Why Skyrim Didn’t Play Nice With The PS3

This is what you get when the 90s most infamous PC RPG developer is one of the very few to survive. Bethesda got far bigger than they ever deserved. (For the record: I love Morrowind, but Bethesda doesn't deserve to sell 10 million buggy games.)

Can't blame them. If people buy your games in truckloads on release despite all the bugs and the sales go up with every buggy game you release, why should a developer learn from his mistakes?

Also, it certainly helped that many of the PC RPG developers which made better games than Bethesda gave up or had to give up a long time ago (Origin Systems, Sir-Tech, New World Computing. SSI, Dynamix, Westwood, Interplay, Black Isle).

I'm glad that at least BioWare is still around and that CD Projekt quickly became a big player with two great Witcher games (while Piranha Bytes dropped the ball spectacularly with Gothic 3). I stll hope Blizzard decides to create a classic offline RPG one day.

Don't remind me, I loved Gothic 1 and 2.   >.<
