"Fallout 4" Release Raises Questions About Reviews of Buggy Games (kotaku.com)
RogueyWon writes: Fallout 4, the latest instalment in the long-running video-game series and one of the most hyped titles of the year, was released on 10 November. The game has generally been reviewing well, currently holding a Metacritic score of 89. However, a number of reviewers have noted the very large number of bugs present in all versions of the game and have, in some cases, reflected on the difficulty that these pose for reviewers, despite still awarding positive overall write-ups. Can it be ethical to recommend a product to consumers on the basis of its strengths, despite knowing that it contains serious faults?
And have no bad bugs to report.
Well, roaches usually take a little longer to start collecting around the cheeto dust.
A couple instances of things disappearing and reappearing...
Yeah, that's called blinking. Over the course of 8 hours, humans tend to do it more than twice. Helps keep you from going blind.
...but no hard crashes or getting stuck.
Nerdcore! No sleeping for at least another 12 hours! Oh, and towels work best to keep fat from sticking to vinyl...
Either way it's going to be a bunch of crazies waving things around and talking about the end of life as we know it!
