Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Starcat is Problematic Medias (@AlmsiviSimp) reported@arthurianmaiden Disliking elder scrolls is a red flag fear not lord vivec will fix this
-
Big John (@judofright) reportedGeForce 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.
-
El Manuel (@nobccash) reported@vrakhiri Mostly vanilla unless there's a QoL mods that fix something I hate Only exception really is Elder Scrolls, even on day 1 of Skyrim I downloaded a few mods
-
Falloutfan3000 (@Macy1517) reported@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”.
-
AI (@WeboQueso) reported@DPermabear @PiggyKropotkinn It’s literally top 10 live service game. You don’t just stop Fortnight, FF14, Wow, Elder Scrolls, warframe, Rivals, Genshin, Rocket League etc. Sony is rtarded they bought what they wanted to end it smh
-
Big Yonk (@TheBiggestYonk) reported@Jetifyed2077 The problem is modern gaming development time being like 7+ years in some cases, and instead of literally just making a different studio, Bethesda would rather take 14+ years to create a new IP + a new Elder Scrolls game before doing the next Fallout. Skyrim was in 2011 lol
-
MHM (@MrHooboMaster) reported@YC_0015 It was the equivelant of Bethesda and Todd Howard announcing Elder Scrolls 6 despite not wanting to for the good PR it would create / save face from their live service (for them Fallout 76)
-
Isayus1 (@IsayusX) reported@TESOnline @XBOXGamePass Please fix the UI if you haven't already so you get the UI corresponding to the mode you're playing(Controller/M&K) not a Frankenstein mixture
-
omnijoel (@omnijoel_) reported@GameRant It will suck for a long time. Do I think there is a world where D3 happens, D2 continues? Yeah, but the mountains would have to move... D2 needs a lot of love to fix and that might just be the issue. (Eververse is also important in that topic... (look at elder scrolls Online))
-
Jeff (@Sylar_N7) reported@OtterRuin @TESOnline he issue is not my original statement, but that you don't understand my original statement. I don't know how to explain it any easier for you bud. Right now in 2026 the 4 original classes and weapons have ALL THE SAME SKILLS. No innovation at all. Boring AF
-
Shifty_Chicken (@chicken_shifty) reported@K__Med Elder Scrolls 6 will be on PS5/6. Why? Paid mods from the creator club thing. Heavy micro transactions of any kind are Service games...I suspect.
-
RichKranium (@JasonCooperrid1) reported@Martina Holy ****. Who ******* cares? Real issues. Bethesda cancelled the Elder Scrolls.
-
𖤐Captain🐣Eggbeard𖤐 (@Cpt_Eggbeard) reported@_Deez_Games I hate that my gut instinct is right every time there's a Bethesda announcement. Me: Sees Fallout standby screen. My gut: Hold on bro, it's just an F76 ad. Me: Sees something Elder Scrolls My gut: Hold on bro, it's just TES online. I'm so sick of games as a service. 🤬
-
Akkusativ (@Akkusativ1) reported@finnoreokastro Crunch is still a problem btw if you know anything about video game devs. Crunching for a company that will fire them after the game finishes. Elder scrolls 6 got announced in 2018 btw
-
☉ Eldred 🜨 (@EldredBD) reported@WifiBee @guitargeminix @LostMemeArchive As an Oblivion enjoyer, I have heard my fill of "Skyrim 2 when?" For the last 15 years. So I get it. I just feel as though I've heard Bethesda people call it "scrolls" before, though usually they say "elder scrolls". I agree its stupid to try to take issue with it.

Accidental Suicide the Clinton Foundation (@truegram) reported@TESOnline Update is more broken then the relationship between a Onlyfans model an her dad an more dead then her dearms.
-
Ma SkullyVT (@Ma_SkullyVT) reported@TESOnline I still try to fix my hdr that looks awful
-
Shane (@geis_shane) reported@RossTweetsGames Stop the fake weirdo confusion all live service everywhere all prior agreements honored….likely big system seller games exclusive 1-2 a year just like PS….pretty sure if you want to play Elder Scrolls 6 on a console better buy a Xbox
-
Dan (@CrikeyItsDan) reported@The_CrapGamer Xbox COULD be the only console that plays. Halo. Gears. Forza. Fallout. Elder Scrolls. Fable. CoD. (eventually) And more! Exclusives weren't the problem, it's that Xbox didn't have consistently great ones like Sony did. Now they could, and they gave up before even trying!
-
ⱮìçհąҽӀ φҽʂąҟ (@rieper47) reported@Jetifyed2077 The problem with the Elder Scrolls having classes was the whole "Play how you like" thing. If they had done DnD style rules, the Class system would have worked. But as it is...
