    @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.

    @brockpierson Elder Scrolls Online, Skyrim or Morrowind or Oblivion, Mass Effect Legendary, Witcher 3, or Cyberpunk 2077. The issue with doing it 12 hours a day if an MMO would be downtime due to maintenance!

    @luscielia Elder scrolls 6… I’ve been waiting 15 years for this game and I would crawl over broken glass just to meet the man who was lucky enough to sell his soul for the elder scrolls 6

  • StephenMcKellep
    Stormermia (@StephenMcKellep) reported

    @TESOnline I would suggest for killing enemies in specific zones, please enable delves and public dungeons. This will prevent issues because over world mobs respawn so slowly and the campers are furious if anyone even looks at the mobs their camping.

    @TESOnline If Vengeance is your answer to the pvp issues that plague endgame, then do us all a favour please, Make it a separate entity and just leave what we have had - alone. If people want to play a slower game, non cp server - then let them. If they want Icereach - let them.

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

  • BigJK123123
    Josh (@BigJK123123) reported

    @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.

    @ZeniMax_Online The Elder Scrolls Online. It's been 25 days this issue has been going on. Previous tickets have been either cancelled or put on hold, your team is stating that it's been pushed to a "smaller" team. I paid for 1 month of ESO plus, never got it....

  • Bojanglablonic
    Bojanglatron (@Bojanglablonic) reported

    @LilithLovett Current Triple A meta is multiplayer shooters with live service and ranking systems, unfortunately. Elder Scrolls 6 is on hold till Todd figures out how to make it a multiplayer shooter. Let's hope he learns from Fallout 76.

    @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.

  • fllady68

    @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.

    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.

    Luminous Beings are We… (@Lordofsparta) reported

    @tphill779 @TESOnline Yea same here. Ran most of the dailies but not the boss quests there wasn’t enough folks around to get a group. Had no issues on a vamp nb with high regen sneaking around for the other quests

    @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.

  • fivetide
    fivetide (@fivetide) reported

    Bethesda packaged and shipped The Elder Scrolls themselves They learned how to assemble boxes inserts and use the heat gun They spent time shrink-wrapping the games themselves Bethesdas hands-on approach shows commitment to quality control but also means delays for eager fans Bethesda wrapping games themselves while others outsource If you are still waiting for your copy dont blame the postal service blame Bethesda for doing it all themselves

    @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!!!

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline @BethesdaSupport, do you suppose it might be time to fix the All the Worlds a Stage bug in FO76?

    @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?

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline 10+ yrs. BG/Cyro servers has been absolutely atrocious on PC/NA! for that 10+ yrs we have asked for a fix to the lag and in some cases Full on freeze for a good 15-20sec. Instead of adding content to these servers how bout we actually fix it(Maintenance)

  • da_asmodai
    Nicholas Hanson (@da_asmodai) reported

    I have LOTS of ideas but probably either an Elder Scrolls style open world game with procedural terrain and dungeon generaition, AI agent NPCs so their schedules were more dynamic and they had unlimited voiced dialog options. Or a MMO that fixes all the things I think are broken in them.

    @joseagu59410157 @TESOnline If it's not happening in mass, on a predictable basis, then chances are, it's something about your system that is causing the problem.

    @JeffsawHomes @IGN All while removing CoD, the biggest game in the service, setting a 1 year window for it's release, which is pointless for a mostly online game that does yearly releases. This also sets a precedent for other large games to not be included Day 1. Elder Scrolls VI, Halo 7, E-Day?
