    @thegreywise @TESOnline Starved? No. Y'all simply wouldn't be happy, even if they had been constantly in touch with players about the issues. This behavior is one of the reasons companies don't open up much; y'all forget they're humans as well. Imagine if your boss talked to you this way, you'd sue him

    @TESOnline so who do I contact about resolving an issue with bosses not respawning in delves. I’ve sent feedback/bug reports. I’ve gone through all the trouble shooting with customer service to no avail. All they say is to send more feedback/bug reports.

    @RCardosoEU What about other games like Crash and Tony Hawk? I appreciate cod is the biggest on the list, but no established IPs should be taken away. There should be action against them for doing that with elder Scrolls/Bethesda.

    Wow @TESOnline another great campaign start in Gray Host...blue ball group (LoM) AND a yellow ball group (probably more ZOS devs) inside Farragut. And it crashes the game..."An error has occurred..." BUT ganking is the problem? Catch yourselves on please! @SlashLurk @GinaLBruno

  • EJKINGA3

    @TESOnline I’ve played this game since it started and have ESO Plus, but I will discontinue buying your games and I will cancel my ESO Plus account if my issue isn’t resolved in a timely manner.

  • StawiarskiRene
    Nocklers/Jelen (@StawiarskiRene) reported

    @TESOnline Game crashes after logging in and playing for like a minute on steam. Already disabled some addons and updated the ones I don't have a problem with. In game it says addons are out of date even though I updated them. Any fix to this?

  • KireoFrozte
    Kilfrith Frozte (@KireoFrozte) reported

    @thegreywise @TESOnline Then I don't quite understand what you're having an issue with. Some things just take longer to fix, it's not like they ignored us

    @TESOnline Fix block bug before bringing this plz. We already have the purge bug.

  • SenpaiSucks
    Senpaiiturtle (@SenpaiSucks) reported

    @TheMacroShow Bethesda is one of the worst AAA companies imo. Fallout has terrible ui and mechanics. The Elder scrolls is miserable to play. Wolfenstein games are decent, ignoring the startup problems most players seem to have, including myself. Starfield looks awful. Bad games overall.

    @TESOnline Load-in, lag, crash, uninstall.

    @voxelhero @JezCorden @RCardosoEU Spiderman was a multiplatform franchise but you don’t mebtion that right? Elder Scrolls was wxclusive to microsoft in consoles first and this is the first Starfield. Also no mention to Demon souls exclusivity? Final fantasy… Sony does this all the time but no problem…

  • OldDaedricFlesh
    Er-Dra (@OldDaedricFlesh) reported

    @StormiFolf I definitely recommend The Elder Scrolls Oblivion and/or Skyrim. They’re just so beautiful and broken. I can’t say much about the rest because I haven’t played enough to make a statement.

  • CanadianDog
    Darrell (@CanadianDog) reported

    @TESOnline What's the point if you haven't upgraded your servers yet? The lag is so awful and unplayable in prime time, and i haven't played in 6 months due to the fact of years of broken promises

    @Vylaera @TESOnline Honestly, I think you just want to be mad. That's your right. Though I think it's kind of unreasonable personally. Human error is unavoidable, bugs happen, the team worked to fix it. Myself and many others appreciate their work. That's all there is to it.

    @BrutusPT @TESOnline they said they're gonna release a bug fix patch tomorrow for PC, fixing crashes and add-on bugs, no word on the block bug but i guess they won't just release a full bug fix patch just to fix one bug

  • KireoFrozte
    Kilfrith Frozte (@KireoFrozte) reported

    @thegreywise @TESOnline I mean, I play daily, almost without any issues at all, except PvP lag. I constantly meet new people, and the guilds I'm in are popular. It doesn't seem as bad as people make it, it's just niche, and won't ever get wow popularity.

    @BaldyWookie @TESOnline Well, that sounds like a add-on. That's not their problem, if that's the case, cos you've chosen to use Third party software that now isn't working right.

    @GamersNexus Not a fan of the elder scrolls. Something feels broken in each one.

    @iPhone12minipfp @RunaMerone @moatxsx Pay $1 for a month of Game Pass Ultimate, play the game through cloud streaming, then cancel Game Pass. It's not optimal, but input lag shouldn't be a deal breaker on an Elder Scrolls \ Fallout style game. Worth it to save a ton of money on hardware.

    Has anyone else suddenly become totally incapable of playing @TESOnline? It just... goes away. Seconds after loading in I'm staring at my desktop. No crash, no error, nothing in event viewer, reinstall did nothing, removing addons did nothing, compat/admin mode did nothing.

    Rose the Star Warrior (@StarWarriorRose) reported

    @Juicecat00 @TKsMantis It wasn't a bad game. It just had the unfortunate issue of being caught between two of the best written RPGs ever made, as far as fallout was concerned, and the two games that made elder Scrolls popular as far as Bethesda was concerned
