⬜️⬜️⬜️⬜️⬜️⬜️ (@VanillaCyclone) reported@TESOnline I feel like crossplay is a waste of time it’s just gonna cause more issues for the devs
-
Peyote_Wolf (@Peyote_Wolf_TV) reported@TESOnline Will vengeance fix the 10+ yr old server issues in Cyro or BG? Or just a small revamp to ui so ppl can say.. oooh thats cool lol but servers will still be all fudged up
-
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.

Accidental Suicide the Clinton Foundation (@truegram) reported@DocHollidayRezd @TESOnline I would try the FTC because there contract is unevenly inforced if not at all in some cases. An I can't have a contract saying mantance included an not fix the pipes when the burst but kick you out for complaining about me not fixing the pipes
-
Zero-Space (@beardedreviewer) reported@maxdeploy @WarhorseStudios Bethesda made Fallout and Elder Scrolls. What's the issue?
-
Zendarius (@Zen_Darius) reported@Asmoden3 @TESOnline It's the replacement for daily/weekly endeavor seals and probably some of the missing daily login rewards
-
SenjutsuSage (@Senninsage) reported@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.
-
Trevor Rieger (@trevorriegerxxx) reportedThe 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.
-
Timdog (@AmericanTimdog) reportedIf xbox loses day and date on gamepass xbox can have Doom Fallout Elder Scrolls Halo Forza Gears Overwatch StarCraft Diablo Crash Tony Hawk Fable Quake Wolfenstein As console exclusives
-
E (@Cyllis) reported@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.

Michael Walton (@WanderingDrengr) reported@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

sky_comet (@skycomet1) reported@foxgirlfrot you could fix me,,,,,, yapping about dumb elder scrolls lore while being held WOULD fix me
-
Ron Paul🇺🇲 (@alienteslax) reported@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?
-
Truong (@Get_In_Redmen) reported@TESOnline Please fix the issues with night market instances. Skirmishes are active but everyone I go to one 1 out of 5 times there not a single soul even though the group finder is full of them. I’m a solo player that don’t like to group. Am I SOL?
-
BattledadTV (@Sambei_Gaming) reported@BethesdaSupport @TESOnline anyone else suddenly getting the 201 error?
-
Alex (@AleexLSC) reported@TESOnline im having issues, everytime i try to log in through steam and when im in game it says connection to server timed out please try again this is on PC NA server, this has never happend before and ive been playing for a long time, can i get any help with this?

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.
-
Darellano (@Darellano344205) reported@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
-
Granbul (@Granbul1) reported@AndresRestart I think the problem with the Star Fox designs is that certain angles and poses make them look really bad. It's like making an Elder Scrolls character who looks great from the front, but then you do the side profile and see that you really ****** up.
-
Chris W (@Chris_GWW) reported@Swurv__ Crimson Desert isn't an Elder Scrolls killer but it's showing us what could... People say Skyrim holds up but I can't play it again without a few thousand mods, Lorerim/Nolvus completely revamp the game to a modern standard and I can't go back to vanilla. I enjoyed it in it's time but it's dead for anyone that's already been there done that... let's be honest. Bethesda has nothing to worry about on sales and player numbers on release day but they should be worried about retention. I can't play Starfield it's the same old jank it just looks a little better but in a few years once Bethesda tosses it aside and modders do their magic I'll probably put a thousand hours more on it. I'll pre order it the morning of release and wait a couple weeks before the refund deadline to play it, see if Bethesda has improved or not because I can't do another plain three slash bethesda game, I just can't it's 30 years old. It took them until starfield just to figure out ladders... LADDERS meanwhile FO4 modders made functional ladders in their engine they said couldn't do it lol that should be telling us something. The lore will save it, the lore is what most of us care about, we live with the bethesda jank but we shouldn't have to. They also forced their lore writer out, that's a problem...

X-Rosh Te Maky (@Te_Maky) reported@BethesdaSupport @TESOnline It seems North America PS also is having issues whit favor factions and night market.... Any hope for solution or it is too early in the morning to ask?

Rocky/Roxy ♿️ 🏳️🌈 🐉 🐲 🌈 (He,Him,They,Them) (@Rocky2815golden) reported@summergamefest i don't really have a definitive fav xbox franchise but here's a few of my fav xbox franchise in no piticular order. halo, banjo - kazooie, spyro the dragon, crash bandicoot, skylanders, fable & the elder scrolls.

Ron Paul🇺🇲 (@alienteslax) reported@magicmacabre @TESOnline I'm on console and I do lag so idk what to tell you.
-
Jake Forster (@JakeForste10939) reported@StarfieldGame Uninstalled again. Sick to death of Bathesda bringing out DLCs before fixing **** that is broken. I swear you better not **** elder scrolls up this much
-
Hopelessly Addicted Tarnished (@Minmatar0) reported@JezCorden idk MS has been doing well on PC. lots of their games sell. PC gamepass subs are quite high and many of their service games like Sea of Thieves, Elder scrolls online, Grounded etc pull in way more than sonys gaas games on PC. so what would exclusivity accomplish?
-
Doomer Fuggs hier mit Klarname! (@nichtnoki) reported@RonnieBlaz3 @TESOnline I play currently on PC/EU and I played on Xbox/EU till 2019. PvP were always laggy. It was the worst in 2017! The problem was the netcode and not so much the servers. Servers became better though. Much less problems with connectivity and rarely lags in PvE raids and stuff. PvP still shity though bc, like I said, netcode! To much garbage requests vom the server leads to too much data that has to be handled. They should really redo that from scratch with a tighter code. So better no usage of AI bs. They will probably not do this o.o"

S T A N L E Y (@ImJakeberry) reported@bethesda when am I gonna be reimbursed for “the elder scrolls oblivion remastered” the game barely runs and hasn’t had a update to fix anything.
-
Foxhound_N10 (@Foxhound_N10) reported@TESOnline The NM is 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!!
-
hibernicus (@hibernicus_) reported@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
