naruto0204991 (@naruto020499) reported@Draven_X_23 @Dexerto You really think Elder Scrolls 6 is going to be good after Fallout 76, Starfield, and the Oblivion remaster which is still broken?
-
Shucks (@82hoosier) reported@BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Please fix Starfield Terran Armada. I own premium edition and it won't let me play the game because it says i don't own it. Your own website says it is included in premium and that only those without it need to pay. Furthermore even premium isn't showing i paid for it
-
𝓜𝓪𝓻𝓴 (@RoninTaizen) reportedBlame on Bethesda and their goddamn creation engine. I wouldn't be surprised if The Elder Scrolls VI is gonna have problems too and don't tell me it won't just because it's a ******* updated creation engine. Also, I really think Bethesda likes to **** on Playstation somehow.🤔
-
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.
-
Xycofox (@xycofox) reported@TESOnline Why don't the Devs focus on fixing the goddamn billing issue. ************* pay you but you don't give them what they paid for.
-
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!!
-
TheHotnessZN (@ScottyDo48) reported@TESOnline None because the “talk to the curator” quest step is broken
-
Trevor Rieger (@trevorriegerxxx) reportedThe Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Anniversary Edition developed by Bethesda Game Studios for the Nintendo Switch 2 port added improvements with an update 1.2 in February 2026 such as a new 60 FPS mode, a stable 30 FPS mode, and reduced input lag but it still costs $60 for a 15 year old game.
-
Zendarius (@Zen_Darius) reported@Asmoden3 @TESOnline It's the replacement for daily/weekly endeavor seals and probably some of the missing daily login rewards
-
ds 116r (@noant66777) reported@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
-
Fabio D.H. (@TheSystem_0) reported@LeonardFrom719 @Burnvolver @humorMEplzz How old are you to talk like you are 5, do you speak to your father and mother that way? Don’t call her a *****? Grow up and stop insulting people just because you feel like it. There are many examples of utterly broken old games on release, like the old elder scrolls, dwarf fortress, super Mario for Nintendo 64, Spyro etc etc
-
Atlas Air 🇦🇺 (@AtlasAirx) reported@MedeirosDa61624 @TESOnline Exactly, it’s your experience. Unfortunately it’s not everyone’s experience. It doesn’t take much to see all the forum, reddit, facebook posts and most importantly what you hear in your community. It’s a growing issue across servers but I’m sure some are worse than others.
-
K' the Barbarian (@KtheBarbar46169) reported@JeffsawHomes @IGN All while removing CoD, the biggest game in the service, setting a 1 year window for it's release, which is pointless for a mostly online game that does yearly releases. This also sets a precedent for other large games to not be included Day 1. Elder Scrolls VI, Halo 7, E-Day?
-
gunitgunit98 (@Gunitgunit98) reported@BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Crossplay or not we pay for a service and this maintenance means most people can’t play today
-
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.
-
Bad Wolf Sultan MyWolverine❤️🔥MyPrincessPeach (@BadWolfSultan) reported@xonebros The only problem Bethesda has with Elder Scrolls VI is Bethesda, they are their own worst enemies
-
annamar (@_frogchamp) reportedI play fallout when I have depressed mood, red dead when I’m physically injured, and elder scrolls when I have a spiritual problem. No I don’t have “Steam” I look gay
-
Jared Shapiro (@GetFitWithJared) reported@Xbox_SUPERFAN The thing with COD versus other first party games is they have 3 studios working full speed to crank out a $400+ million AAA game annually. Halo isn't doing that. Elder Scrolls isn't doing that. Forza isn't doing that. Those games on Day 1 are are all big value adds for Game Pass. If they remove them, they're going to see massive churn. I'm assuming behind the scenes they either didn't see a big enough bump in subscribers for COD or they saw a lot of people sub for a month or two, only play COD, then bounce. If that's the case, and you have polls all over the internet saying drop COD and make it cheaper, then I could see the business sense there. It doesn't make sense to risk subs and cut other first party games from the service, but there's always a chance the economics change
-
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
-
Prin Lowe (@prin_lowe) reported@Der_Kernel_ Pretty sure it's more cope that modders will fix whatever mess Bethesda shits out but modders never bothered with Bethesda's last slop release so I'm not sure why anyone is coping that they'll fix Elder Scrolls 6.
-
Morgaine (@Spell_Forged) reported@TESOnline If devs really want this game to survive you should add content players actually want not random bs and battle passes. Give us new races like Ka Po Tun, Tsaesci, Tang Mo, Dremora, Maomer… New classes instead of all the convoluted and unbalanced subclassing. Fix PVP Cloaks Etc
-
Gilbs (@GilbertoRondo16) reported@NikTek @CosmicMatt92 It would still be a huge problem having to load to enter every single house, dungeon, castle, whatever, this engine is abysmal dogshit, and they should have changed it after Skyrim, a have zero faith in the next Elder Scrolls game, unfortunatelly.
-
Big John (@judofright) reportedGeForce now is trash. Elder scrolls online keeps getting this weird bug. It's the wrong button binding and I can't fix it. Too many problems with these streaming services.
-
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.
-
♡Kara (@Hexodyte) reported@CodyCoo15122985 @Swurv__ Tainted grail is one thing but if you think that the witcher of all franchises satiates the fix left by the elder scrolls then I seriously can't fathom what you like about the games to begin with, they're literally polar opposites nothing alike in the slightest
-
JenJen 💙s CK20 (@GeekyGlamGamer) reported@TESOnline Please don't neglect solo players. Last golden pursuit made it hard to finish solo, something that wasnt an issue before recently. I am a caretaker of elderly parents I don't get to team up & play in groups often because of this.
-
Nethilez (@Nethilez) reported@Xylus19 @Dee_Batch @klobrille Both Zenimax/Activaion are 1st party but have a legacy of being multi platform. I do believe new IP singleplayer IP should at least be timed exclusive. Though I have no issue if Elder Scrolls is timed for for exclusive, up to them and data
-
Morgaine (@Spell_Forged) reported@Pirat_Nation Using an old *** engine The HORRIBLE train wreck Fallout 76 was not just as a game but the entire fraud and bunch of irl issues around it. Then starfield… People saying they dont even expect Elder scrolls 6 to be good anymore is a realistic mindset. Bethesda WAS, but isnt now.
-
Ron Paul🇺🇲 (@alienteslax) reported@magicmacabre @TESOnline I'm on console and I do lag so idk what to tell you.

⛩️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
