He meant skyrim had the same issues but the reviewers ignored it.

Exactly.

Reviewers didn't ignore it, they factored it in but thanks to the fact that there was so much GOOD in skyrim, the bad (glitches, bugs, poor animations) got steamrolled.  No reviewer I know will say Skyrim is without bugs, no gamer will say that either, but they will say that the game was so fun, so expansive, so immersive, and so ambitious that the shortcomings had next to no effect on their overall enjoyment of it. 

if I play a 6 hour game and encounter a half hour of buggy gameplay, I'd be furious.  if I play a 250 hour game and encounter an hour of buggy gamepaly, it barely registers.  it's all about scope, scale, and relativity.  Skyrim had gitches, they sucked, but the game was so good that we kinda collectively got over it.
