I've bought just about every game since Gridiron for my Amiga back in the late 80s. All the Elder Scrolls line for sure. I was really upset with Fallout 3 and all the memory freezing issues and swore I wouldn't buy the next one unless the game engine was overhauled or changed.

What did I do? The second it was available for pre-order on Amazon, I clicked the buy button. Such is the slobery love affair gamers have with this company. Grrrr.

I was mad when this game was sooo buggy. I could see that they really made the game smaller to try and limit the memory issues, so at least they tried something. They can't really do anything about Havok other than dump it and I guess that wasn't realistic. In any case, I did what I did with Fallout 3. I figured out what to do to limit the crashing and I continued on through the end, loving every minute of the game, when it wasn't crashing.

I bought the Fallout 3 DLC knowing I was going to have more of the same crashing, but also more of the same game play.


Now I've hassled through all the endings of FLNV and I've plat'd the game on two accounts and even though I told myself again that the next release won't be bought till I see proof on forums that the game is pretty issue free...

As soon as it's available for pre-order on Amazon, I will be clicking the button again.

I absolutely will not buy another game from either Bethesda or Obsidian at launch. Depending on how the issues are handled with this game (they are doing a piss poor job so far)- that may turn into "I will not buy another Bethesda or Oblivion game - ever."

It's not like there aren't lots and lots of alternatives ;)

This is part of my problem with this.. there are just not that many games out there that are like these open sandbox rpg type games.

Sure fps after fps after fps after fps after fps and 70 million versions of Madden. Just not that many good open exploration type games. :( I wait for every one of them.

I love Elder Scrolls. I would have bought it on release.

Now though, I'm going to wait until TES5 is preowned and cheap.

I'm tempted to post a nice list - but I'm sure it will only be met with petty retorts how the games svcks and in no way can compare to FO. (Not by yourself mind you).

So I'll just say I think there's lots and lots and lots of alternatives - and that I guess I'm lucky in that I pretty much enjoy all genres except for sports and strategy games.

For the ps3?

I have a bunch going way back for the PC, but beyond Rockstar and Bethesda, I haven't seen much for the ps3. I did just get Dragon Age (forget the rest of the name lol) because somebody said it was a little like Oblivion. I play lots of types of games, but RPG games are pretty few and far between. I'd love any recommendations outside the big ones we all know and love. I actually double dip most of them. Have them for the PC and for the PS2/3 or Xbox as well.

Do you mean Obsidian? Or are you creating a fun little nickname for them :)

Anyways, I promised myself that I wouldn't buy another Bethesda game after how HORRIBLE Fallout 3 was with bugs and freezing etc. (I liked the gameplay and story when it all worked) I kept that promise and let my dad buy the game and when he got fed up with the issues within the first day I "stole" the game from his house and man did I make a good decision in not buying. I have multiple threads and have joined in on multiple threads regarding all the issues I have run into. I am extremely disappointed and will uphold that promise that I made and purchase a used copy for myself once the majority of the major issues are corrected. Never will they see my money again.

It's a love/hate thing right now with Bethesda. I love their games but hate the flaws that go with them. Although Fallout seems to be the only problem. I will still buy from Bethesda/Obsidian. Don't get me wrong I'm mad as hell I can't play FLNV. But I know Bethesda can deliver quality games, just sometimes it'll be a good game with flaws. And if we're talking PS3 rpgs only, there isn't many options. Of the options like Borderlands, Dragon Age, White Knight Chronicles. I can't play these. IMO they don't measure up.

Bioware and Bethesda is all I play. New Vegas and can't wait for Mass Effect 2.

Rumors are that the Elder Scrolls 5 will run on a brand new engine, made by Bethesda for open world games.
Of course, I'm gonna look at the reviews before buying, but chances are that next Bethesda games will run on
a brand new engine. Now let's hope bugs will disappear and that graphics will improve.

I will buy any and all of them, I have not lost "faith" in them, and your punctuation is giving me a headache. :banghead:

Nothing against you OP, but this has been asked and it is being....actually it's just beating a dead horse really. FONV again wasn't made by Bethesda it was made by Obsidian as stated. Also FONV isn't that bad i've experienced the bugs people are talking about and it never diminished my gaming experience ever. Infact i've played two games so far each clocking in around 50 to 70 hrs. At the moment i'm taking a break and 1/2 playing my 3rd play through for some fun while i'm also modding the game. Plan to release my Modified Augmented Crafting plugin that will revamp a bit of the crafting system adding in new recipes and hopefully a new creating item.

I'm preordering TES:V the day it's announced. :angel:
Bethesda games are too good to pass up.

The order I have I played: Fallout 3, Oblivion, Morrowind, Arena, Daggerfall.
I just love Bethesda games.

Eh I didn't encounter any huge bugs for F:NV

Mostly just graphical

I typically have more gripes about the storyline and character interaction (which typically falls flat)

But as far as buying another Beth game yeah I'd get it (well if it's TESV anyway) :P

I never really had any bugs in the PC version of FO3...OB was a bigger offender in that regard.

My copies of FO3, Oblivion, and FNV all proved to be relatively bug free experiences, until I started modding them. Even then, Oblivion was probably the worst offender. so I have to say, I haven't suffered this bug issue.

I actually do not understand what people are complaining about. Am I the only person in the world who hasn't had any bugs with New Vegas? I've played something like 150 hours already, not a single crash or game breaking glitch...

Also, I will definitely be buying the next Beth game to come out. Even if they utterly shafted Xbox and PC players, and went PS3 exclusive, I'd probably seriously consider buying a PS3 just to play TESV.

Of course, I'd be angry as hell, but...

Even with the bugs, they are some of the best games out there (especially in the sandbox RPG genre). I'll take an occasional crash for an overall fun time.

All Beth games I've bought have been very stable, even though the amazing amounts of dirty modding I've subjected them to :shrug:

What terrible bugs in FNV? :P

seriously, apart from the occasional freeze, I haven't had any bugs. Apart from when the supermutants can shoot me despite facing the opposite direction. But its really been a lot better than Oblivion or Fallout 3, and much more stable.

Because of how I feel spat in the face from Firaxis and 2K, I will never ever buy a new game on launch day, the exception is Bethesda. As sad as it is, I expect a buggy product from Bethesda. I also expect a beautiful rich, openended game from them as well. So while I [censored] and complain about products being released early and patched later, Bethesda is the exception. I love TES so much that I will get it on launch day if I have the money. I bought New Vegas on launch day, and I don't regret it. Am I a bit disapointed with it? Yes, but I still love NV and I am eargerly waiting for TES V.

Any other game that is not Fallout series or TES series, I will wait and not buy on launch day. I will wait 6 months or wait till it's a gift given to me.

I never by games on launch date....ever

I give all games 6 months at minimum before I pick them up....altho i did by FO3 maybe a month or so after release...but that was an extremely rare exception

In general I just assume all release date products are bugged and it takes some months before they are properly patched