-
sukru tikves (@stikves) reported@chaosprimeZ The problem is... they won't be getting those many XBOX exclusives on the PS5 Even if XBOX hardware is insufficient, PS5 is also nowhere near to sustain a 3rd party Microsoft Gaming They will shut down most of the studios, and will only focus on CoD/Forza/Fallout/Elder Scrolls
-
Underhive Scum ☠🖕☠ (@UnderhiveScum) reported@TESOnline How about fixing Night Market issues (can't turn in Dailies, can't purchase from Faction Vendor, not earning Favor AT ALL!) and the Group Finder/Dungeon Finder/Home Tours is completely down..
-
Neon Bird Games (@NeonBirdGames) reported@GameOverThirty @HoegLaw Case in point: Elder Scrolls VI Most people are already jumping on the idea it’d fall under the “single player, therefore exclusive” idea, but Bethesda games are really more broad platforms themselves with mods and such like a “live service” would be
-
Ash Witch (@AshPizzaWitch) reported@ShitpostRock2 There's a lot honestly for me FF7-9 Ape Escape 1 Original 3 Spyro and Crash Chrono Trigger Armored Core 1 Star Fox Super Mario World StarCraft Warcraft Original Sonic 1-2 Original God of War 1-2 FF X Pokemon Gold/Silver Halo 1-3 Elder Scrolls Morrowind
-
Sparky (@Reagent_Sparky) reported@SynthPotato If elder scrolls 6 ever comes out i feel like we'll have the same issue cuz i don't think anyone wants to compete with the 2nd largest most anticipated open world game
-
Aarameshi Starwind (@Aarameshi) reported@TESOnline Yea but do you still make us respec on every login? Id be willing to comeback for this but im tired of having to respec all the time.
-
svet (@LikeSvetlana) reported@Amazing_ParaBoy first, the nemesis system was never patented from elder scrolls. you’re thinking of middle-earth. second, “blueprint” is used in a colloquial sense to refer to the bare-bones idea of something. there isnt any issue with how people are using it
-
Dannydangersenpai (@dannyboywood1) reported@TESOnline Why can't I sign in, I apparently already downloaded everything
-
Foxhound_N10 (@Foxhound_N10) reported@TESOnline @TheJackalAgenda What I want to see happen with ESO as the game continues to evolve is the pure classes actually to FEEL Close to the lore. Each should have a key strength and weakness. The entire combat system should revolve around that, not a meta. A Sorc should be the king of ranged AOE/Bombs, weak up close, or no shields. A Nightblade should be the king of single-target damage and deleting any player (burst), scaled from their health/armor if they take the time to hunt undetected. But it's the sacrifice of being a glass cannon. An Arcanist should be the king of ranged single-target damage. And a Dragonknight should be the king of toe-to-toe battles, one-on-one, but not as bursty, but very strong defensively, as the standard well-balanced of all, but not superior to the rest. Right now, you have kill screens filled with me, too, DKs, and it's like watching the Clone Wars in Cyro. But each of these characters should be a toolbox in its own right for vet players. Is there a necro tank that refuses to die? Grab the Arcanist beam to the face, huge DOT, and problem solved. Are there nightblades all over the little village? Grab the sorc and start raining huge AOE’s to reveal and drop. A pesky Templar that won't go down? Grab the Dragonknight. But the combat system has felt for years like it was tailored to the sets and mythics rather than to specific characters to upgrade your toolkit. I was deeply disappointed in this video when Asmon who I enjoy flat out walked away from camera for two whole minutes during your game showcase. Then I had to look up why. And apparently, he criticized the combat system in 2019, saying it was clunky and dropped the game entirely, though he noted it was beautiful. That should concern you. These things should make sense to the average player. Feel like a quiet solo night hunting alone? Nightblade. Feel like brawling it out in a fistfight with a large group. DK. Want to try ranged bombing? Arcanist. But tie it all together, please make the story and the battles make sense with the combat instead of making one way overpowered character (DK), everyone copies, and you get the same kill screen. Otherwise, you are going to turn average NEW players away, and I really love this game a lot to go forever, especially all the friends I've made :) See where I'm going? I don't want to play the meta, I want to play what fits my playstyle and themes for that mood. Why wouldn't a High Elf magika Sorc be the best for PVP instead of stamina? So keep going, EVEN if it ruffles the feathers of the sweaties who don't want change or to keep it the same old same. Those people retire and need to be replaced over time anyway, and you want to sell more shinys, right? Please pass it on @TESOnline

goregram (@goregram) reported@TESOnline new mythic still broken for pvp an i cant even go to other CP campaigns to play with friend's since its alliance locked an you got rid of the rest. well not paying for eso plus for this trash. guess time to find another game. any suggestions?
