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?
I would say the most incompetent is generally Bethesda. Their games are always afflicted with bugs.
I don't know if that's incompetent or laziness as they know the modders will fix it
It's like having a slouch older brother who has a responsible younger brother that will clean up his mess. Actually the one thing that really ticks me off is how they made it that mods disable the trophy system as your games pretty much REQUIRE mods to be good!
Edit: that's probably one of the reasons why Fallout 76 had such a bad release, it was a live game so they couldn't fall back on mods and their staff had to keep it running daily.
I'd say it's probably a little of both.
