Problems in the Ranks

Problems in the Ranks,
I fear my life as a gamer is drawing to an end. The powers at be have lined up the burning arrow that will send me to a new life, a life devoid of a chance to live another reality, find new wonders I never thought possible, and to meet new characters and unforgettable personalities. From Alex the kid to Donkey Kong, From Baulders Gate to Dragon Age From FF7 to Half Life, From Medal of Honour to Fallout New Vegas I’ve played them all and then some. You may think it a wasted childhood though it is our outlet, many of you would relate and reminisce. I don’t blame Bethesda or Obsidian they are pawns in a Capatalist society, One where the almighty dollar is put before the consumer. A sad reality in this day and age. No amount of complaining will change this, if anything it will only get worst. The people at both the aformentioned studio’s know this better then any one, they still must take up the yoke of burden from their bosses almighty bottom line and with probable regret release their game’s unfinished. This will continue into the future and soon the problems we have all seen with New Vegas will be the norm. At the end of the day, its not the programmer’s, testers or studio’s fault it’s just the world we live in. A dog eat dog world full of deadline’s, politics and a industrial war fought over our money. And as we all know "War, War never changes”

don't preorder
don't buy on release
don't get fooled by all the marketing hype
if the reviews say it's buggy don't buy new, just rent or buy SH
let a few companies go belly up
let some of the people involved be late with bank payments
let them sweat a bit
it should be respect buyers = money, no respect = bankruptcy
it doesn't, but it should
it's not their fault, it's ours

P.S. Obsidian really disappointed me with their latest releases. What good is it that they make great stories, dialogue, char interaction etc. if you can't experience it properly?

Bugs can be patched, but you won't get a patch that rewrites the main campaign to make it a better story.
Obsidian has made (IMO) the third best game in the series (behind the first two, but undeniably built on the shoulders of FO3).
There is a parallel here; The Witcher and MOTB were both built from the foundation of Bioware's NWN.
