  @TESOnline it’s ridiculous that when I’m in a dungeon, people keep pulling me to the final boss when I’m trying to do something for the quest and when pulled past the prompt or boss needed for the quest that it bugs it for me. Fix your game 😭

  @shapeformer You and others are conflating two different things. Xbox using exclusives again and Xbox rebuilding its business around the traditional exclusivity driven console model. Look at Xbox's actual economics. Microsoft's FY26 results have shown gaming revenue declining, hardware revenue falling by more than 30% year over year in consecutive reported quarters, and content and services declining as well. That's not a signal demonstrating that consumers want Xbox hardware at scale. And that decline started while they had exclusives. So if Microsoft has concluded that exclusives are the answer and is truly "going back to basics," why hasn't it actually committed its biggest franchises to that strategy? Right now they've only committed Gears: E-Day in 2026 and Clockwork Revolution in 2027. They've said more exclusives are planned, but they haven't announced this pipeline you're assuming exists. Matt Booty has actually described the approach as case-by-case. And here is where your Elder Scrolls and Halo argument loses traction. You're saying the next Halo and TES VI will be exclusive. Based on what??? A hunch?? Because Xbox hasn't announced either one as an Xbox console exclusive. Asha Sharma literally just talked about seeing a live playthrough of TES VI and praised its scale and story. That was a perfect opportunity to say, "And this will be a defining exclusive for Xbox." She didn't. If TES VI exclusivity is already part of this supposedly obvious return to basics, why hasn't Xbox said so? Why are you and others making a commitment on Xbox's behalf that Xbox itself hasn't made? The same applies to Halo. Until Microsoft announces the next Halo as console-exclusive, you're using your prediction of Microsoft's future strategy as evidence that the strategy already exists. That's called circular reasoning and it holds zero weight. And there's an economic reason for Xbox to remain flexible. Xbox hardware is declining substantially. Microsoft owns enormous IP with potential customers on PlayStation, Nintendo and PC. Making a game like TES VI exclusive means voluntarily giving up access to part of that addressable market in the hope that enough people migrate into the Xbox ecosystem at scale to compensate for it. That's a business calculation, not an automatic win simply because "exclusives sell consoles". Today the evidence shows a hybrid strategy. Two exclusives to give Xbox hardware differentiation, case-by-case decisions on single-player games, continued multiplatform releases, and multiplayer/live-service games remaining multiplatform. And your claim that most Xbox ports don't make their porting costs back still needs a source. That's a financial claim. Show Microsoft's costs and revenues for those ports. Otherwise you're treating another assumption as fact. Ultimately you're just arguing what you believe Xbox's strategy will become, "back to basics". Where I'm talking about what they're actually committed to doing and what they've communicated to investors.

  How about Bethesda next? Need the new Elder Scrolls and want them to drop fallout for a bit. Also, why not let the community mod/dev fix Star Citizen while their at it lol

  @Kofigiration @Character1n2ern Moral ******* won't work with me. If it's weird then don't do it. Calling someone a criminal over lines/polygons is my issue. It is the same as blowing someone's brains out in a FPS, stabbing someone to death in Elder scrolls. Also you know anime has always been weird right?

  Is Halo 7 out yet? (@Halo_HypeGuy) reported 38 minutes ago

  @lastchalice @XBOXTIMDOG And that's exactly why Xbox should make Elder Scrolls and other non-live service games full exclusives. If they go all in like the 360 era, Sony is cooked with their 1sr party network in shambles, most 3rd parties going full multiplatform and player trust dissolved.

  If it's not a big deal, why patch an 11 or 15 year old game? The truth of the matter, this is likely to become a huge issue where Bethesda is going to try and milk money from mods. I have very little hope left for Elder Scrolls VI, at this point. Bethesda has fallen.

  @GamzlyTKD @JezCorden Agree with most of that but not the side chick platform, there's a world where they play their cards right they acquire more users even via consoles. The problem is they haven't being playing their cards right. Elder Scrolls isn't enough - They need Fallout etc etc

  Graham Smith (@SuperSmithBros) reported 50 minutes ago

  @St1ka @nameresu Again, if we look at actual development time its more like 8 years. They also arent forcing larger budgets and dev times on other devs at all. There are probably 4 or 5 franchises in total that do this. Elder Scrolls, Cyber Punk, Witcher and Rockstar games. Cyber Punk also made the mistake of releasing too early (which cost them dearly). I have no problem with that for these franchise (although elder scrolls is dragging and potentially because Bethesda track record isnt what is once was). Literally every other franchise does things differently... The ones that do it yearly burn out and lose customers from repetition. Other devs focus on more unique experiences. Each to their own.

  @JamieMoranUK They do cost more you're absolutely right but there are some successful live service games out there Just look at Bethesda and how long they've done Fallout 76 An elder scrolls Online those games have a ton of players Sea of Thieves did at one point I'm not sure what it is now

  @SynthPotato the issues with Starfield and Creation Engine was that *everything* was treated the same way interior spaces are treated in Fallout and Elder Scrolls. I have way less of an issue with loading screens when theres a full open map to walk around in between.

  Soup (@The_Soupinator) reported 56 minutes ago

  @WinC_Gaming Yeah that's the big problem. Exclusives mean nothing unless they have must-have games (released regularly) to back that plan up. Halo hasn't been that for a LONG time and they're going to need more than just Elder Scrolls 6 which is still years off.

  If their work was as good as they claimed it to be, they'd have no issues finding jobs at other game companies. Also, in actually interesting news, Elder Scrolls 6 is in a "playable" state just based on this headline.

  A lot of people are focusing on the "poor shaming" aspect But it's more of an industry issue. $80-100 for GTA, Elder Scrolls, massive games like that, sure maybe. $80-$100 for a 4-8 hour story game or worse a 20 hour bloated with busy work to justify the dollar to hour games. No

  @Opethftw @pcgamer Got you talking about it 9 years later. The dev team of 76 is a studio that works specifically on live service games. It’s not people in bgs that could be working on the next elder scrolls or fallout.
