    @xonebros The only problem Bethesda has with Elder Scrolls VI is Bethesda, they are their own worst enemies

    @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.

    Trevor Rieger (@trevorriegerxxx) reported

    The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Anniversary Edition developed by Bethesda Game Studios for the Nintendo Switch 2 port added improvements with an update 1.2 in February 2026 such as a new 60 FPS mode, a stable 30 FPS mode, and reduced input lag but it still costs $60 for a 15 year old game.

    @pizzamoney83 @VulpeculaLunae @TESOnline they have too much instance. that the problems. zenimax really overestimate the number of people who play that game. too many time i end up in a 12 player group where the half is in a different night market. we must scream to them to travel to us otherwise they can't find us lol

    @LeonardFrom719 @Burnvolver @humorMEplzz How old are you to talk like you are 5, do you speak to your father and mother that way? Don’t call her a *****? Grow up and stop insulting people just because you feel like it. There are many examples of utterly broken old games on release, like the old elder scrolls, dwarf fortress, super Mario for Nintendo 64, Spyro etc 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

    @TESOnline It's so fun, I haven't been doing anything else. The only two things I see we need are more loot from ALL trials to drop randomly, and please fix the quests/arrows that seem to disappear with no sketch book to draw in, for example. The free house, once unlocked, is awesome!!

  • Nethilez
    Nethilez (@Nethilez) reported

    @Xylus19 @Dee_Batch @klobrille Both Zenimax/Activaion are 1st party but have a legacy of being multi platform. I do believe new IP singleplayer IP should at least be timed exclusive. Though I have no issue if Elder Scrolls is timed for for exclusive, up to them and data

  • Spell_Forged
    Morgaine (@Spell_Forged) reported

    @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 big scale pvp—

    Xbox failure as a console is unforgivable You had Xbox (Halo, Gears, Fable, Forza, Psychonauts, Killer Instinct, Banjo, Conker, etc) + Bethesda (Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Dishonored, Wolfenstein, Doom) + Activision (Call of Duty, Crash, Spyro) + Blizzard (Overwatch, StarCraft, WarCraft, Diablo) = and still produce the worst console of this gen...so unsuccessful you went full third-party publisher....and are STILL a horrible multiplat publisher Xbox has been an experiment proving that Microsoft is unfit for gaming They need to sell their IP's to more worthy companies and **** gaming

    @KentonVarda Morrowind Elder Scrolls was almost liek this... The areas were distinct.. didn't level difficulty based on your character level... and although you could fast travel through certain towns, it was a paid service and didn't go everywhere Atmospherically Morrowind > Oblivion for sure

    @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.

  • ThunderBrush
    Rayph (@ThunderBrush) reported

    @DUSKdev I have no insight on this particular issue but I was the 7th or so artist hired for Elder Scrolls online back when ZOS was considered a sister studio to Bethesda and their company policies were frankly...absurd. Back then working in concept art I sketched everything on pencil/paper and had requested a basic scanner for my desk for months, got fed up and decided to bring in my own only to walk into work the next day to see my entire desk being packed up by IT as they were reading paperwork to fire me for breaking employee-code, thankfully my lead at the time saved my ***. Bethesda is a company/studio that's ran by lawyers and very overzealous leadership first and foremost so something this petty doesn't strike me out of the realm of possibility. I was present for a few town halls when New Vegas was in development and it was fairly palpable that Bethesda main had little love for the New Vegas project.

    @GameOnJesse @DestinLegarie COD will be the first then Elder Scrolls, followed by the next Halo, Gears, etc. Slippery Slope. Everyone saying reduce the price don’t even realize every streaming service has gone up or had features such as 4K streaming.

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

  • 117_GuiltySpark
    117 (@117_GuiltySpark) reported

    @yrulaughing418 @RayKump That’s still part of the issue. It’s why the next Elder Scrolls was announced 8 years ago before taking a backseat to Starfield. Giant game companies can’t dev more than one thing at a time, they’ve don’t have that ability any more apparently.
