The Elder Scrolls Online Suffers Massive Launch Problems on Consoles

The Elder Scrolls Online suffers huge launch problems

The Elder Scrolls Online players are reporting game breaking bugs on PS4 & Xbox One launch day

The Elder Scrolls franchise has been taking players on single player adventures for decades now, offering everything gamers could want except the ability to play with friends. That’s what made the announcement of The Elder Scrolls Online such a huge announcement. Opening up the world of Tamriel to a massive number of players who could all come together to play. What made the announcement doubly exciting was that the game would be coming to both PC and console.

The only drawback was that Bethesda and Zenimax Online were unable to release the PC and console version at the same time. The PC version landed last year to mixed results from fans and reviewers. The console version of The Elder Scrolls Online was held back to “solve a series of unique problems specific to those platforms” that apparently took a year to resolve. Today was the official launch of TESO on the PS4 & Xbox One, but players are not having the great time they were expecting.

Gamers who tried jumping into The Elder Scrolls Online today found that an extra year of development did nothing to help the console version avoid major problems. Just like The Master: Chief Collection and Assassin’s Creed Unity, the game has launched with major game breaking bugs being reported by players on both consoles. According to reports from gamers from North America and Europe they are unable to sign into game The Elder Scrolls Online.

The Elder Scrolls Online Console Version launches broken

Even players who were somehow able to sign into the game were met with other major glitches including: disappearing NPC’s, the friend system going down, and worst of all being forced out of the game for spamming chat despite never sending a message. Zenimax Online was quick to respond to all of these problems on the TESO forums saying the problems are due to an overwhelming amount of traffic. Advising players to keep trying to log into until they are put into queue.

That response is being met with a huge amount of fan frustration, with players pointing to the closed console beta Zenimax Online held before launch. Saying that by using a closed beta they were never able to truly put The Elder Scrolls Online console version through a stress test. It isn’t helping that gamers are dealing with these problems after downloading a day one 15gb patch that should have stopped all this from happening.

At the moment there’s no word from Zenimax Online about when The Elder Scrolls Online will be fixed and in the meantime players will have to fight through the bugs.

ReFantazio Takes a Different Approach to Romance, Setting Itself Apart from the Persona Games

Atlus’ highly anticipated RPG, Metaphor: ReFantazio, appears to incorporate familiar systems reminiscent of the developer’s acclaimed Persona series. The game features turn-based battles that heavily rely on exploiting enemy weaknesses. Additionally, players have the ability to summon warrior spirits during combat. However, the most significant aspect of this game, which will be discussed in this article, is the bonding system. Through this system, players can spend time with important characters and gain deeper insights into their personalities and stories.

In contrast to the Persona games, the bonding system ends at that point. Unfortunately, players will be unable to pursue romantic relationships with their beloved waifus, which may come as a disappointment to those who have developed strong feelings for Hulkenberg, the party’s charismatic red-haired elven knight.

According to Siliconera, the absence of romance came up during a recent question and answer session. Atlus emphasized the continued opportunity to develop meaningful relationships with your allies while also introducing additional narratives through substories. In addition, familiarizing yourself with the supporting characters will grant you access to new archetypes, which serve as the game’s character classes.

In the Persona games, romance is not obligatory; rather, it serves as a means to customize your playthrough. However, it is quite unexpected that Metaphor has chosen not to pursue such a venture, considering the significant amount of discussion it typically generates!

Were you anticipating any romantic elements in Metaphor? If you’re not satisfied with your pre-order, feel free to share your thoughts in the comments section below.

It appears that many

are eagerly anticipating the launch of the highly anticipated PS5 exclusive, Stellar Blade. Shift Up, the developer, has shared a lengthy video showcasing the “secrets” found in the physical box of the game for PS5. From what we can gather, these secrets include a reversible cover/dust jacket and a download code for cosmetic items.

We must clarify that while we do appreciate the variant cover, it may be more appealing than the game’s standard art. However, it is not something we would typically classify as a “secret.”. However, what’s interesting is that Shift Up has confirmed through the comments section that this will be the case in all regions. Additionally, the visually striking action RPG will remain uncensored worldwide.

It’s refreshing to witness a developer going the extra mile for physical collectors, and it’s evident that the developer is determined to leave a favorable mark in the console realm. Stellar Blade is set to make its highly anticipated debut this Friday, April 26th, exclusively on the PS5.
