    @kojimaicmatters I played the GBA version of FF2, and it was the only one I didn't beat. I got about 3/4ths through, but I just couldn't stand the way you gained stats. Probably annoyed me more than most because it was like retreading my issues with the Elder Scrolls games skills all over again.

    @Jorden1506 The only part where it could be lackluster is if you go by exclusives. The overall output of the studios has been great. Over 10 live-service games with constant updates; Diablo 4, Overwatch, Minecraft and Elder Scrolls Online are currently peaking in players. 1/2

    @TESOnline It doesn’t matter, you don’t listen. After a decade you’re still just giving lip service.

    @Grummz Todd needs to go.. he is the problem … elder scrolls and fallout have outgrown him .. there’s genius teams stifled by him that exist

    People compare it to Elder Scrolls 6. In hindsight, I think they only announced it to soften the blow of the mobile game they announced in the same showcase. (So people would be more open minded about it knowing ES6 was on the horizon). Or development trouble, maybe.

    @WolfheartFPS @KJP_Plays Thank you for saying this. I even talked to the devs about it. I know I am used to from software games but still Witcher 3 is not using all it's mechanics to create truly challenging hard difficulty. But combat is their common problem like Elder scrolls series

    @Tenkay23 @IdleSloth84_ I think SOD3 is a “live service” title. And I think that Senua may be a smaller project that they don’t see selling consoles. It’s all speculation, but BIG SP games is what I’m thinking. Gears, Halo and fable (going forward), Elder Scrolls, Fallout, etc

    @TESOnline You need to address the problem that caused the game to no longer work before Sept 1. It didn't happen to me, but two of my friends can't play. Just remember it effects the gaming of more than just the people who can't play.

    @_Tom_Henderson_ PS didn't have a problem selling 100m consoles again. Xbox shouldn't have either but when you buy Activision and make COD exclusive, or Bethesda and they dont make any Fallouts or Elder Scrolls, how did they expect to sell consoles? Its No.1 selling point is 50% cheaper on PC..

    "Just 4 Games" was a short term solution and issue for XBOX says Matthew Ball. I'm predicting that most single player games are EXCLUSIVE to almost everyone. Elder Scrolls 6 and such... we'll see.

    @K__Med Elder Scrolls 6 will be on PS5/6. Why? Paid mods from the creator club thing. Heavy micro transactions of any kind are Service games...I suspect.

    @Grummz "Anybody not working on fallout or elder scrolls is at risk." Wait until these games are finished... heads will roll

    @TESOnline Nothing to really dislike, but nothing to get overly animated about. Nice changes at the edges when there are critical core problems that bafflingly continue to not be addressed.

    @DPermabear @PiggyKropotkinn It’s literally top 10 live service game. You don’t just stop Fortnight, FF14, Wow, Elder Scrolls, warframe, Rivals, Genshin, Rocket League etc. Sony is rtarded they bought what they wanted to end it smh

    NBK2K (@nbk2k__) reported

    @klobrille I think he means that all already existing multi-player live service games like fallout 76, Elder scrolls online, sea of thieves, cod, etc. Will continue to be multi plat but not the next halo, gears, forza etc. Yes I know fh6 is going to ps, im talking about the next one.

  • backlogcarl
    Backlog battler Carl (@backlogcarl) reported

    You wouldn’t just have that now. You would also have Fallout, Elder Scrolls, Minecraft, Halo, Gears, Forza, etc. You need games that sell a service and get people to buy into it, eventually growing into big IPs. A lot of people on this very app felt Ninja Theory was going to be that studio that took the next step. They surely could, but a lot of people felt Hellblade 2 was a lateral move and not a step up. The point I made was that so many people think innovation means stagnation at the same time, when it should be both. The truth is you can make a fun little game and just hope it sells 500k–1M copies.

    @chaosprimeZ The problem is... they won't be getting those many XBOX exclusives on the PS5 Even if XBOX hardware is insufficient, PS5 is also nowhere near to sustain a 3rd party Microsoft Gaming They will shut down most of the studios, and will only focus on CoD/Forza/Fallout/Elder Scrolls

  • Magicka313
    Arch Mage Magnus (@Magicka313) reported

    @bethesda You guys seriously piss me off. You have elder scrolls and fallout fans who have been starving for a single player experience for YEARS, but you insist on doubling down on these ******* service games. Stop. Read the room.

  • CrikeyItsDan
    Dan (@CrikeyItsDan) reported

    @Jiujitsu45 @FuuTop1 I'd rather the Sony strategy. Live service everywhere, single player exclusive. Fallout 5 and Elder Scrolls 6 will sell consoles, lots of them. But not if you can get those games on PS as well.

  • Chris_J_Harding
    cjBloodwyn (@Chris_J_Harding) reported

    @SpeedGod_CDN @PaulTassi Imagine they made these franchises exclusive in the future: Elder Scrolls Fallout Skylanders Crash Bandicoot Guitar Hero Tony Hawk DOOM Wolfenstein Blade Spyro Of course there are others, but that would make a hell of a statement.

  • RationalBuckPod
    David | Rational Buck Podcast 🦌 (@RationalBuckPod) reported

    @Grummz I mean all they gotta do is release more staples and cash in. They bought or raised studios that stopped producing. They’re finally getting back to it but if we’d had the next Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Fable, and good Halo with more haste they never would’ve been in trouble.

    @OtterRuin @TESOnline he issue is not my original statement, but that you don't understand my original statement. I don't know how to explain it any easier for you bud. Right now in 2026 the 4 original classes and weapons have ALL THE SAME SKILLS. No innovation at all. Boring AF

    @TESOnline so instead of improving the daily login, you put a ******* battle pass. the grind is unreal. if wanted that much grinding i would go to a ********** and i hate strip clubs. your events have gone so lame is hilarious and the rewards are pathetic.

    A lot don’t want to pay a monthly subscription service for a game , games have a subscription service apart of game you already paid for is very scummy, it scummy when elder scrolls online did it , it’s scummy when world of Warcraft does it and it’s scummy when FF XIV does it

  • Mason__666
    FineYoungGalahad (@Mason__666) reported

    @matt_gerken @JBishie @ballmatthew That's my point. They still had more focus on PS. 3 new announced games vs 2 for Xbox. If they really want to get back in the game, they need to make it all exclusive except for MP/Live service. Even the big stuff, Elder Scrolls and Fallout. Stuff that WILL sell hardware.

  • geis_shane
    Shane (@geis_shane) reported

    @pushsquare So fake bro all live service everywhere all prior agreements honored….system seller games 1-2 a year like Elder Scrolls 6 exclusive….all others multiplat. Both companies will have 1-2 console exclusive games a year when Helix drops Xbox will have a 1000
