-
willow 🟥 (@wintersre9uiem) reported@reishiGrowth Again, they announced elder scrolls 6 in like. 2017 or something. Cyberpunk was announced in like 2014. (Actually... CDPR and Bethesda both seem to struggle with the same issue...)
-

Gærsstapa (@gaersstapa) reported@lastchalice Frankly I think its going to tank their studio. Whether it sells or not is irrelevant; the time it took, the costs, the issues, etc. Its GG. Further Hammerfell is a bad place to set it now with the ongoing real world discourse, if they wanted Hammerfell it should have released in 2021-2023. Now it will come off as developer tokenism and DEI. And to be real, looking at the developers out protesting, yea, it does look like that. Which means we are getting The Elder Scrolls: Starfield Edition. And I definitely don't think the team has the ability to make it as modular as Skyrim, which is the real reason the game is still a dominant force in its player base, from SteamDB; Skyrim SE: 39,382 players as of typing. Oblivion Remaster: 2,464 players as of typing. Starfield: 6,446 players as of typing.

FatBluntSmokR (@FatBluntSmokR) reported@TESOnline Yall should really fix Cyrodill and Imperial City! There are some nerfs that are much needed, like the stamina/magica drain, make it fair again please! Can’t break free, roll dodge, or block… just stuck eating it… got the best gear build, it’s just the getting stuck thing.

TJ Jimmy Falker (@FalkerTj) reported@aaniVibeTheory Idk fallout new vegas if you can polish it a bit and fix bugs without ****** up what was there. Elder scrolls Morowind too... if you mean an upgraded revamp the true crime streets series. Dont kill my wallet though fo an already made polish up. Bought it once prior save my wallet

Falmingkitter (@MaldingKitter) reported@ShitpostRock Elder Scrolls 5 had this problem with most of it's "main" holds
-
Emily (@o_XxEmilyxX_o) reported@TESOnline Please fix the drop rate for the new Breton plans that drop in Daggerfall area. The purple plans are still not dropping.
-
Bonafide XP (@BonafideXP) reportedThe Bethesda Address today screams to me, a level of desperation to maintain a calm temperature to the fans. Gamers should never have been asked to wait 10-15 years for a mainline Fallout or Elder Scrolls game, while you milk wallets for a live service game in Fallout 76, a title that no one cares about. Phil should’ve done something about this years ago, but it took a woman from Wisconsin who doesn’t play games to get in that *** and shake things up. Bethesda is on a hidden timer, and I’m still not sure they’re going to deliver. @XBOX
-
🟦DanDee🟥 (@FineNDanDee) reported@DrWoland1312 @NebsGoodTakes Its not a problem with Skyrim itself but a lot of ppl were just upset Bethesda Softworks kept re-releasing Skyrim instead of making a new Elder Scrolls
-
TransRoofKorean (@TransRoofKorean) reported@KarolWalczak9 @pureMetatron What do you keep doing as time goes on? I gotta get back to that. I have this weird issue I run into with every Elder Scrolls since Morrowind that I spend too much time minmaxing, do random stuff eschewing the main quest, get bored then come back years later and repeat it's sad
-
Wesley ✨ (@wesleytypes) reportedI love Creation Engine. Proprietary engines play a significant role in forming a game's identity and I would never wish that away. Bethesda is who they are in large part because of this engine. That said, to spend countless years and millions of dollars on a new game and NOT strive to break new ground or do something you haven't before feels like a waste. The Creation Engine hasn't shown a meaningful capacity to grow and change with modern gaming expectation and that's a problem. I still want Bethesda games to feel like Bethesda games, but if Creation Engine 3 doesn't massively impress and prove that it can deliver a truly modern gaming experience, it will be imperative that Bethesda make changes that I don't think they're willing to make. At this point, promising the future of The Elder Scrolls and Fallout on Creation Engine feels like a giant gamble.

