Jared Shapiro (@GetFitWithJared) reported@xonebros I think long running franchises like Elder Scrolls, GTA and even my beloved Halo are in for a rude awakening. The gap between their entries is way too wide. We've gone from 3-5 years to 10-12 or more. The fans of the previous games move on and in some cases become developers themselves. That's where we see games like Crimson Desert, Expedition 33 and more come into the picture. These developers were inspired by the old franchises and made their own games with passion. GTA, Elder Scrolls and Halo are now established corporate franchises. Each entry has come out feeling more like it's trying to appease a corporate overlord that's demanding more revenue be generated from a single title instead of creating a one and done game in a timely manner New gamers are also coming along that aren't familiar with said franchises due to the gap in releases. A kid born on the release day for Skyrim is now in high school. They grew up with Skyrim being "that old game that Dad liked". While some may have gotten curious and gone back to experience and enjoy Skyrim (much like I went back to experience and later love Pac-Man and Donkey Kong), many just played whatever the new hotness was. In many cases, that was a cheap or free to play live service title like Fortnite, Roblox or Minecraft that could be experienced on any device they owned. Elder Scrolls VI and other legacy franchises have to deal with these. I think GTA 6 is going to be a massive test for these legacy titles and I don't think it's going to sell as strong as people think. A combination of unfamiliarity with GTA in Gen Alpha and Gen Z and the inflated cost of modern AAA will be a massive deterrent. I'm sure my fellow Millennial and Gen X gamers will buy it...assuming they haven't aged out of the hobby. Sadly, as that terrible Game Rant top 10 🐐 of gaming survey showed, we're becoming a rare breed in the industry.

𝙉𝙄𝙆𝙁𝙊𝙍 (@Nikfor_) reportedNow that it is confirmed Call of Duty will not launch on Game Pass Day One, it naturally makes me think about how this decision could affect The Elder Scrolls VI. CoD is a first party franchise with a lot of microtransactions, so removing it from Day One shows that Microsoft is adjusting how it approaches major releases. Elder Scrolls is one of Xbox’s biggest IPs, and ES6 will almost certainly have a massive budget while being a single player game with far fewer monetisation options than a live service title. Because of that, it is reasonable to wonder whether Microsoft might use a similar strategy there as well. Do you think ES6 could also skip Day One on Game Pass, or is this change truly limited to Call of Duty? I am genuinely curious how you all see this situation. I buy a lot of games myself and I also have Game Pass, so I am looking at it from both perspectives. If live service titles with strong monetisation are difficult to support on Game Pass, it raises interesting questions about how huge single player projects fit into the model. We will see how it develops in the coming months and years. Overall I think the change makes sense, but it also brings up some valid things to think about.

Strixx (@Strikxie) reported@burcewynes @TESOnline by your mmo choices it seems you have no problem paying sub, so yes.

50 Grains of Salt (@MarkTur76042115) reported@DOC_DARK1985 What they gonna say if Elder Scrolls 6 has the same problems??? It's the devs of the port??

()()()()()()()()()() (@Armedgolem) reported@TESOnline night market is great but can u fix your un playable pvp right now the new mythic with the elemental build has ruined pvp 45 k health 34k resistances and 30k crit resistance is 3 shots add macro to it another huge problem u have and its in a unplayable state rn
-
The Black Blaze Collective (@BlackBlazeE) reported@TESOnline @JoeyAKangaroo Yeah let's focus on that rather than actually fixing genuine issues.
-
Silaf (@Asmoden3) reported@TESOnline It's actually a good system but it can be improved. My feedback is to remove actions that require a daily login.
-
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
-
The Dreamsgon (@dreamsleever) reported@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!
-
. (@Poopikinz) reported@TESOnline This is all great, but can you fix control layout B? You don't jump until you Release the thumbstick. Imagine if you didn't jump until you released the face button. It's awful and has been broken for years now.

