point in playing Elder Scrolls Online if the dungeon queue is going to take almost an hour?! Can’t even do daily anymore because it’s super annoying! @BethesdaSupport fix your crap please…

  @TuryValdez @DuneAwakening I know what you’re talking about. I had the same issue with Elder scrolls online. The camera and the character model not in sync just hurts my head

  @MrCraneGames @Pirat_Nation Ah, so a Cyberpunk 2077 style reinvention. That might help, but the problem is that they're behind schedule for Elder Scrolls 6 and Fallout 5. It's kind of a Catch-22 situation for them. Personally, I wish they'd just hand over Fallout 5 to another studio to clear their schedule

  PSX94 (@PSX12394) reported 50 minutes ago

  @NeonBirdGames All Zenimax multiplat. Fallout/Elder Scrolls/Doom F.Horizon and Sea of Theives because they have done huge numbers everywhere and are semi live service titles. You need staples you can only find on Xbox Halo and Gears should be them. Remove them from day 1 on Game pass also.

  @StarfieldGame Yeah. If the standard game crashes why would we add more crap to it . Fix your games bethesda .. fallout 4 crashes , fallout 76 crashes, elder scrolls online crashes , wtf are you lot doing ? If programming is hard , go work at McDonald's or would you **** that up

  the elder scrolls has a scope and scale problem that makes tamriel feel really underwhelming the scope is too wide and the scale is too small

  adamska.eth (@Elesoterik) reported 56 minutes ago

  @Raven0178 @Swurv__ Did you actually play crimson desert? Lol. It obviously would have elder scrolls abilities and combat because its an elder scrolls game just everything about crimson desert works so much better than elder scrolls games, cell based games are cumbersome to the extreme, I shouldn't need seven loading screens in the same town, you know? I'm just kind of over that. I want more of what crimson desert offered me. And id love it if that came from a studio like bethesda with its rich story and lore, because honestly, they suck at the back end ****. I think everyone UNANIMOUSLY agrees on that, hence why "its not a bug its a feature" its such a well known bethesda meme. Everything they make comes riddled with bugs and issues and we are fine with it because its bethesda, I dont want to be fine with it, I want my cake and I want to eat it too, I want the rich story and I want the amazing engine for it to run on in the background. You can keep paying for ur slop if you want though.

  @DOC_DARK1985 What they gonna say if Elder Scrolls 6 has the same problems??? It's the devs of the port??

  Ender Rising (@EnderRising) reported 57 minutes ago

  @Jugulator__95 @TagTrinity After reading Jez’s article it looks like game pass will become a build your own bundle service, before Elder Scrolls even launches. What that looks like pricing wise, day one games, I have no idea. Starfield would have sold 25 million to 30 million plus copies during launch week if it wasn’t on game pass and was on ps5 at launch. The hype for the game was insane.

  @TESOnline The problem is that after reaching 10000 favors you have no reason to interact with the night market anymore.

  @xonebros I think long running franchises like Elder Scrolls, GTA and even my beloved Halo are in for a rude awakening. The gap between their entries is way too wide. We've gone from 3-5 years to 10-12 or more. The fans of the previous games move on and in some cases become developers themselves. That's where we see games like Crimson Desert, Expedition 33 and more come into the picture. These developers were inspired by the old franchises and made their own games with passion. GTA, Elder Scrolls and Halo are now established corporate franchises. Each entry has come out feeling more like it's trying to appease a corporate overlord that's demanding more revenue be generated from a single title instead of creating a one and done game in a timely manner New gamers are also coming along that aren't familiar with said franchises due to the gap in releases. A kid born on the release day for Skyrim is now in high school. They grew up with Skyrim being "that old game that Dad liked". While some may have gotten curious and gone back to experience and enjoy Skyrim (much like I went back to experience and later love Pac-Man and Donkey Kong), many just played whatever the new hotness was. In many cases, that was a cheap or free to play live service title like Fortnite, Roblox or Minecraft that could be experienced on any device they owned. Elder Scrolls VI and other legacy franchises have to deal with these. I think GTA 6 is going to be a massive test for these legacy titles and I don't think it's going to sell as strong as people think. A combination of unfamiliarity with GTA in Gen Alpha and Gen Z and the inflated cost of modern AAA will be a massive deterrent. I'm sure my fellow Millennial and Gen X gamers will buy it...assuming they haven't aged out of the hobby. Sadly, as that terrible Game Rant top 10 🐐 of gaming survey showed, we're becoming a rare breed in the industry.
