  @TESOnline I feel like crossplay is a waste of time it’s just gonna cause more issues for the devs

  @TESOnline PvP AND night market? Wow, feeling spoiled with all of that non-content garbage. PvP is dead, no matter how many events you fail to launch, and the Night Market is ****** TOXIC for solo players, meaning you can't touch it if you have social anxiety issues. Keep your events.

  @Johnnymetal80 @Septic_Sauce The anticipation for the follow-up to Skyrim is a money maker approaching GTA. A lot more upfront sales will be lost with Elder Scrolls 6, so with this move I no longer have confidence in Game Pass as a service. It was about guarantees, no doubt, and that's now gone.

  @TESOnline So I can play the Night Market on a different character but can’t start the main quest with the curator on it? Please fix this.

  @JamieMoranUK It very much was broken and completely unfinished on a **** game game engine. Today, it's a much better game than it was, but it's still mediocre. To each his own type a thing. I'd rather have a new fallout game or Elder scrolls.

  @kellyoleksak @TESOnline Can’t access it still so god only knows! @TESOnline need to fix it quick!

  @TESOnline None because the “talk to the curator” quest step is broken

  @TESOnline Please don't neglect solo players. Last golden pursuit made it hard to finish solo, something that wasnt an issue before recently. I am a caretaker of elderly parents I don't get to team up & play in groups often because of this.

  @NikTek @CosmicMatt92 If elder scrolls 6 is great I don't care if it has loading screens, loading screens are even in the top 10 of Starfields problems

  @ZephhyLeo @CultClassicCage Yet the game still had plenty of bugs, glitches & issues, some of which were present in their 2002 Elder Scrolls game. "it was less glitchy than Fallout 4" It bloody should be, that game notoriously had performance issues, and technical flaws even found in the recent re-release.

  @TAHK0 Eh plenty of franchises do this fine without shoving their predecessors under the rug you don’t need to have played every elder scrolls game to get into Skyrim, also Zelda had no problem doing this before Totk

  @AF17550 It had its issues and a lot of them were avoidable but as someone who plays a TON of space games I don’t think people gave them enough credit at all. It’s real ******* hard to do what they did lol. This isn’t like making an elder scrolls or fallout, it’s a big technical ask!

  @TESOnline Yall REALLY need to fix the tomes. The only way to level it being challenges is really lame. Promotes not playing the game and just camping in front of a boss. There needs to be other ways to earn currency towards it that is just playing.

  @WoodsMonk @TESOnline Only problem is if we got them to change it for Solo players while this season is active, would they give us back the days we missed, or just say sod you. :/

  @RevenantRemnant Look at the devs of the next Elder Scrolls.....A hint and a HALF it's gonna crash and burn. Recalling my vlog on it when I tried my hardest not to make fun of those women. Yes,THOSE women,not the women who's capable of developing great games and not garbage.

  @TESOnline If devs really want this game to survive you should add content players actually want not random bs and battle passes. Give us new races like Ka Po Tun, Tsaesci, Tang Mo, Dremora, Maomer… New classes instead of all the convoluted and unbalanced subclassing. Fix PVP Cloaks Etc

  This proves HOW FOOLISH you are You have given MS/Xbox license to REMOVE 1st party games using the EXCUSE of cost ratio to XGP users Will Elder Scrolls 6 be in XGP? Maybe the cost of the game is too much per MS You fools have made a mess of a great service all becuz of

  @Swurv__ True enough about Crimson Desert. Elder Scrolls VI has a Bethesda problem, though. Yeah, it'll make money, but not as much as if it were good. Starfield suffered because people saw and said how abysmal it was. TES VI will have the same issue.

  @younghavok Elder scrolls 6? Story mode overwatch game? Crash bandicoot? Spyro? Halo remake? Fallout 5? Fable? Souls like WoW? They didn’t even try

  @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

  @vicious696 What about elder scrolls 6 then ? It looks like if game have high sales potential it will not be on the service. Thats the dangerous precedent and to be honest it’s killing the whole point of gamepass.

  The 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.

  @MrCraneGames @Pirat_Nation Ah, so a Cyberpunk 2077 style reinvention. That might help, but the problem is that they're behind schedule for Elder Scrolls 6 and Fallout 5. It's kind of a Catch-22 situation for them. Personally, I wish they'd just hand over Fallout 5 to another studio to clear their schedule

  @Swurv__ I don’t know about that. The Elder Scrolls used to be the gold standard in open-world RPG’s, but since then the industry has shifted dramatically and there’s a lot of competition. Elder Scrolls has a Bethesda problem if anything.
