  @Tenkay23 @IdleSloth84_ I think SOD3 is a “live service” title. And I think that Senua may be a smaller project that they don’t see selling consoles. It’s all speculation, but BIG SP games is what I’m thinking. Gears, Halo and fable (going forward), Elder Scrolls, Fallout, etc

  don'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

  @bethesda You guys seriously piss me off. You have elder scrolls and fallout fans who have been starving for a single player experience for YEARS, but you insist on doubling down on these ******* service games. Stop. Read the room.

  @IsXBOXStillLast @M0NKEYCAN Maybe, maybe not. Imagine if, within a two-year window, the next Doom, Fallout, Elder Scrolls, Tony Hawk, Crash Bandicoot, The Evil Within, Dishonored, Wolfenstein, Killer Instinct, and Diablo all released but didn’t come to PlayStation—do you think that would have no impact?

  @HazzadorGamin I saw a post from George Broussard from 3D Realms/Apogee that layoffs at Zenimax have already started and that any studio not working on Elder Scrolls or Fallout are out. God I hope that's NOT true!!!

• 
  Michael (@LegacyKillaHD) reported 17 minutes ago

  There's rumors going around that anyone NOT working on Fallout or Elder Scrolls could be facing layoffs (at Zenimax). This is a total reset as Sharma has said. All in on their big IP franchises and if you dont fit that vision, you are on the chopping block.

  @LouisV1099 @PostUp_SOG It can work if they make Helix cheap. And make Elder scrolls, Halo, Gears, Forza, crash bandicoot, Spyro, Overwatch single player game at a consistent pace. Sony can’t match that volume.

  MasMenno (@MasMenno) reported 26 minutes ago

  @Jorden1506 The only part where it could be lackluster is if you go by exclusives. The overall output of the studios has been great. Over 10 live-service games with constant updates; Diablo 4, Overwatch, Minecraft and Elder Scrolls Online are currently peaking in players. 1/2

  @TESOnline so instead of improving the daily login, you put a ******* battle pass. the grind is unreal. if wanted that much grinding i would go to a ********** and i hate strip clubs. your events have gone so lame is hilarious and the rewards are pathetic.

  @Big__TeeJ @FL1NTZ @Zarathos88 They're not the same. Your original post was whataboutism and you conveniently left out cuts at arkane and zenimax where the current rumors are "anyone not working on fallout or elder scrolls is at risk" just to say "look Sony is just as bad as Xbox with this one studio".

  @KingpinThawne …sort of? technically speaking? in my mind, the main issue with properly calling them “open world” is that usually, there isn’t a whole lot of stuff to do, at least not compared to stuff like Final Fantasy or Elder Scrolls.

  It's been a week and I still cant believe we got a Persona 6 reveal. Now lets hope It won't be a "Elder Scrolls VI" problem.

  Thor Thunderdog (@ThorThunderdog) reported 41 minutes ago

  @stormfall33 The problem with releasing Elder Scrolls 6 is that it has to compete with your 12th release of Elder Scrolls 5

• 
  Big Yonk (@TheBiggestYonk) reported 42 minutes ago

  @Jetifyed2077 The problem is modern gaming development time being like 7+ years in some cases, and instead of literally just making a different studio, Bethesda would rather take 14+ years to create a new IP + a new Elder Scrolls game before doing the next Fallout. Skyrim was in 2011 lol

  Falgrin (@Falgrin) reported 48 minutes ago

  @EPG_Gaming_247 @MarathonDevTeam Yes, because it's not like we don't have live service games such as World of Warcraft, Final Fantasy Online, Guild Wars 2, and Elder Scrolls Online. There's still a lot more going on, and you want to tell me 10 Years is too long?

  fromsoftserve (@fromsoftserve) reported 53 minutes ago

  @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.

• 
  Octopus (@Fred420170) reported 54 minutes ago

  @djkkyle @orielkiller @shinobi602 I don’t live on Twitter, FMS was broken at launch, same with halo infinite, starfield did well, the rest are good but not system sellers like gears, next mainline balo, elder scrolls 6 etc.

  I don’t understand why they ever decided to do certain games multi platform. But also why they would ever consider doing ads in the games. Just make all of their exclusive series like the elder scrolls and fallout and fable exclusives, and then they won’t have any financial problems.

  @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!

  @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

  @TESOnline Yea but do you still make us respec on every login? Id be willing to comeback for this but im tired of having to respec all the time.

  Vince (@ThatBoyVJ27) reported 58 minutes ago

  @DrFuryWolf @CultureCrave @theinformation I’m hoping it means they use one there 20+ studios to make games for each others ip’s. Why not have obsidian make a fallout, or inexile make an elder scrolls. Would be sick to see a doom from the coalition or even a halo, or ID making a cod, double fine a crash game, etc.

  @chaosprimeZ The problem is... they won't be getting those many XBOX exclusives on the PS5 Even if XBOX hardware is insufficient, PS5 is also nowhere near to sustain a 3rd party Microsoft Gaming They will shut down most of the studios, and will only focus on CoD/Forza/Fallout/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.

  RJ Kelly (@rjkelly13) reported 1 hour ago

  I 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.

  @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.
