Sorry to do this, but I think I gotta burst your optimism bubble about Elder Scrolls... you're probably looking at quite a few years until that one...

They're coming out with Starfield first (which will probably be in a year or two) and THEN Elder Scrolls (according to the leaks and the way they've released past games). I wouldn't be surprised if that's 4-5 years away.

Ugh, I know it’ll be awhile. I’m kinda mad at the fact Bethesda went for Fallout again before elder scrolls. I thought they usually bounced back and forth with the occasional side game in between. I never got into the fallout series.

Again, if you don't care about shooters, there's no longer any reason to have an Xbox. And I say this as someone with over a 70000 gamerscore on Live and still having a first-gen 360. Microsoft is terrible at developing new IP nowadays (aside from the occasional Live game like Ori and the Blind Forest). I guess I can expect my 1.08 K/D ratio in the next Black Ops to shoot well over if we all switch to PS4. :naughty:

Speaking of great controllers, I broke 3 Xbox One controller in 2 weeks a few months ago. I was ready to lose it. All the left joysticks snapped when clicking in. They're such cheaply made pieces of ****. They replaced the inside copper parts from the 360 with plastic and raised the price. All my online gaming is on Xbox with my closest friends or I'd turncoat back to Sony. Their exclusives are some of the best games of the decade, let alone "good" games.

Ori was fun for the hours 8 hours it took. Still, **** you, MS.

I think the left stick on my Xbox controller is starting to stick in the north direction. Since I never played in a party with anyone on PS4, are the mics as prone to echoing as the Xbox headsets? It's been going on since the 360 and it's infuriating! It may be a universal internet chat problem but since I only played on Xbox I have no clue. I don't want to keep buying new headsets if it's not the headset's fault!

Well Fallout 76 isn't deviating from the pattern too much. It was the multiplayer mode they made to go with Fallout 4, but had to cut out because of time. As far as their full games go, it was always going to be Fallout, Starfield, then Elder Scrolls... so Fallout 76 is more like a bonus for people who want that kind of thing.

I've only had two controllers since the Xbox One came out... and that was only because I accidentally dropped the first one. No problem with mics either.

Maybe you guys need to be more careful with your toys. :naughty:

At least I got two controllers when I got the console bundle. Trust me, the days of throwing controllers at walls ended for me during the PS one era. My SNES controllers had bite marks in them. I went full-on spaz as a kid.

I still owe my parents a few hundred bucks from smashing controllers. I probably had 3-5 controllers I hammer smashed into my floor, and another 5-7 mics that got dismembered.

To clarify, I don't smash controllers. I may have done that with a 360 controller once.......but my Xbox One's just break when I click in the joystick for the "sprint" button. I die inside just a little bit every time.

NHL was/is notorious for broken left sticks, but strangely enough I never had a broken left stick from all the nhl and shooters I’ve played.
The L1/R1 shoulder buttons are a different story.

One of my PS3 joysticks was literally spinning because of all the "sprinting" I did in NHL. That was annoying.

Lol I just play NHL and am a spam sprinter. I read up on it, and it's a common MS problem. :pullhair:

My last controller I warrantied at Best Buy. I broke it a few weeks ago and need to get my new one. Then cry knowing I'll break that one too. MS is gonna make me broke.

My Left thumb is half dead from doing the same thing, but I’ve never broken the joystick. I’d smash all of you guys if I still had my Xbox.
