    Honestly at this point I feel like if Skyrim were completely bug free, it’d actually be less entertaining than it is, because sometimes it’s fun to exploit some of them or watch some experienced player completely break the game at every turn to do ridiculous things like beat the game without even using the walk controls.

      Bug acceptability is based entirely on the effect hey have on the general player experience.

      Fun, useful, interesting, optional = good.

      Disruptive, harmful, game breaking, unavoidable = bad.

    I have a personal one year embargo on starfield for this exact reason.

    Not touching it t until a year after release, waiting to see if it’s fucked or not… Bethesda, eh.

    I can’t wait for Starfield to come out. If it’s a broken mess on day 1 and there will be lots of juicy internet drama. It might even be as entertaining as the 2020 presidential debate.

      If?

      Its a Bethesda game.

      Bethesda has never released a game that wasnt a broken mess.

      Thats why they support modding so much, they basically outsource testing and bugfixing to their community of eager modders.