⛩️Jacob01⛩️ILITIAN LIBTARD DESTROYER (@MAGAJacob01) reported@NikTek @CosmicMatt92 If elder scrolls 6 is great I don't care if it has loading screens, loading screens are even in the top 10 of Starfields problems
-
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.
-
adamska.eth (@Elesoterik) reported@Raven0178 @Swurv__ Did you actually play crimson desert? Lol. It obviously would have elder scrolls abilities and combat because its an elder scrolls game just everything about crimson desert works so much better than elder scrolls games, cell based games are cumbersome to the extreme, I shouldn't need seven loading screens in the same town, you know? I'm just kind of over that. I want more of what crimson desert offered me. And id love it if that came from a studio like bethesda with its rich story and lore, because honestly, they suck at the back end ****. I think everyone UNANIMOUSLY agrees on that, hence why "its not a bug its a feature" its such a well known bethesda meme. Everything they make comes riddled with bugs and issues and we are fine with it because its bethesda, I dont want to be fine with it, I want my cake and I want to eat it too, I want the rich story and I want the amazing engine for it to run on in the background. You can keep paying for ur slop if you want though.

$!|b!r0b! (@silbirobi) reported@StarfieldNews Not advertised as an addition? You're not serious I hope. So simple logic, common sense and standards we can expect don't count anymore? So the cars of future racing games can now have 3 tires? The next Elder Scrolls game don't need swords or magic spells? And older games with less resources and lower hardware requirement just had it because it was advertised? No one can defend that size of laziness and bad work what Xbox have delivered with Starfield and overall since the Game Pass. But maybe that's the problem of the Xbox players: They don't have any expectations and don't know whats possible.
-
Valdenn (@sirvaldenn) reported@Swurv__ True enough about Crimson Desert. Elder Scrolls VI has a Bethesda problem, though. Yeah, it'll make money, but not as much as if it were good. Starfield suffered because people saw and said how abysmal it was. TES VI will have the same issue.

cp pc (@belgian123) reported@TESOnline Unplayable lag everyday and now you want to do crossplay haahahahaha
-
Immortan Joe Mazzulla (@normal_jake_) reported@AF17550 It had its issues and a lot of them were avoidable but as someone who plays a TON of space games I don’t think people gave them enough credit at all. It’s real ******* hard to do what they did lol. This isn’t like making an elder scrolls or fallout, it’s a big technical ask!
-
Nate Da Great (@NateDaGr8Ate8) reported@playstationyesr @sassykitten666 That will fix it because PC and PlayStation people won't get games like elder scrolls 6 etc that'll make em buy xbox
-
Xycofox (@xycofox) reported@BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Going on 3 weeks now since I paid for one month of ******* ESO Plus and you sons of ******* keep escalating it, quit dodging the ************* problem and send me my goddamn money back!
-
Nethilez (@Nethilez) reported@Xylus19 @Dee_Batch @klobrille I see no issue either but that’s the logic. Elder Scrolls became multi platform so I understand if future iterations are as well. As for Sony tactics, Square Enix is backing off because it’s not profitable for them. But it’s more about expectations for each 1st party studio 1/2

SronimirSroban (@SSroban37204) reported@Swurv__ The next elder scrolls game has a previous 4 bethesda games were complete utter ******* dogshit problem

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
-
Darellano (@Darellano344205) reported@BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Why have such a lengthy maintenance period when you still haven't banned the cheaters—the ones using hacks to glitch under the map to gain an unfair advantage in Cyrodiil? And what about the bots farming materials and experience points all across Tamriel?
-
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.
-
V E R S A Y C E (@CreepPhone) reported@TESOnline Of ALL the Vengeance campaigns I hit a giant lag spike and got booted from the entire game during the recent battle at Chal, it's this one, the one where you messed with AOEs.

Jonah (@KeizaalDov) reported@Fa1ko_ @TESOnline Theyre giving us content later lol theyre trying to fix the **** that players like yourself have been bitching about since u35
