What Conclusion Can You Draw From This?

Skyrim Hardware and Software Issues Subforums:

PC 2,279

XBOX 360 456

Playstation 3 211

I can't even go to the main forum cause it's full of happy console players talking about the game and I've been spending the entire weekend troubleshooting crashes.

That PC users have a huge variety of systems and configurations that tend to be more difficult to release games on.

And that is why normal developers put the game through QA so it gets properly tested and 99% of the bugs gets squashed. Some of the bugs are so apparent in Skyrim that they would have been noticed in the first minutes of testing IF THEY EVER HAD DONE THE TESTING (like how the y-axis depends on fps.)

QUOTED FOR TRUTH.

It is not as though we've found obscure and hard to replicate bugs, they are EVERYWHERE. It is at though they didn't test the PC version.

Or the shadows. Or the mouse acceleration. Or the various bugs in the menus and dialogue.
