Bethesda promises to leave Skyrim’s “fun” bugs unresolved

If you love amusing game glitches, you’re going to love The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. That’s because Bethesda isn’t planning to fix them.

“We try to solve most of it, we’re sensitive to a lot of it,” producer Todd Howard told Joystiq.

“There is a subset of that where we say ‘Well, that’s what can happen.’ If there’s entertainment value in that, whatever it is, we’ll leave a lot of it. If it’s gonna break the game, or unbalance the game in some way, we do try to solve it. If the solution is gonna make the game less fun … well, hey, leave it in. It’s their game,” said Howard.

Insert predictable comment here about Bethesda not planning to fix any of the game’s bugs anyway, haha, fooled you, herpity derpity, etc.

He’s kind of got a point, though – I mean, nobody forgets their first glimpse of Red Dead Redemption’s donkey-woman. They probably still wake up screaming.

Skyrim launches on 11 November 2011.
