If the engine itself is fundamentally faulty, then the size of the game is irrelevant.Mr.K. said:So is you mom but we still play with her
Why doesn't a big game have the same polish as a small one? Well if you can do some basic math the answer isn't that far away.
Yes we would like all games to be polished to a mirror shine in every aspect, but the logistics of that for this sort of game are practically impossible.
Even if you somehow get financed for the minimum of 20-30 years to put all the content together the game would haveto be rewritten on new tech and engines nonstop, so who knows what a pile of snowballing shit you would end up with.
And then at the end you get outsold by Madden 729 ... fuck that
If only a few things look bad, then it's a 'not polishing every nook and cranny' issue. If everything looks bad from an engine stand point, it's a 'Built an huge game on a buggy engine' issue.
Compare: Odd NPC interactions (the first kind) with erasing save data files (the second kind).
A large game doesn't excuse universal problems, only inconsistancy problems.
If you had read the thread, you could have seen that the game has been released in some areas early.craftomega said:
I'm not. When I shoot someone with an arrow and he flops to death like his bones just got beamed into space (Yahtzee reference) and then his friend starts running at me, getting caught behind a stone pillar yet keeps on running, I'm not exaggerating.BloatedGuppy said:
Also werewolves = deathclaws. One on one copy of animation model.
Don't believe me?
Skip to the end.
Honestly, it probably won't affect me, I was able to get into Oblivion so deep that I didn't even notice all the minor flaws until I started to actively look for them, as long as I can get into Skyrim as easily as I did with Oblivion, this will work just fine for me.

I must now marry you, you clever person you.
It's not criminal, it's civil at best, only if Bethesda can show they lost money unfairly, and only those Bethesda signed a deal with not to release are culpable.Tharwen said:
The OP has nothing to do with any of that.
At the end of the day tho, Elder Scrolls don't sell on their graphics or thier physics engines (seriously what) they sell on your ability to do tons of dumbass shit.
Is it a sandbox? Yes? Then it's what I expect and want.
Iunno, I've always liked ragdolls. They cause hilarious scenarios on occasion.Duffeknol said:
Except in Dark Souls where they are really sticky for some reason. One of them was covering a hole so I thought the ground was solid...didn't end well for me.
Edit: Watched the video. The first Dragon fight was...sad. First a wolf comes up and attacks him randomly (then gets killed by the Dragon), the Dragon's fire does shit damage, and some dude randomly appears out of nowhere and gets him killed because he wanted to start a quest or something.
Edit 2: It seems like Fallout 3 where you can just horde healing items and be an unkillable monster.
How lame.
Some people go into a game already judging it and considering the hype and hate that's amassed, as would happen for a big release like this, I'm not surprised that some-one didn't play it long enough before they made their big decision.
The solution is simple; don't play it if you don't like it, I'm sure there are a million times over the fans who will go into it and love it, no matter your complaints.

It looks like you have played a bad release of the game ....
Don´t know yet because It hasn´t been released yet and it will be patched on the release day so maybe some bugs you encountered?

Ive noticed a rise in whiners from people...who bought Skyrim but dont enjoy it and were the lucky pos that got it early...
Kinda sad...

If you don't hate it what the hell are you doing on here whining about it?Duffeknol said:
Tell us it's good features then, if you do actually like it, the question still remains though, if you like it what are you doing sitting here complaining about it?
That they have critiques of something they perchased?Lt. Vinciti said:
Or are we actually going to say something stupid like consumer products you get early are immune to rational critism? He's not an ingrate if he finds fault with something he purchased. That's called being rational.
It's hating on his criticism because he has it and you're envious that is irrational.
I have a hard time believing that it is Oblivion with better graphics. I think it's more likely that you were anticipating a game that was far superior to what it actually is. Take some time to play it, and maybe you can start to appreciate the improvements (if only minor) over Oblivion.

Exact same thing here, and I'll be glad to see what the official and unofficial patches, along with the community's modding efforts, will produce. The few early reviews I've seen are gushing over the game, but they aren't addressing the OP's concerns.Azure-Supernova said:
Odds are I'll just shrug at something like blank-faced NPCs shouting at a dragon and say "Meh, it's a Bethsoft game. You win some, you lose some".
