Hey there, I was really excited when Bethesda announced Fallout 4. I jumped on the excitement right away, hoping to snag it before it dropped. As the release date approached, I figured buying it would be a smart move—though I wasn’t ordering it, just avoiding the toxic system. When it finally came out, I still hesitated. Why? Because Bethesda has a history of bugs, and I’ve seen games like FNV and FO3 struggle. I kept waiting months, wondering if the GOTY edition would fix everything. How many bugs were actually patched at launch? Is it stable now, or is it still holding on by a thread? Thanks for your thoughts!
Don’t understand the game you heard about—I finished 40 hours before my first bug appeared. My gun vanished, I reloaded my quick save and everything was fine again. Just note I saved it at midnight the day it was spotted on Steam. Grab it if you enjoyed FO3 or NV, you won’t be let down.
Already have FNV and FO3. Completed FNV twice but stuck in that section of FO3. Moving on to FO4. However, fixing it now would mean handling many bugs similar to FO3.
The Witcher 3 earned Game Of The Year in 2015, though it's unclear if Bethesda officially recognized it. For a title that feels like a GOTY hit with all DLC, I think it's unlikely to be released soon—unless Fallout 4 finally gets its last major update. I suggest grabbing the game now and taking pleasure, and consider purchasing a season pass if you're aiming for that special experience.
I believe the game has fewer bugs compared to Fallout 3. Fallout 3 is no longer Bethesda's primary title, so it hasn't received many updates. Plus, advancements in technology meant better games were being developed, which might explain why not every issue was fixed. This doesn't mean the game isn't good, but it does feel a bit let down since Fallout 3 was an important entry for many fans.
