Starfield

I feel like you can’t have a busted/broken/buggy games list without a Bethesda game, should the opportunity arise. And oof, was Starfield all three of those adjectives. Everyone’s experience is different and valid, but I’ve encountered a sizable amount of issues in my hundreds of hours with the space-exploring role-playing game. There was the usual stuff. You know, quests bugging out so you can’t complete them orpartner AI breaking during fights, causing them to just casually stand around in the midst of gunfire. There was also silly stuff, too, likeasteroids and cities and forests following players across the cosmos. Then there was the frustrating stuff that included the game crashing at least once every 45 minutes or so during every other four-to-five hour session of mine. Starfield had me reaching for the stars to find the patience because despite cooking in the oven for about eight years, it still needed more time to bake.
