Just one little rant. How often did Skyrim sell? 20 millions,. 25, 30? Why couldn't Bethesda invest a little bit of that money into the technics.The graphics look (specially the character/face animations) extremely dated. Furthermore the game is full of bugs and glitches and ugly textures. It's like they knew the game would sell a lot anyway and didn't bother to spend money on this (and they are probabably right....)
Exactly the main point of my frustrations with the game and especially the company (Other than the dialogue tree and the skill/faction systems and missing survival mode). They are expected to earn around $750 million from F4. And knowing that they have less people working on the game compared to Witcher 3 just blows my mind with all those resources. Goes to show which company is more ambitious and passionate, spending a much larger percentage of their worth on their game. With those kind of numbers Bethesda could have easily hired an army of testers and the best engine designers/artists and writers in the business and make an absolute masterpiece.
It really stings as an old Bethesda fan (playing their games since Daggerfall). I am becoming more and more pushed away from them, and their - increasingly annoying - marketing talks ("Our most ambitious project!" Really Todd?.. That's... sad). Anyway, I should calm down before I get angrier
