  @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.

  @GameReaper187 The last Doom tanked. Diablo, Elder Scrolls and Fallout are classic PC franchises. This is the problem they have better PC IP than console IP. And people have PCs so that’s where they play them.

  @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.

  @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?

  @Genie_93 @BBCNews If Elden Ring’s servers turn off, it’s playable. ARC Raiders is useless if the server turns off. The monsters are designed to be beaten by teams unless you want to grind for some reason. There’s also special events. Most live service is the second bucket. How many people actually play the same game for years if it’s not a social game with a community? ie world of Warcraft vs elder scrolls.

  @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.

  Jessica-Star ✨ (@SleepisforT) reported 20 minutes ago

  @Kylerm146110M @JuiceHead33 I don't imagine they will, live service and games with a long multi-platform legacy like Elder Scrolls and Fallout will likely stay multiplat But we will see, things have been changing quickly

  colteastwood (@Colteastwood) reported 21 minutes ago

  "Just 4 Games" was a short term solution and issue for XBOX says Matthew Ball. I'm predicting that most single player games are EXCLUSIVE to almost everyone. Elder Scrolls 6 and such... we'll see.

  @ShitpostRock2 The real reason is that a bunch of psychos haven't sat down and decided to make it an issue with a multi-media campaign of videos and articles with titles like "The Problematic Race Relations of the Elder Scrolls"

  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

  @MrViceKC @GoodGameKofi Like I said I would love to see the Liver service everywhere, single player exclusive strategy. Fallout 5 and Elder Scrolls 6 alone move a lot of consoles, but not if you can just get them on your PlayStation.

  @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.

  @lrbrazao @asha_shar They've gone the Live Service route, they'll milk that **** for all it's worth. You won't be seeing a new Fallout or Elder Scrolls any time soon, when they can keep milking you on DLCs and Microtransactions.

  Shifty_Chicken (@chicken_shifty) reported 28 minutes ago

  @K__Med Elder Scrolls 6 will be on PS5/6. Why? Paid mods from the creator club thing. Heavy micro transactions of any kind are Service games...I suspect.

  @Latoniksyze @TESOnline Does anyone here know how to read? They posted somewhere that they had an issue with console side and that it was delayed. You act so impatient for what? Literally nothing. Taking out your anger on the poor media manager... Truly unemployed behaviors.

  @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

  FineYoungGalahad (@Mason__666) reported 31 minutes ago

  @matt_gerken @JBishie @ballmatthew That's my point. They still had more focus on PS. 3 new announced games vs 2 for Xbox. If they really want to get back in the game, they need to make it all exclusive except for MP/Live service. Even the big stuff, Elder Scrolls and Fallout. Stuff that WILL sell hardware.

  @SynthPotato If elder scrolls 6 ever comes out i feel like we'll have the same issue cuz i don't think anyone wants to compete with the 2nd largest most anticipated open world game

  @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.

  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/?)

  Curse (@Cursemark143) reported 56 minutes ago

  @PaulTassi @mjHushpuppy Phil really dug a hole for Asha before he left. I wouldnt be surprised if Asha never wanted Halo, Forza 5 & 6, or Fable to come to the PS5. It was never her decision, but at the same time, if she takes them away she will face the backlash because they are already present in the PS Store. Blade will be a Console Exclusive, that much is kinda obvious. Sony has their super heroes and now XBOX has Blade, its only fitting. They said that Live service games will be multiplatform and everything else will be a "case by case" scenario.. this is why I believe that having The Elder Scrolls 6 on XBOX and PC alone, is probably a discussion being had... Now will that happen... Im leaning more towards "No". But if it happens, Im buying an XBOX. I have to play The Elder Scrolls 6 no matter what. I dont think its the platform, its the game. If The Elder Scrolls 6 isnt on Playstation, that wont stop me from getting it. To be honest, I would sell my Playstation to get an XBOX to play TES6 and I can still play GTA6 but not vice versa. And to me personally TES6 > GTA6.

  @Colteastwood The only winning move by Xbox is going back to full exclusivity except for live service games and Call of Duty and Minecraft Halo, Gears, Forza, Fable, Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Doom, Diablo, Crackdown, Dishonored, Starfield, etc all exclusive would sell boxes. PC a year delayed

  Gta 6 buyers really are smooth brained and dont realize they just let companies know they can do away with physical media. 100 dollars for a code? U do realize this creates a slippery slope right? Whats next? Fallout? Elder scrolls? Call of duty? 1 crash and its over
