    @TESOnline Wow, I thought people were being too hard on this, but they were right. Solo Veteran Dungeon: No problem. Solo one mob in Night Market: F#ck No!

    I used to pre-order every @BethesdaStudios game and every @WeArePlayground Forza game. Microslop has with it's enforcement of copilot and "service" convinced me to "wait and see", I am still looking forward to Elder scrolls 6, but until I see how and if they will support external modding I won't buy it. As for Forza horizons 6, the next instalment of my favourite car franchise, I want to see it running and make sure Microsoft hasn't forced copilot into it.

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Can someone PLEASE DM me. I've got a glitch occurring in @StarfieldGame with it telling me that I've got contraband and yet when I look there's NOTHING in my personal inventory. If I DID have it, I would use the Drop-Off Box to sell it. Thank you.

    @StarfieldGame Yeah. If the standard game crashes why would we add more crap to it . Fix your games bethesda .. fallout 4 crashes , fallout 76 crashes, elder scrolls online crashes , wtf are you lot doing ? If programming is hard , go work at McDonald's or would you **** that up

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline What is the point of performing such lengthy server maintenance when you fail to ban players who use hacks to glitch through the ground in Cyrodiil—and, above all, those bots that farm materials and XP across all of Tamriel? It is contradictory and feels like a mockery of us

    @TESOnline @spantifical When are you going to fix all the bugs in the game? Abilities don't work the first time, so I have to double tap it, trials are laggy, crown store stole my crowns twice I started a ticket awhile back and heard nothing. So wtf are we paying for?

    GeForce now is trash. Elder scrolls online keeps getting this weird bug. It's the wrong button binding and I can't fix it. Too many problems with these streaming services.

    @TESOnline Why don't the Devs focus on fixing the goddamn billing issue. ************* pay you but you don't give them what they paid for.

    @RazorwireRPG Elder scrolls fans don’t **** about ESO. It’s a live service game that isn’t an actual canon game. Just like 76. It’s just “content”.

    @MoonBeamFlare @TESOnline I had the same issue until I was finally able to go to the main map, then to fargrave where the icon showed up and I could finally transport there. Don't waste your time unless you laugh at Veterans dungeons. It is ridiculously hard.

    @Pirat_Nation Using an old *** engine The HORRIBLE train wreck Fallout 76 was not just as a game but the entire fraud and bunch of irl issues around it. Then starfield… People saying they dont even expect Elder scrolls 6 to be good anymore is a realistic mindset. Bethesda WAS, but isnt now.

    @RyanStrifePlays @TESOnline Yes 2 team BG was a design error. 8 vs 8 was fun but all the others modes can disappear forever as an error.

    @Swurv__ Nah. They f’d up with starfield and posting the teaser to elder scrolls when they never started work on it just to appease their investors. They’ve had years to fix starfield but still obviously haven’t.

    @SSiddiqui146 It's no coincidence that those things came packaged with the vapid and generic art direction of the remake. The elder scrolls 4 remake has identical issues

    @TESOnline The problem is that after reaching 10000 favors you have no reason to interact with the night market anymore.

    @TESOnline Before adding “CrossPlay” FIX the SERVER! It literally cant handle the current population, yet ZoS wants to add more content /players to a Unstable server that has been broken for yrs on PC. from what i hear on consoles as well. All we want are stable/reliabe Server ZoS!!!

    @xonebros I think long running franchises like Elder Scrolls, GTA and even my beloved Halo are in for a rude awakening. The gap between their entries is way too wide. We've gone from 3-5 years to 10-12 or more. The fans of the previous games move on and in some cases become developers themselves. That's where we see games like Crimson Desert, Expedition 33 and more come into the picture. These developers were inspired by the old franchises and made their own games with passion. GTA, Elder Scrolls and Halo are now established corporate franchises. Each entry has come out feeling more like it's trying to appease a corporate overlord that's demanding more revenue be generated from a single title instead of creating a one and done game in a timely manner New gamers are also coming along that aren't familiar with said franchises due to the gap in releases. A kid born on the release day for Skyrim is now in high school. They grew up with Skyrim being "that old game that Dad liked". While some may have gotten curious and gone back to experience and enjoy Skyrim (much like I went back to experience and later love Pac-Man and Donkey Kong), many just played whatever the new hotness was. In many cases, that was a cheap or free to play live service title like Fortnite, Roblox or Minecraft that could be experienced on any device they owned. Elder Scrolls VI and other legacy franchises have to deal with these. I think GTA 6 is going to be a massive test for these legacy titles and I don't think it's going to sell as strong as people think. A combination of unfamiliarity with GTA in Gen Alpha and Gen Z and the inflated cost of modern AAA will be a massive deterrent. I'm sure my fellow Millennial and Gen X gamers will buy it...assuming they haven't aged out of the hobby. Sadly, as that terrible Game Rant top 10 🐐 of gaming survey showed, we're becoming a rare breed in the industry.

    @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.

    @joseagu59410157 @GamingAzoozDev @TESOnline Did any of your addons require you to change the game files in any way? If you're playing through steam you can validate your files. I don't want to assume anything though, so what exactly have you done to try and fix this? Then I can see what else you could try.

    @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.

  • Cyllis

    @klobrille Key is, you have to have exclusive games people want to play. That's been the problem with Xbox for over a decade. I think the only game they could make exclusive that would really move the needle is Elder Scrolls 6. And I doubt they would have the stones to do that.

  • PSX12394
    PSX94 (@PSX12394) reported

    @NeonBirdGames All Zenimax multiplat. Fallout/Elder Scrolls/Doom F.Horizon and Sea of Theives because they have done huge numbers everywhere and are semi live service titles. You need staples you can only find on Xbox Halo and Gears should be them. Remove them from day 1 on Game pass also.

    @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.
