There is no need to produce any conspiratorial theories, Microsoft does not care what ZOE does. This is a separate company with separate problems, they have a headache even without ZOE.
In this case, we are dealing with the usual shortsightedness and lack of insight on the part of the developer. It just so happened that a similar thing happened with Doom, but there is no relationship whatsoever.

Fair enough its just odd to me only Bethesda games have these problems
We know ZOS has a habit of overlooking things in the process of getting updates out the door, its more than likely just an oversight cuz Sony makes the process harder than it needs to be
I have bad news for you
Warframe, Genshin, Final Fantasy and others - none of this games are native ps5 game.
All have PS4->PS5 trophy transfer day one. Stop making up all sorts of stories about compatibility problems.
If the developer wants he does it, if he doesn't want he doesn't.
It is the developer's job to find solutions to the problem and solve them.If they do not want to do it or they do not have the opportunity to do it, then they can just write about it.And I will fully understand them and I will not have any complaints against them.
But we have a unique case here, when nothing is said, complete silence, sometimes something slips on Twitter. But no specifics.Therefore, people are already starting to come up with some conspiracy theories, invent facts out of the blue.
All ZOE had to do was simply write, "We're dealing with this issue await for news" or "We sorry, we can't do that" And that's it.
P.S - There will be an update in Warframe this year there will be a crossplay between Xbox, PS4, PS5, Switch and Mobile phones. Well, let's also discuss why it's 2021 and TESO still doesn't have at least a crossplay between Xbox and PS4/PS5
This is a joke - please don't discuss it...
It's very simple if the developer wants to do something, he does it and looks for ways to bring it to life. If he doesn’t want or doesn’t have the opportunity to do it, then he doesn’t. It's that simple.
If playing a video game is like work it's being played wrong! The trophies are easy to get by completing specific tasks! The fishing is mostly standing around then running to a new spot then standing around again and the other is having fun in Cyrodiil! Just by playing the game I'm getting all the brand new trophies! No need for trophy cheats. They can be earned in game by playing as intended!

I have played the game as intended. Many times over. So many times that there are 17 out of the 46 base game trophies that I can't ever get because I've already done the achievements that would unlock them on all 18 of my characters. That's a third of the possible trophies permanently locked out.
No, I will not delete a character that I've spent many hours playing and considerable real life money on. There are different classes I do different things with anyway, so I wouldn't just need to do it once but several times over.
That's not being unreasonable. No other business would expect you to trash something you've paid for just to increase performance. My phone company don't tell me I can't upgrade unless I stamp on the old one first.
I'm playing on the same platform, same server, same account, same characters. I've completed all the same achievements. Does it say anywhere in game whether I've earned an achievement on a PS4 or PS5? No it doesn't. They aren't "new trophies," they're the exact same ones we've already earned, and having earned them they can't be earned again.
PC and XBox aren't penalised for using better hardware so why should we be? It's like telling PC players they need to do separate achievements depending on if they happen to log in on a PC using an Intel or AMD CPU.

You are right some ps4 are exceptions like cyberpunk and fallen order for example that are coded to recognize new console hardware so who is to say that there arent other exceptions like certain developers or studios preparing for it. You are also right about its up to the developers to find the solutions, solutions like poor compatibility for example.

Lotta PS5 games have “half upgrades” they aren’t official upgrades but there’s higher framerate options, TLOU2 and Ghost of Tsushima, for example

