I manage to play the base Skyrim game through, with a few broken quests issues that could not be resolved. It was annoying enough not being able to do questlines that I really wanted to do because of shoddy programming. Still, I managed to finish the game and see most of the content.

Now, just having purchased all the DLC I have encountered several more quest break and one incredible bug that is complete gamebreaking. Now I don't use mods of any sort, despite the horrible menu and inventory interface that was designed by morons, I chose not to us emods becaus eI have ready many have unexpected effects on the game.

So anyway, I installed Skyrim fresh and continued on my character. Went through Dragonborn fine, got started on Dawnguard and was almost done with my first house in Hearthfire. Somewhere alng the lines 2 things broke:

Soul Trap no longer traps souls, I no longer absorb the soul after killing a dragon. Also, I lost a shout I know I had...I lost the third rank of Ice Form and I have already done the quest but it took me awhile to realize that. I went back to wher eI got it but the wall is still inactive.

So the first thing I did wa stry anothe rcharacter I havet use in awhile, same thing. Deleted game, reinstalled game, loaded game...same thing.

I sick of putting up with stuff from this company. It's such a [censored] let down to think "Yay! New content!" that you don't even get to play becaus eof gamebreaking bugs. Bethesda won't get anymore of my money.

Sorry you feel upset.

Yes these games have bugs but the best method to deal with them is to make constant new saves and not overwrite them.

If on the PC there are unofficial patches that just look at fixing game bugs and glitches.

I still find Bethesda's games to be well made even with the bugs/glitches since almost all games will have some, There are only a few games that can match the scope and size of Bethesda's games with content and areas to explore in a sandbox environment. These games are very complex and bugs and glitches are more likely to happen and quite often making a patch creates more bugs and glitches.

@Drachexe If you don't like it don't play the game, don't make a account on their forums just to complain. Keep it to yourself.

The Soul Trap spell never worked on Dragons. Spawned dragons that replace Placed dragons do not give up souls when you kill them. That's part of the game.

Now, I can't see where you have a specific problem running the game, and this is a section for hardware support. Not for rants.
