  • JRPyznar iamtylerdurden1 (@JRPyznar) reported

    @Mr_InfernoGamez @timely_u Like i said if u want to make the issue time of exclusivity rather than telling ppl the actual dates justify Bethesda n AB. Sony took a yr on SH2 but MS took Fallout, DOOM, Elder Scrolls, Crash, etc forever. Idc if it's an acquisition u can buy pubs n stay multiplat see BUNGIE...

  • Lokey_DS Lokey Dark Souls (@Lokey_DS) reported

    To be honest, if not for the localization problems, Souls would be viewed as one of the more consistent/reliable RPG IPs. Your Dragon Ages or Elder Scrolls thrive on unreliable narrator and (retcons) disparate perspectives. Souls just have a story to tell and do it.

  • a12Gameover a12Gameover (@a12Gameover) reported

    @LoneVaultWander Games like Fallout and Elder Scrolls are ******* huge, which is why I don't have a problem with seeing bugs (besides game breaking bugs or exploits used to make an unfair advantage against other players) it takes a lot of work and time to make a world space this large

  • annathepiper Angela Korra'ti (@annathepiper) reported

    In other news I'll lament this in more depth in my Morrowind post, but let me note briefly here that playing ESO got me into a bad habit of NOT REMEMBERING I NEED TO SAVE MY DAMN GAME when I'm playing any other Elder Scrolls game. If that game is Morrowind, this is a PROBLEM. 😣

  • Fimbulbulr Sage Fimbulþulr (@Fimbulbulr) reported

    @loserchik67 @TESOnline that did actually fix it for a while, was able to play for a bit last night but today, software environment more or less the same and its dropping constantly. supposedly its suppose to be addressed in the next incremental patch in 2 weeks or so

  • ReoBarchetta Réo (@ReoBarchetta) reported

    @TESOnline I want to say this is what happens when people who don't work with the general public in the service industry challenge someone who does to a drinking contest.

  • SeraphsRose Seraphs Rose (@SeraphsRose) reported

    @TESOnline @BethesdaSupport what's with ESO since the patch this week? Extreme lag, frequent crashes to my dashboard, it's getting ridiculous now, DCed 3 times in a trial, can't get world bosses done. #xboxseriesx

  • lady_roxy01 Roxy Fox (@lady_roxy01) reported

    @BethesdaSupport elder scrolls online unplayable on Xbox in U.K. since update! Trying to do vet arenas and losing my score and entire run cos of constant lag and then crashes

  • pwnderland Wicker Woman, Esq. (@pwnderland) reported

    @TESOnline Game crashing to desktop without error message. Can't play at all.

  • Rentekabond Mark Shaver (@Rentekabond) reported

    @StevieJasonD @FursAndBots @IGN 1. My issue with his (SE) response was that it's a dumb one. 2. The post I was responding to was 'specifically' about black characters. 3. Elder Scrolls is irrelevant. 4. I do care more about black rep as that's far more sparce and meaningful to me personally. Add AS to ES too.

  • TravisRenegade TravisRenegade (@TravisRenegade) reported

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline I keep getting unexpected internal error message I’ve restarted my laptop, repair the launcher, moved the saved variables and addons folder as well as user settings and addons text files to desktop, even validated the game files on steam, and I still get it & submitted a ticket.

  • DDustinC Dustin Ciesiolka (@DDustinC) reported

    @PaulTassi As an Xbox boi, you were never wrong. Where's trailers for Fable? Avowed? Elder Scrolls 6? Or any new IP? Starfield is coming but that's really it, plus it's bethesda so expect bugs at launch. Halo came out the gate hot but dropped the ball with the live service.

  • Fimbulbulr Sage Fimbulþulr (@Fimbulbulr) reported

    @TESOnline BARELY ANY BECASUE YOUR CRACK DEV TEAM SO EXPERTLY RELEASED ANOTHER BROKEN AF PATCH

  • Wh00tyMc8008 Fine. Whooty McBoob it is. (@Wh00tyMc8008) reported

    So, I either want to get back into Elder Scrolls Online or finally get onto FFXIV. The problem is that I hate playing just one game for any extended amount of time 🤔

  • DelsaberFalz Delsaber Falz (@DelsaberFalz) reported

    @moatxsx mark my words on one thing. a starfield will be made bad intentionally so the players fix their work for them. just like they do with Skyrim or fallout 4. I don't know how they ever managed fallout 76 or elder scrolls online.

  • PauloAl98453409 Paulo Alexandre (@PauloAl98453409) reported

    @TESOnline Enter ingame. Disconnect Enter ingame. Disconnect Enter ingame, select char...Disconnect How in hell we enter in tavern?!?! Fix the dam game.

  • MotheroftheDawn MotheroftheDawn (@MotheroftheDawn) reported

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline @TESOnline idk if this is relevant but since the update has cannot get my mini map addon to work. ( votan’s). I keep getting a UI error. I’ve turned on n off addons, reloaded, reinstalled etc. I’ve run outta ideas. Anyone else have any?

  • IamOtah Blink (@IamOtah) reported

    @TESOnline Fix your game

  • Dalitrox Dalitrox (@Dalitrox) reported

    @LotusOfDoom @TESOnline I tru on DOS and it is a pain. But really worth trying. Especially that from time to time I have to clear saves beside latest one because Daggerfall like to be a bit laggy and can crash. And some enemies like Lich are terrible. But still in my opinion it is worth trying.

  • BryDub90 Bryce Wilson (@BryDub90) reported

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline I keep getting a login error that says an unexpected internal error has occurred, tried repairing from the launcher and it’s still doing it

  • loserchik67 Samantha (@loserchik67) reported

    @Fimbulbulr @TESOnline i dont know if you have tried this, but i had the same issue and i had to disable node detection in my add ons in the main menu.

  • HistPubSex AJ Earl, public sex historian 🔞 (@HistPubSex) reported

    @TESOnline Love that you're having fun btw a large chunk of your PC playerbase is being told we have to wait _at least_ two weeks for a hypothetical fix for the no load CTD issue that you've acknowledged is an issue on your end Fun fun fun, let's all have fun.

  • dudedisgruntled Dude Disgruntled (@dudedisgruntled) reported

    @TESOnline Tails of Tribute tutorial is broken on PS5.

  • pwnderland Wicker Woman, Esq. (@pwnderland) reported

    @Smoky196713 @TESOnline I can't play either. In five times logging in, I'm still running down a single switch-back in Western Skyrim. I get booted completely out with no warning or error message. It SUCKS

  • Rev1g_YouTube Alex (@Rev1g_YouTube) reported

    @TESOnline Maybe you could fix this game instead of sponsoring girls with big boobs on Twitch who don't even give a **** about your game. Maybe you should care more about your community who actually plays and enjoys your game