I'm afraid no one will answer us, they chose the tactic of complete silence. At the moment, I'm not even sure if they have a position of community manager, if this position still exists, then I have a lot of questions for this person
"I’d honestly ignore him, he doesn’t wanna see our side at all, he thinks making a brand new account makes sense"
I think everyone has already understood everything and no one pays attention to him.
In fact, he does a very good job, he maintains this topic in the top without letting it go down, for which I am grateful to him. You don't have to run into the negative, always look for the positive. There is enough negativity in life without it.
The PS5 version has a lot of problems, in addition to problems with trophies, mediocre performance in some places, a lot of crashes. The game behaves extremely unstable and was clearly not ready for release. Now I already have fewer complaints about the fact that something does not work, and more to the fact that there is no communication with the players, as a result of which, there is no understanding of what is going on and what to expect next.
Didn't realize get double trophies with Doom eternal as well! Working on double platinum ESO trophies and soon to start the double Doom. Hopefully Bethesda won't break trophies to appease the few who want trophies without playing the game.
I have played the game though. I have put literally thousands of hours into the game to earn those trophies. I shouldn't have to redo all that I've done playing the game just to re-earn the trophies I have already earned by playing the game.
Ì'm assuming you played the old PS4 ESO game for thousands of hours. There are the old trophies for the old PS4 ESO game and new trophies for the new PS5 ESO game! You get to keep some progress like character, currency, etc - but you don't get the new PS5 trophies that you haven't earned yet. You can earn the new PS5 ESO game trophies from playing the new PS5 ESO game though! All you have to do is complete some specific in game objectives to earn the various trophies. It's that easy! If you haven't tried the new PS5 ESO game yet you really should. It is much improved over the old PS4 version.
Honestly, it's actually pretty damn upsetting to look through my trophies on PS4 and know that I have to do ALL that work all over again - all the base game, all the DLCs, all of it, just to get to the same thing on PS%. Especially the few DLCs that I have only one or two trophies to clean up for 100%.
Why should we have to downgrade our version of the game in order to complete our trophy lists and not have to redo Every. Single. Thing. from scratch? @ZOS_SarahHecker? @ZOS_GinaBruno? Bueller? ANYONE?
Can anyone from ZoS answer us that? When pretty much every other game with a next gen upgrade has ported the trophy list over?
This just feels like a punishment for having put so much time and effort into the game on an """"old"""" version.

It's the same game and you just entirely disproved your own patronising point, because if it's the same character and the same progress it's the same game. [snip]

HELLO @ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_SarahHecker?? ANYONE?
We are now witnessing "the best" community management in MMO history.
The game on PS5 is absolutely not ready for release, trophies do not work, constant crashes (I can't even distribute CP calmly without the game crashing) and we still have no answers or even at least some news about what is happening.
We will not even raise the question of the fact that the starting locations have already simply drowned in bots and people are just tired of even sending reports.
But they chose a strategy - "we do it quietly, we won't say anything to anyone".
What is very surprising, I play MMO games from Ultima Online (I am 38 years old - yes, I am old ^_^ ), a and I haven't seen such a bad interaction with players from the developer for a long time.

This is great news for Trophy hunters, not only do we still have all the PS4 trophies, we can continue earning new trophies on PS5, fantastic if you have %100 trophies on PS4, you get to earn ALOT of new trophies on the PS5 version.
You do not "lose" your ps4 trophies they will always be there.
Achievements carry over from PS4 to PS5, you do not have to earn them again.
Also you can simply toggle back and forth between the PS4 version and the PS5 version on the PS5 Enhanced version so you can finish up your PS4 Trophies, then start earning new ones on PS5. I get to keep playing the game I love, and keep earning trophies, how is this a bad thing?

If that's such a great thing, why do nearly all other companies that have cross-generation games do trophy re-unlocking?
If Borderlands, Assassin's Creed, Destiny, and plenty of others unlock Trophies on the PS5 based on what you did on a save that originated from the PS4, why does ESO (and DOOM Eternal) get to be exempt from the expectations?
We're not asking for an innovative feature here, just an industry standard.
Edit:C'mon Man, I just looked at your Trophies. You just have casual adventuring stuff unlocked. No Emperor, no Master Angler, not even any Veteran DLC Dungeon clears. Just Skyshards, Dungeons, Dolmens, etc. You don't really have a platform to argue on in regards to this discussion when you haven't really done anything that requires significant effort...

You sure about that? They might be gambling that you will keep playing longer, since trophies seem to be popular for what ever reason. Thier goal is to keep you playing and make them money, nothing else, they do not care in the slightest if it makes you angry, or upset if it makes them more money.
It's like the no way to change classes, I guarantee in thier data, it says people will spend hundreds of hours remaking characters to a new class, which equals more money for them. I'm not sure how long it takes to redo trophies, since they are absolutely meaningless to me, but I'm gonna guess it's not a 10 min process.
So my guess is they said hmm, well some people are just gonna stay with PS4, but others might play 10x longer than they originally would to get the PS5 trophies, let's roll the dice and see.
