I am seeing the hypefest for Skyrim.  However, consider how New Vegas turned out, generating an article on VGChartz to not support buggy software.  Well, I am curious if people are not expecting it to have issues with bugs.  Do people think it won't be buggy or will have issues with bugs?


You do realize Bethesda didn't make New Vegas correct?

They did publish it though, and even in the DOS days, they had issues with bugs.


There's a HUGE difference between publishing and developing.  FFXIV was a massive mess, should I expect FFXV to be an unfinished mess when it's released?

As for Bethesda, every game has bugs.  Some games have more bugs than others, what's important is that those bugs don't completely break the experience and there aren't a lot of them.  I found my faire share of bugs in Oblivion and a few in Fallout 3, but they were either incredibly minor or incredibly rare so I wasn't really upset.  Like I said, every game has bugs.  If you wanted the thread to be about games Bethesda made, you should have stopped at Fallout 3.

Obsidian, the developers of New Vegas, on the other hand, they're games have lots of bugs and bad bugs.  I haven't played New Vegas but I have played NWN2 and KotoR 2 and, well, I'm not surprised about New Vegas.  I had to stop playing both of those games because I encountered game breaking bugs that I could do nothing to get around.

Oh, and lol, Alpha Protocol.