Sam Hawkes (@Hawkes1986) reported@CultureCrave Released Skyrim in 2011, took unit 2018 to even announce elder scrolls 6..... And we're now in 2026. Honestly, I couldn't give a **** about es6 at this point. Your focus now is live service, passion for elder scrolls lost and more money live service won. Stick it up your arse.
-
@DarkPaladin000 (@Paladin000Xbox) reported@JamieMoranUK They do cost more you're absolutely right but there are some successful live service games out there Just look at Bethesda and how long they've done Fallout 76 An elder scrolls Online those games have a ton of players Sea of Thieves did at one point I'm not sure what it is now
-
Splat (@Splat_86) reported@denkatabro @AION2Official I really don't understand how people can say that live service is a dead end, it's still very much alive. I love single player games, played some like the Witcher games, Fallout series, Elder Scrolls, Deus Ex, Arx Fatalis etc but saying that live service is dead is very asinine
-
2026 Superbowl Champions🐆 (@chase_chase123) reported@Hero5700 @nickjcal People would flee PlayStation in droves if Elder Scrolls 6 and Fallout were Xbox console exclusives. The only issue is that most would go to PC instead of buying Xbox Helix
-
KhajiitCook (@Lgbt_Cherry) reported@Mark97009631616 @TESOnline Code needs to be consistent and work well a small error in it can cause alot of bugs from other lines of the code and they have to qa check everything and they got way less quality assurance team. So that's two bottlenecks.
-
Step'a'side (@Stepaside15) reported@BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Hi can you fix daily for Battlereeve Urcelmo and Lady Arabelle Davaux? Holgunn is ok. Both 2 are missing blue arrow on their boards - Ps5 eu. I checked emails i done all 3 yesterday but those 2 can't take today because of missing blue arrow.
-
Pusel (@PuselSpielt) reported@Reply_Addict The problem is that starfield makes it really obvious. In Elder Scrolls or Fallout you get a loading screen when entering a house or city. With Starfield you get like 6 loading screens just by switching a planet. Starfield was just too much
-
Bt-7274 (@Dimah_bA) reported@_bryanisreal @fuckusernamejor @daviruz Remind me. Didn’t Elder Scrolls 5 have micro transactions that started the whole mess we are in currently? I don’t see the issue in grinding levels. They were trying something new? It’s a good game On its own
-
MarvinHeemeyerthe2nd (@heemeyerthe2nd) reported@GHBSmith The problem with Starfield was it was so interior heavy that you had to go through 5 loading screens to get to where you wanted. An Elder Scrolls game wouldn’t necessarily have this issue.
-
Kloot (@ZakkenKloot) reported@vicious696 Elder Scrolls VI exclusive for PC, XBOX Series X|S, Helix & XCloud. I don’t see the issue tbh
-
Micah Anderson ✝️ (@Therealmekelle) reported@Qingjinnn @HazzadorGamin Elder scrolls 5 sold that much so ion really see the problem

Aakash Gupta (@aakashgupta) reportedSkyrim sold 30 million copies. Then Bethesda announced its sequel. Skyrim sold 30 million more. Most studios rush sequels because the old game stops selling. Bethesda had the opposite problem, and it explains the longest wait in modern gaming. Skyrim launched in 2011. Twelve years later it was the seventh best-selling game in history, ported to roughly ten platforms, some of them twice. There's a version that runs on Amazon Alexa. Every year without The Elder Scrolls VI was a year the 2011 game faced zero internal competition. A sequel kills the back catalog. As long as VI stayed a teaser, Skyrim remained the newest mainline entry in one of gaming's biggest franchises, and it kept compounding into a 60 million unit annuity. Todd Howard even asked fans to "pretend we didn't announce it." That sounds like embarrassment. It's also exactly what you'd say if your 15-year-old game was outselling most studios' new releases. Now Xbox's CEO is teasing a censored subtitle after a live playthrough. The moment they finally say the name out loud is the moment the Skyrim annuity starts its countdown. Eight asterisks is what it looks like when a company decides the annuity has finally run its course.

LoneWolf VR (@LoneWolf_VR) reported@HazzadorGamin @JezCorden problem with ips like fallout and elder scrolls is if they make it console exclusive it will kill the games sales as those games sell so well because its on literally everything.
-
Gobby (@ag_gobby) reportedIt’s a Nexus-created problem (at least for Elder Scrolls). Modding IS complicated because of possessive mod authors. If something has dependencies or conflicts, mod packs are still prohibited so the user must spend hours resolving it. This was discouraged pre-Nexus **********.
-
Ronin_Blades (@ronin_blades) reported@LoneWolfMitsuni Thats fair, however elder scrolls and fallout are still two very good and popular series which are plagued with bugs and optimization issues... so I wouldn't call Beasts of Reincarnation **** til you play or seen someone play it to get the full scope of the game. Thats just my op
-
OM Pilot (@OM__Gaming) reportedEven this somehow makes The Elder Scrolls seem like a bit of an afterthought - it is their current project and yet it is the last thing mentioned. I just don’t get the disconnect between how successful the franchise is and how it’s treated by the company.
