What system?

Ps4 but after 2 and a half hours and many repeats of the special videos it was up and running. A few glitches, a few frame rate drops but nothing headache inducing. but it's fine besides. Just immersion breaking. 

I feel betrayed. WHY DID YOU BUY IT!!!

You pretty much gave the impression that you wouldn't buy their games until they fix their engine. I hope it isn't as bad as skyrim and I hope you enjoy it haha

Just went and bought it for PC, have to go retail since I have 40GB surf limitation currently and till january. Guess what? The retail version for PC requires a 20GB download and only has around 5GB on the actual disc.

Now that is proper bullshit from Bethesda.

You and John2290 seemed opposed to buying Bethesda games before they are fixed! What happened to you two haha

Please let me know how it runs on PC once you get the chance to play it.



As long as they fix it, all will be well. The idea in this gaming industry is to get early sales from dedicated fans then later get word of mouth sales ("My friend says..."), the latter won't happen if the game is still broken and people won't buy the DLC.



Hmm, pie.

Bethesda keeps getting away with broken games because people keep buying them. We have people here who acknowledge Besthesda's iffy quality for over decade but yet you still payed them. Problem falls on buyers at this point.

If the buyers are happy with their purchase then there is no problem.

And you keep getting away with not understanding what "broken" means. Do you really think that just because you use hyperbole that it magically turns into the truth?


It is broken many people reported broken quests and game breaking bugs

Nah, I bought Skyrim day one as well, and Oblivion and Morrowind. The Gothic games by Piranha Bytes were also bugfests when they released, still got them day one since I loved the gameplay.

It does annoy me though, just not quite enough to not get the games right away. I also dislike EA and Origin a great deal but I still bought FIFA 16 day one.

I'll post some impressions later tonight, I'm thinking I should be able to go at around 60-75 fps average with my rig, I run The Witcher 3 at over 70 fps average, after all. If the games performs poorly, my PC is certainly not to blame.

Whoa, thanks for the show of support. Lol. I do feel quite ashamed but I paid for it with a game voucher from a 400 euro trade in back in May so it doesn't feel like I paid outta hand for it. On the bright side it's not that buggy, the graphics are okay...getting worse as I explore more though, very inconsistent but besides for a two or three notice frame drop and some visual glitches it fairly okay, the game is great 7 or 8 hours in. But I do feel ashamed with myself for giving in, buthe hey. It was this or Syndicate and ibe been boycotting ubi since last gen. I still have my integrity, damn it. :D 

Seems like it's a smoother ride. Great.

I still hope you lose your progress once or twice, now that Mummelmann got his wrist slapped, why not you too?

Off topic but weren't you a mod with a Halo/British singer avatar? 



Let me remind you something interesting.

Another issue with Bethesda is that when they fix one problem they create another.I remember while playing Skyrim they released a patch and after that patch I could not go under the water without the game freezing.
