At least in Bethesda’s case, the bugs are rarely game-breaking. Must of them are just visual or physics bugs which can be amusing. If Starfield releases in a similar state to Skyrim’s launch, I’ll be happy.
Then again there was that one game-breaking bug on PS3 when your Skyrim save got too big. Hopefully we don’t have a repeat of that.
I almost like the bugs and feeling like Bethesda games are breaching at the seams because they made so much possible.
I had plenty of issues with quests and scripts not running when they should when I played through Skyrim the first time.
Might’ve been a PC thing though.

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.
Give it 5 or 6 years and you can get the Definitive Deluxe Starfield Special Game of the Year Edition. Pretty good deal.
You’ll definitely know within a day, at most a week, how fucked it is. The only kind of bug I can think of that may take so long to come out is if there’s a save bug that wipes saves. Which is more of a concern on console.
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.

That’s not a bug, it’s a feature.
Just Tod Howard streamlining your RPG experience so that he can say “it just works”.
Who do you think has been reposted/released the most, this joke or the Skyrim game?

It’s a feature not a bug 😂 honestly their bugs are usually hilarious and enjoyable
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.
