Armor and weapon cleanup is something that should be fixed, but I'd prefer if Bethesda were to hunker down and release at least one comprehensive patch before they abandon this game. Modders have shown that the vast majority of the bugs in this game (and every other Beth game) are fixable. Bethesda already holds the rights to any unofficial mods and patches. Even if Bethesda didn't want to directly port the unofficial patches, I'm sure if they were to devote just one week of development time to focus on solely patching this game, they could fix a very large percentage of the bugs in this game. They already know all of the bugs. They know how to fix them. Many of the bugs would take less than 5 minutes to fix. So why does Bethesda insist on releases these "patches" that fix only a few dozen bugs in a game that has thousands?
Really, just imagine how much good press Bethesda would get for doing that. This is a company that's renowned for making notoriously buggy games. They could redeem themselves by releasing a thorough, comprehensive patch for what is undoubtedly their most successful game yet. But... they don't. I'll never understand it.
