Teknoboss1 (@teknoboss1) reported@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.

sol (@solspun2) reported@XboxTimdog @HazzadorGamin i’m concerned about xbox because they literally have a single digit , lower than 5% margin. And they own my favorite ips through acquisitions! so yes i’m concerned that spyro, COD, elder scrolls, doom, crash, fallout, dishonored, warcraft, starcraft are gonna end up as trashware
-
McBee (@McBeeHS) reported@skitten_hund Bethesda went to the live service model so the Elder Scrolls story has been progressing in ESO. You'll likely just be in a new age of Elder Scrolls when you rejoin. Starfields problem were load screens and barren planets. Gameplay and systems were fine. They're probably holding back to see what Fable and GTA 6 can put out for a stable world with NPCs that live in it before committing.

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.
-
Benjamin Langner (@bglangner) reported@asobercannibal @LRSerling 💯 my issue. Not just this, but the writing in the game as a whole. Just felt like there was so much more that could have been explored but they either ran out of time or just weren't interested, which was shocking given how deep the elder scrolls lore goes
-
KingFanMan Bethesda (@KingFanMan) reported@TKsMantis The is no doubt been complete mismanagement of their two biggest games. How do you go over 10 years without even working on a single player Fallout or Elder Scrolls? Only problem, the ones who made that decision are still there.
-
Nick the Noticer (@basedcatman) reported@WolfBronsky @Grummz Skyrim was outdated when it came out.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.
-
Kold (@KoldSteel412) reported@JuiceHead33 Maybe they should improve how they develop their games so they’re not broken pieces of ****. It’s been too long since their last Elder Scrolls game, unacceptable.
-
Aphrah Ashe (@AphrahAshe) reported@CGRuby_VT I always say a similar thing about The Elder Scrolls. They are poorly made games with great ideas. The fact that the first mods for them are massive bug fix patches and UI upgrades says a lot about how poorly made they are.
-
Cody (@123NewsX) reportedBeen 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
-
Alex Walason (@AlexWalason) reported@JuiceHead33 With elder Scrolls being my favorite game franchise, the wait has been excruciatingly long for TES VI, especially with the lack of new info on it. On the other hand, I very much enjoyed my 500 hours in Starfield and while I acknowledge it's issues, I can't help but feel bad for it in a way. Can't help but to feel like it was dragged through the mud for profit by grifters. Going forward, I think BGS should focus on TES VI and making it as good as they can, but I also think they really need to show some form of new trailer sooner rather than later. Same for the Fallout remasters.

@dadgamer.bb (@blake_bean) reported@dtv20 @JezCorden Man, idk how many times I have to say it. Yes, all true but theyve only had all of these studios with all these IP for 2 years total..Your argument is invalid, we do not know what all of their IP now could do until the games actually come out. Like I said theyll eat **** for a few more years but people are not gonna just be like ehh I wont play Elder Scrolls, Doom, Wolfenstein, Fallout, Starcraft, Tony Hawk, Crash Bandicoot, Diablo, Overwatch, World of War craft Spyro, Forza, Halo, Gears of War, Guitar Hero, Call of Duty, Tony Hawk, and these are just the known IP they will and are making sequels too and not counting the original games we already know about Blade, Clockwork etc . So, the old argument of X Box can not do hardware is completely invalid until we see how these big acquisitions play out If theyre smart, they make all of that exclusive, and theyre consoles sell off the shelves.

Cow_G (@CCowGG) reported@TESOnline Thanks a ton. There are two tickets involved, one submitted by me 260610-001774, and one submitted by my friend 260610-001873. Both tickets are concerning the same issue.

Lé Wet Baguette (@WetBreadSticc) reported@xaviersonline_ why is it assumed that you must “age out” of the hobby? Nobody talks that way about enjoying movies or similar. anyways tho it’s **** elder scrolls, no one cares anymore and it’s gonna be ‘build your own castle’ slop and that’s the main issue, aging out or not.
-
Aaron Nash (@nash_aaron) reportedSensible decisions to fix Phil Spencer’s mess. Maybe we’ll even see new Elder Scrolls and Fallout games a bit faster as well.
-
Ness_and_Sonic (@Ness_and_Sonic) reported@Wwweffpo @RinoTheBouncer Wrong. Sony doesn't have the rights to Sonic, Crash Bandicoot, Spyro, Doom, Fallout, GTA, The Elder Scrolls, Final Fantasy, Bubsy, Assassin's Creed, etc. They only have rights to the stuff they publish. As a result, any of this stuff can be removed at any time...

