Kotaku: As much as people love the expansive video games of Bethesda Softworks, they loathe the bugs—and the surprising preponderance of them that appear with the launch of new Elder Scrolls or Fallout games.
This time, as Bethesda prepares to put out the massive Skyrim, they've got a plan to do better.
Interview with Stephen Russell, Actor for (Nick Valentine, Codsworth, My Handy) in Fallout 4 which is a vast open world role playing game set in the apocalyptic wastes of Boston, the Commonwealth. The career goes further with other Bethesda games from Starfield to Prey to The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.
Replaying Skyrim after 13 years is a reminder of the progress made in western RPGs over the last decade, but also what's been lost.
RPGs are often huge, sprawling endeavours. With limited playtime, we have to choose wisely, so here's the best western RPGs available today.
"I started playing games yesterday" the List... Meh!
How about a few RPGs that deserve some love instead?
1 - Alpha Protocol - Now on GOG
2 - else Heart.Break()
3 - Shadowrun Trilogy
4 - Wasteland 2
5 - UnderRail
6 - Tyranny
7 - Torment: Tides of Numenera
And for a bonus game that flew under the radar:
8 - Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden
Meaning ''We know the game will have more bugs than ever before, and if u arent connected to the net, you are totally screwed''
It's called QUALITY CONTROL.
Hey Bethesda:
MAKE SURE YOUR GAME IS RIGHT BEFORE YOU RELEASE IT.
If it has bugs dont ship it. (We do pay $60 for COMPLETE games afterall)
How about hiring a QA team?
Oh wait, why do that when the public can be your free QA? dohoho
People dont realize the sheer number of variables in a game the size of morrowwind or fallout. We are talking millions if different scenerios. Player went here, took that, killed them then ran and jumped 5 times, cast fire, hit menu 3 times real fast, went in cave, backed out fast while drawing weapon as npc walked up to say hi. Game froze....how do u test for every scenerio?
