I sometimes play GTA 5 (because I have over 100 million in that game, I have I don't give a fuck money) and they've released a new update. Nothing major just a few additions and changes.
Since the update however, there's been two bugs, one that could delete ANY personal vehicles and the current one that randomly removes insurance so if your vehicle is destroyed you lose it for good.
Between Rockstar with this, Activision not knowing when to just shut the fuck up and Fable looking like their character artists use downs syndrome patients as their models it seems all the talent has gone out of the western video game market, at least in a major studio sense.
So which ones do you think are the biggest fuck ups that you're surprised hasn't burned down their own studio by now?
It is mostly nepotism - Chris Roberts putting his friends and family members in charge of development instead of an established studio - and the whales accepting the current state of affairs. I don't think it set out to be a "scam" but when you're making more on selling digital content (ships) than you ever will on a proper release, that incentivizes certain behavior.
