    Indeed. So many problems are fixable too, to the point where users have patches for hundreds of the game bugs by just modifying attributes and using the game engines scripting. It’s honestly unexcusable, they can do better than this.

      It really highlighted it for me when getting Skyrim for Nintendo Switch.

      You mean to tell me that this game had been out, at least 6 years and the same bugs that were plaguing me in 2011 are still here post-2017?!

      I’ll never get over the bug in Windhelm that prevents you from starting the murder quest to eventually be able to buy the home in the town. It plagued me on my first playthroughs all the way back on the Xbox 360 and PS3 and followed to the next generation too… Just a lazy cashgrab.

      Worse is that the Switch version has no official ways to get mods, so no community patches either! But hey, you can now use Amiibo and get Zelda gear, so cool and worth it!!

        That’s not a bug, it’s a feature.

        Just Tod Howard streamlining your RPG experience so that he can say “it just works”.

        You say that, but I would not be surprised if there were people who genuinely have that view.
