Skyrim
-
I've been playing Skyrim on xBox 360 since 2 days before release.
Bethesda seems to have forgotten what "quality control" means. Many quests are screwed up in some way (Red Eagle quest keeps partially coming back whenever you get the book, crimson nirnroot quest doesn't count them properly as I have 38 but the game says I only have 12, etc, etc, etc), the graphics are wonky in a lot of places (talking to people that are nothing more than 2 short sticks, or dead dragons that are pitch black of the abyss). On top of this, quest items, many that weight massive amounts, aren't being removed from your inventory and can't be removed because they are quest items. I have about 80lbs (or 80 kilos, however you want to view it), and growing, of quest items taking up space that could be used for carrying loot.
We (360 users) just got our first patch (3mb) and all it did was fix 2 problems that I didn't even know existed. When I say "I didn't even know existed", I'm including all the people on the internet that have been talking about the game too.

Let me start off by saying, I'm totally in love with Skyrim. It far exceeded my expectations, and for me, it's been highly addicting. However, I have run into my fair share of bugs. Some wonky things happen in the land of Skyrim (random DEAD dragons falling from the sky, quest characters getting stuck in random places, falling through objects or getting stuck on random, and I assume, invisible things) but I always seem to find a way around these problems.
I recently bought the 360 version. I had downloaded the PC version, but it just wasn't the same without a controller. I think the game is absolutely gorgeous in terms of graphics, and the randomly generated quests keep the game going well after you've beaten the main storyline.
I've noticed updates being offered every-now-and-then, but I still run into some major issues. I'd be lying if I said they didn't bother me, and that at times, they totally screw me over when fighting bosses or random hordes of enemies, but the game is so massive, with seemingly endless content that I've adjusted myself to expect bugs.
I recommend this game to anyone, Bethesda did an amazing job creating this game, and although there are hiccups, the endless content, immersive storyline and gameplay, epic battles far outweigh them. :]
