    @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.

    @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?

    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.

    @MrRealHumour @xMBGx They would be stupid to ever make them exclusive my point was IF they did Sony would be in freefall They have no alternative to - call of duty - crash or spyro (unless sly or Jak returns) - elder scrolls - gears - Forza - clockwork revolution

    @bethesda the problem about Starfield fallout and elder scrolls is every time they update one they break the game so the gamers jump to another Bethesda game until they update and break that game. I caught the Bethesda triangle.

    @inkedraven_eso @TESOnline None. Too dangerous. Kicu-Arc prefers drunk-dancing in taverns and becoming the local problem instead. 🦊

    The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered from Bethesda Softworks still suffers from severe technical issues including persistent crashes and performance degradation over a year after its April 22, 2025 launch.

    @maxdeploy @WarhorseStudios Bethesda made Fallout and Elder Scrolls. What's the issue?

  • omnijoel_
    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))

  • DarkJaysonVR
    Darkjayson (@DarkJaysonVR) reported

    @LostMemeArchive Bethesda had no issue with Mojang naming their game Scrolls they objected to the trademark they tried to file which would have conflicted with their elder scrolls games and every other game that used the word scrolls in it.

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Crossplay or not we pay for a service and this maintenance means most people can’t play today

    Accidental Suicide the Clinton Foundation (@truegram) reported

    @Foxhound_N10 @TESOnline I guess you haven't played in awhile then because the new mythic mixed 2 outher sets 1shots "everyone" in a millisecond less then 1 frame in cyro just go look at the eso forums. An I don't have faith they'll fix it or have more broken thing's that make ppl quit next update.

    @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.

    @ZikadaPrime Pulling PlayStation and Switch ports of Minecraft, Overwatch, Elder Scrolls and Call of Duty among others out of service would be able to help Xbox.

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline last “maintenance”caused server issues on my end. Even more than usual -Micro freezes/stutters in all zones includes PvP/BG where in PvP Freezes/Stutters is a massive issue -Grass textures constantly popping in/out causing frame drops -FIX THE SERVER! -4070Ti super i513600k 32gb

    Ngl, the part i miss most about being a technician is the problem solving. Like I'd have both earbuds in listening to elder scrolls lore for hours straight while seeing what my retarded coworkers ****** up (usually hooking the waterlines backwards or the power(fire hazard)

  • Get_In_Redmen

    @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?

    @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

  • SW3EN
    Mars (@SW3EN) reported

    @lohipuikko @pssucks80155 @Nick_Marseil Timed exclusives solves this problem IMO. Gears E-Day? 12 month Xbox Exclusive. Fable? 12 month Xbox Exclusive. Fallout 5 & Elder Scrolls 6? 12 months only on Xbox/PC. You get my drift

  • ScottyDo48

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

    @xycofox @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline I know that feeling well ***, they did the same to me in march, I spent a week putting tickets in and asking on here to be told I had to ask Sony directly for the refund, I got it sorted within an hour by Sony. Bethesda have been aware of this problem for a while.

    @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

    @ykaiketsu Yup. Had dope leveling system that was even used in the elder scrolls. Actually had characters and interesting world. The issue is the grind but just adjusting some figures make it great

    @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”.

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline The only way to fix my memory leak issue is to log out and log back in.

    @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!!!

  • xycofox
    Xycofox (@xycofox) reported

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Everything about ESO is broken. Last month I renewed my ESO+ and never got it. ESO reps cast the blame on Sony and the Players. Tons of players affected and have yet to be refunded. 8 years of playing the game I finally gave it up. It pisses me off to even see the game.
