Does anyone actually care about the bugs though? I've never really been bothered unless they literally break the game (the Skyrim Giants are iconic now lol) I'd say the real problems are completely unfinished games and games that have serious performance issues eg. Battlefield 2042 and TLOU

I will happily take a very buggy launch over half-baked design - especially in an open world Bethesda game.
If a launch similar to Fo4 or Fo76 means we don't get a progression system like constellations from Skyrim (inconsistently balanced and with many missing the point of the tree entirely) I will be glad

Except fallout 76 wouldn’t even run on my (well spec’d out) rig until the two weeks after release. That was terrible. That wasn’t just buggy. That was actually unplayable. In contrast, never had a single game breaking but in FO4, though Initially did see some weird texture loads.
