Elder Scrolls and Fallout seem to get a pass for being buggy and glitchy because they are made by Bethesda. But why is this? Would any other company get this sort of free pass?
Hanzala from eXputer: "With Ubisoft's practices becoming increasingly anti-consumer lately, the destruction of The Sands of Time Remake looks almost inevitable."
Hey Ubi, here's a gun, don't shoot yourself in the foot.

Take-Two Interactive has announced that it will lay off 5% of its workforce and cancel some of its games in an effort to increase profits.
They had a deal with netflix there were rumors of a bully remake and or port.
They also were deep into another version of gta iv like there crap gta trilogy remember all the takedowns.
It's a business tho..TakeTwo has 11,600 people, which means they let go around 600 people. There was probably a lot if bloat, but did anyone report about TakeTwo giving any "stimulus" to the employees laid off?
$35 million is being spent on severance pay. That's roughly $58,000 per employee, which probably includes continued benefits and pay after seperation. Can we get more of a report on how TakeTwo is supporting those let go?
^ That's if the averages worked out. We don't know if its like that or if a big shot got $30 million while others got dirt...
That's why we need journalists to dig in instead of these shallow news reports.
Severance is great but the problem is the industry is experiencing layoffs all over, which makes it very hard for a lot of these people to get back into a job. The issue is these companies are expecting higher revenue every year, and when they have a year where they make the same amount or a little bit less all hell breaks loose. The only silver lining I'm seeing here is that a lot of these people will go on to create smaller indie studios and hopefully create something.
There should be a law that says you can’t get rid of employees just for profits without executives taking a x % pay cut first. Encourage them to figure something else out.
100% agree! I understand layoffs are a necessity sometimes but in addition to that, yeah, the CEO should not have their bonuses paid out that year; at the very minimum.
They haven't even released the game, previous game made 10000% percent profits and then layoff?
Should be canceling the casino simulator sports games, but I know it's not them. It better not affect BioShock 4 and the Borderlands games
If you were excited about the Fallout 4 London mod, we have some bad news for you. The mod has been delayed indefinitely thanks to Fallout 4 next-gen update.
Not a bad thing. They've even shown excitement at what the update could bring to making things better for them. More work? Yeah. But, still a good thing overall.
I think this looks pretty great so they should take as much time as they need.
It’s kind of shame however we’ll probably never get to see an official Fallout London game or anything set in the UK now because of the mod.
Because Bethesda might think "Meh, London has already been done with that Mod, they've taken the shine away from it and if we do it now they might think we're copying"
Something along those lines.
While I’d love to see more world building lore in Fallout, I’d be surprised if Fallout ever ventured beyond a United States setting. Maybe a dlc to a main game though. Always wondered what other places would look like, if they too had the 50s culture with futuristic tech.
I dont know but I sort of AM.
Because even with the bugs no one else makes an action RPG quite like them. I hate it so much but it's true.
Because in spite of the issues, a lot of gamers will still take Bethesda over the alternatives any day of the week.
It's about to start get your popcorn (Sony and Some Mods stuff) this about to get interesting
