Didn't they sell over $400 million in product with Skyrim? I think perhaps they should consider fixing this for the next game release, as it will likely only get worse as games become even more detailed than they already are.
Not expecting miracles in Skyrim, but this seems like a big deal that should probably be sorted out come TES6.
I want ladders too, but not if I can't quick release from it (to prevent myself from getting stuck between two dipshit NPCs. It's bad enough getting trapped in a room at the goddamn Inn, I can't imagine being trapped on a ladder. Now that I think about it, they should allow me to shove NPCs (push) like in Left 4 Dead or something that does not (immediately) provoke a guard induced ass kicking.
They made alot of money with their other games, they need to fix this now, not wait 5 years until TES 6.
The gamer in me agrees with you, but the tech in me knows that sometimes it's just not feasible. Customers don't want to hear it but depending on what the problem is, sometimes shit is just broke on a base level. I highly doubt they'd ignore the problem if they felt they could implement a fix. If what they say is true that it's a limitation of the engine, they'll likely not fix it until TES6. Their engine is one of the only ones I know of where you can interact with goddamn everything and it is a real tangible object that is unique to the world. You can steal all of the dishes in whiterun and swap them with the dishes in Marketh if you wanted to. Why the eff you would is beyond my understanding of OCD, but you could.
I do think they could, for 400+ million bucks no less, sit down a brain storm a script that resets objects back to default if you haven't picked them up or interacted with them in, say 24 hours. Since they only track things that have been interacted with, it should be as simple as running against only the items that have been interacted with and not physically been put in your inventory. I don't work in video games, but I do work with databases so I am skeptical on how difficult this would be and why they wouldn't fix it if given the opportunity.
