    @TESOnline Servers down again? You clowns already cost everyone a full day on the last shut down which cut into people's "paid subscription" time, there had better be some compensation waiting in the crown store.

    The Elder Scrolls 6 is absolutely going to be an Xbox console exclusive. If you missed it, Matt Booty said that all live service games will remain multiplatform and other games will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. The goal of exclusivity is always to sell consoles, and I can’t think of a game that would be better to sell consoles than Elder Scrolls VI. If Asha is serious about getting Xbox consoles back to being the focus, I think it’s a near certainty that it will be exclusive. What do you think?

    @XboxTimdog Crash e Banjoo. Halo e Gears. Fable e The Elder Scrolls.

    @UnkWerks @RinoTheBouncer Except it's not. It's a single player game that happens to include a multiplayer mode. A live service game is something like Destiny, The Elder Scrolls Online or Fallout 76. They tried to make Halo CE exclusive but couldn't because of various contracts already in place.

    @TESOnline Nothing to really dislike, but nothing to get overly animated about. Nice changes at the edges when there are critical core problems that bafflingly continue to not be addressed.

    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

    @kojimaicmatters I played the GBA version of FF2, and it was the only one I didn't beat. I got about 3/4ths through, but I just couldn't stand the way you gained stats. Probably annoyed me more than most because it was like retreading my issues with the Elder Scrolls games skills all over again.

    @Colteastwood Which ones? How do they choose? Do I need an XBOX to play Elder Scrolls VI? How about the next Halo? Right now, no one knows. And that’s a huge problem for player acquisition. I need a Switch to play the next Mario and Zelda, I need a PS to play God of War and Spider-Man. XBOX?

    @JPearson96 @VGC_News Live service is stuff like Elder Scrolls Online, Fallout 76, He didn't actually say multiplayer games, he strictly said live service games. Gears has multiplayer but isn't a service game, same with the next mainline Halo, it won't be on PS

  • Falgrin
    Falgrin (@Falgrin) reported

    @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?

    @stormfall33 Elder scrolls 6 is likely in development hell to some extent. There have been rumours of serious issues with development and I believe that. Skyrim was 2011, GTA V was 2012 and we are still getting GTA 6 first despite the money they make on GTA online.

  • MarieleRedclaw
    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.

    4. 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/?)

  • LegacyKillaHD
    Michael (@LegacyKillaHD) reported

    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.

    Nick the Noticer (@basedcatman) reported

    @WolfBronsky @Grummz Skyrim was outdated when it came out. They are still using the same Loadscreen Engine. If Elder Scrolls 6 releases with the same issues Starfield did, the studio is as good as dead.

    @Grummz Todd needs to go.. he is the problem … elder scrolls and fallout have outgrown him .. there’s genius teams stifled by him that exist

    @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.

    @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

    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.

    @JezCorden @JuiceHead33 Other platforms didn't buy the bulk of mid to top tier studies in less than 3 years. Exclusives are fine but when a mega corp buys 100 billion worth of studios it kinda creates an issue. If they keep the 4 tent pole, cool. They move Elder Scrolls...thats the ******* problem.

    @TESOnline You need to address the problem that caused the game to no longer work before Sept 1. It didn't happen to me, but two of my friends can't play. Just remember it effects the gaming of more than just the people who can't play.

    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

  • RationalBuckPod
    David | Rational Buck Podcast 🦌 (@RationalBuckPod) reported

    @Grummz I mean all they gotta do is release more staples and cash in. They bought or raised studios that stopped producing. They’re finally getting back to it but if we’d had the next Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Fable, and good Halo with more haste they never would’ve been in trouble.

  • JellalVT
    Jellal Alaric (@JellalVT) reported

    @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

  • Creetosis22
    Creetosis | EN VTuber 🐐 (@Creetosis22) reported

    I see a lot of people celebrating this because "omg finally, we can get new Fallout and Elder Scrolls games sooner!" Guys, this is a Monkey's Paw. Bethesda, without tight deadlines or being rushed from higher ups before gave us Fallout 4, Fallout 76 and Starfield. Three abysmally dogshit games, each worse than the last. While it is true that working within limitations can absolutely push innovation and creativity, I seriously doubt we'll get that from Bethesda. Emil's writing is **** with all the time in the world to do it, who honestly thinks that being pushed to make games faster will improve his writing? Does anyone think we'll get better RPG mechanics? Better world building? Better quests? All this will do is get us an even worse game faster. The problem is Bethesda, their leadership and company culture. Until that is fixed, of which there appears to be no sign of (has anyone seen how ******* lazy Terran Armada is?) then we won't be getting good games from them again. Unless you mindlessly consume slop, getting excited over this is only setting yourself up for disappointment.

    @xMBGx Does “Fallout” and “Elder Scrolls” include the live service version of the games like Fallout 76 and Elder Scrolls Online
