MadmanMadoochiMoola (@MadoochiMoola) reported@Pirat_Nation There is a very clear expectation from 2 totally different TITANS of the gaming industry. On one hand, Elder Scrolls 6. and on the other, GTA 6 1 is going to literally shut down countries and cause economic issues when it releases. The other one is going to be a 7/10 on IGN

🕷️VikingPsyche🕷️ (@VikingPsyche) reported@TESOnline Okay now fix the Xbox Anywhere client! I'm having so many issues with it!

Trevor Rieger (@trevorriegerxxx) reportedThe Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered by publisher Bethesda Softworks has not received a formal PC patch since Update 1.2 was released in July 2025. Frame rates dropping and traversal stuttering are still a problem for players.

Magic Sister (@magicmacabre) reported@alienteslax @TESOnline I’m on console and I don’t lag.

Jared Shapiro (@GetFitWithJared) reported@Xbox_SUPERFAN The thing with COD versus other first party games is they have 3 studios working full speed to crank out a $400+ million AAA game annually. Halo isn't doing that. Elder Scrolls isn't doing that. Forza isn't doing that. Those games on Day 1 are are all big value adds for Game Pass. If they remove them, they're going to see massive churn. I'm assuming behind the scenes they either didn't see a big enough bump in subscribers for COD or they saw a lot of people sub for a month or two, only play COD, then bounce. If that's the case, and you have polls all over the internet saying drop COD and make it cheaper, then I could see the business sense there. It doesn't make sense to risk subs and cut other first party games from the service, but there's always a chance the economics change

R̺͆o̺͆n̺͆n̺͆i̺͆e̺͆B̺͆l̺͆a̺͆z̺͆3̺͆ (@RonnieBlaz3) reported@BethesdaSupport @TESOnline 10+ yrs. BG/Cyro servers has been absolutely atrocious on PC/NA! for that 10+ yrs we have asked for a fix to the lag and in some cases Full on freeze for a good 15-20sec. Instead of adding content to these servers how bout we actually fix it(Maintenance)

HowDatFeel (@joseagu59410157) reported@TESOnline Lol how about fixing your broken game for 2 billion company u guys are sure cheap about fixing stuff

SavePoint (@savepoint_tr) reportedWild origin story unearthed at PCG towers — the name "The Elder Scrolls: Arena" was basically a last‑minute fix to pre‑printed boxes. 📦🧾🎮 • Ted Peterson says Arena shifted from tournament combat to full RPG as sidequests and dungeon‑delving took priority. • With boxes already printed, devs invented the Empire nickname "the Arena" and Vijay Lakshman slapped on "The Elder Scrolls" — its meaning barely defined. • A serendipitous, awkward label became the foundation of a decades‑long franchise. Would you keep a quirky, last‑minute title if it could become the next megafranchise, or rebrand for clarity? #ElderScrolls #GameHistory

Peyote_Wolf (@Peyote_Wolf_TV) reported@TESOnline Will vengeance fix the 10+ yr old server issues in Cyro or BG? Or just a small revamp to ui so ppl can say.. oooh thats cool lol but servers will still be all fudged up
-
💥 Garry 💥 (@GJ_Doggy) reported@MosesGames @TESOnline Thats a pretty crappy problem. I think the quest was called Those who would rule. If its not already in your journal and not in the crown store under quest starters possible might be bugged. Maybe id try a differnt device, like a second pc. Maybe missing a file

Joseph Kemper (@JosephDKemper) reported@joseagu59410157 @TESOnline If it's not happening in mass, on a predictable basis, then chances are, it's something about your system that is causing the problem.

HoD (@HoD_v1) reported@pizzamoney83 @TESOnline Where in night market you need to be elite player? :) difficulty there mid between vet dungeons and vet trials. Any average group can do this. There's zero new mechanics - a bit reworked old bosses, without any new mechanics. Problem there - excessive grind. It just boring.
-
Curtiss (@Univalentlion72) reported@RinoTheBouncer One of my issues is games like elder scrolls online with NPC's not referring to me character as he or she

That_Gamer_Nerd 🎮✌ (@ThatGamerNerd3) reportedWhat’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…
-
PogStandard (@pogstandard) reported@BethesdaMag Dawnwalker. Second place goes to Elder Scrolls, because the quicker we get that game released, the quicker modders can fix it

50 Grains of Salt (@MarkTur76042115) reported@DOC_DARK1985 What they gonna say if Elder Scrolls 6 has the same problems??? It's the devs of the port??
-
adamska.eth (@Elesoterik) reported@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.

hibernicus (@hibernicus_) reported@JezCorden Single player titles full exclusive PC/Xbox like Elder Scrolls 6. 'Live Service' titles like Forza Horizon multiplat Fable PS5 port needs cancelled. No 3P storefronts on Helix only Xbox PC, BattleNet, and console backwards compatibility. Helix needs subsidized to compete with PS6

Simple Z4ck (@SimpleZ4ck) reported@larptillidie @summergamefest The only game Bethesda is working on right now is elder scrolls. 6. They're not working on fallout 5 for many, many years.

Trevor Rieger (@trevorriegerxxx) reportedThe Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered from Bethesda Softworks still suffers from severe technical issues including persistent crashes and performance degradation over a year after its April 22, 2025 launch.

Xycofox (@xycofox) reported@BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Going on 3 weeks now since I paid for one month of ******* ESO Plus and you sons of ******* keep escalating it, quit dodging the ************* problem and send me my goddamn money back!
-
Captain Redbeard (@xCaptRedbeard) reported@Pip_Playz I mean, you could say the same thing about Elder Scrolls and Fallout, especially during the first few years of release. Broken, repetitive, but still enjoyable. Bethesda just doesn’t handhold, so we have to use a bit of imagination and head-canon. To each their own, though.

ᚫᚢᛞᚢᚾᚫᚱ (@CrimsynRain) reported@Loren_A_Sutton @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Is it broken again?! I know the other day my favor was gone and I was no longer in a faction. This is becoming ridiculous

R̺͆o̺͆n̺͆n̺͆i̺͆e̺͆B̺͆l̺͆a̺͆z̺͆3̺͆ (@RonnieBlaz3) reported@BethesdaSupport @TESOnline last “maintenance”caused server issues on my end. Even more than usual -Micro freezes/stutters in all zones includes PvP/BG where in PvP Freezes/Stutters is a massive issue -Grass textures constantly popping in/out causing frame drops -FIX THE SERVER! -4070Ti super i513600k 32gb

Monday (@lxMondayxl) reported@Frogboyx1Gaming @asha_shar If Sony owned ABK/Zenimax. Xbox would never see Crash, Spyro, Call of duty (after contract is up) Starfield, Elder Scrolls and so on. Xbox is not trying to beat Playstation. They're trying to monetize them. While destroying their own brand. It's fine that only Xbox share games.

Doomer Fuggs hier mit Klarname! (@nichtnoki) reported@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"