SILVERADO! ||🐰//🐺|| (@Slumdog_Milly) reported@VoteBadenov The elder scrolls franchise has never had a long running issue with stealth archer builds noooooo why would you think thay
-
Reece “Kiwi Talkz” Reilly (@kiwitalkz) reported@MAJ_Starman You dont think it was irresponsible to release a trailer for Elder Scrolls 6 in 2018 when the game wasn't even in development?? TES 6 didnt start production until late 2023, 5 years after the announcement. Fallout 5 couldve been given to Obsidian to make years ago. Bethesda prints money, my issue is with how they have managed the POTENTIAL of Elder Scrolls and Fallout given how MASSIVE those IP are.
-
NuclearWinter 🇺🇸 (@NuclearWinter69) reported@Grummz Get rid of all their online live service **** and go back to fallout and elder scrolls. I’m sick of them shitting all over their fans

Der Kernel (@Der_Kernel_) reportedLet’s pretend that 15 year gaps between a series is okay. Let’s just pretend that’s fine. Let’s pretend that you really need all this extra time to make it just right, even though Skyrim took only 7 years and they also released fallout 3 in between. Let’s pretend that Bethesda is pushing out rockstar level of quality games. Let’s pretend that you can actually justify the timetables with the level of polish. Let’s pretend every Bethesda game has been bug free and never had any technical issues at launch. And Let’s also pretend that if they did, they were swiftly patched and fixed and wouldn’t still be suffering on a particular Japanese console years after release. Let’s pretend that it’s critical for Todd Howard to touch every aspect of the game. Let’s pretend he is the only key to success. Why in Oblivion would you NOT allow other companies to run spin offs of the IP. Why WOULDN’T you push for a New Vegas 2? From purely a business decision how does it not make sense to have Elder scrolls spin offs? Not even a small RTS game? Really? Can ANYONE actually explain how this makes a lick of sense when New Vegas has become the cult classic? Any excuse beyond pettiness? Beyond selfishness?

Dutch 🇻🇦 (@Grim_Dutch) reported@grlicking @RedDeadDovah @TESOnline I mean I actually recorded my self putting gear on, and showing how to enable a cheat that makes a player unkillable with it. They didn’t fix it for a year man. A year. No. This needed to happen.
-
Sony Toprano (@grlicking) reported@Grim_Dutch @RedDeadDovah @TESOnline And you think fewer people working on the game is going to fix those things? If anything it's going to make those problems worse

XSaltedOne (@XSaltedOne) reported@K__Med Here's my expert analysis. Smaller studios were purchased to pad content prior to Zennimax and ABK. Phil gave those studios a lot of rope, because they needed content. The problem is, they were given too much autonomy, probably because of the praise Xbox for the handling of Mojang. Covid delays aside, when all you had to launch from first party in 2022 was Pentiment, it kind of shows how desperate they were. Now that they have AAA output and top tier IP, the overhead from these smaller studios is sucking resources with little to no ROI. I loved South of Midnight, but running that studio for 7 years of development is a drain. To be fair, it probably was a hindrance for the studios as well, because it allowed them to take their time and slow down production, since their budgets weren't a issue with MS backing. When you have big system seller IP like Fallout and Elder Scrolls, you don't need to worry about smaller projects unfortunately. That's why ABK used Raven and Toys for Bob as COD support. I think Asha is seeing that they can get great GamePass content from small 3rd party studios, and not take on the liability of running them. Expedition 33 and Palworld exceeded anything they could do in house, and when something like Flinklock fails, it can easily be overlooked. They are running into an issue where they have too much content, and these smaller titles would not move the needle for console sales or subscriptions. It's sad, but I understand the business side of it. I kind of wish that Xbox just spun off the little guys as their own "indie" style division to work on smaller quirky titles with smaller budgets and quicker turnaround, but something like that would take time, that I'm not sure they have.

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 😩
-
Regalia Legends of Runeterra (@Regalia_LOR) reported@IGN Rushing The Elder Scrolls, Fallout, and Halo just to pad the balance sheet for a corporate spinoff is how you get unpolished, broken games at launch. If Asha Sharma forces these studios to sprint to the finish line, she’s going to permanently damage Xbox’s biggest IPs
-
swissch33z (@swissch33z) reported@ResidentStevil_ Unreasonably long game dev times are a serious problem with video gaming today, yes. That's not even unique to Valve. The next Elder Scrolls was announced years ago. Beyond Good and Evil 2 has taken longer than Duke Nukem Forever. The last 3D Mario was almost a decade ago.
-
meh (@LAmeh87) reportedtent pole series games and in between those releases pump out new Crash, Spyro, Tony Hawk, and so on level games. Games that will be done well received and sell well but aren't going to be nearly as expensive to make as a Fallout or Elder Scrolls. I think that while layoffs are
-
Jordan Stapleton (@GTAJJ_) reported@katanaollie @Wario64 They do third party deals - the issue Xbox faces is that they have to pay more because they have less market share to make up for the sales difference. The only way to gain attention is either overpay (they have every year) or earn attention through creations. Why would you want Elder Scrolls and Fallout exclusive? What does this bring to an Xbox user? These entities are multiplatform and using your wealth to control the market entity and rug pull is dangerous.
