I typically don't buy games on launch, and rarely pre-order. I don't get the point of preordering anymore honestly, ESPECIALLY for digital games. I understand that you may want to preorder to reserve your copy of game so it isn't sold out, which is a bit odd in this day and age considering the vast amount of copies being produced of triple A games, but there's no reason to preorder a game digitally other than the scumbag developers that decide to put in preorder exclusives. That's another discussion, though.
Buying on launch is fair enough, but once again, if you're planning on buying it digitally, then you can wait a day, heck, a few hours on the same day of release to check the general consensus of the game. If you want to be a "special" individual in a sea of the millions that want to say they were one of the first to ever play a new game, hey, who am I to judge. I just don't see the rationale behind it.
Also, to address the quote directly, the price isn't an issue for me, it's that I can't run the bloody thing because my PC is archaic and my consoles are last gen.
It's not that I think you're short on cash or anything, that's just a general smart thing to do. Wait until a heavy discount, because at that point there's bound to be loads of bugfixes and some mods available.
"I saw [Twilight: Eclipse] in theaters with a girl I was dating at the time. I spent more time staring at my toes and wiggling them than I did watching this abomination. When Edward proposed to Blank Face, I finally looked up with a revelation.
I blurted out loud, in a dead silent theater full of teenage girls on opening night "Wait a minute, Edward has no blood flow. How does he get an erection?" I heard several men laughing, and had several girls turn and stare at me.
I did not get laid that night." - Berengier817

Geez you don't have to be a ****, Searz. After playing for 24+ plus hours I have not experienced any bugs AT ALL. This is a very good game and many people like it. I know this is a open forum I started for people to talk about this new release and express their feelings, good or bad, but don't you dare think you can go around all high and mighty with this ******** you posted. Calling people morons for trying to enjoy a game at release and overall trying to steer everyone away from it because you personally have something against it.
I'm sorry I even started this forum, I should have saw this coming for the start. I will longer post on this site and keep to Mobafire's private Skype chat to avoid all the negative posts from negative people. To everyone that did post on this forum that has gotten to know me personally, I'm sorry for this rant. To everyone else, you have turned me away from expressing myself on this site and that sickens me dearly.

Yea, I might have over-reacted, I just felt offended. A few people have already told me to ignore what he says because that's just what he does. My bad but on the other hand, has anyone beaten the main story yet?
Need i point out that a small portion of the fun of bethesda games is encountering bugs? Most of them are humorous, and i have yet to encounter a game breaking one. Telling people not to buy one because of bugs is pretty ****ty. Only thing id actually advise people not to buy a game on launch for is the always online kind of games that always go down on launch.

I definitely agree, I'm sure everyone remembers the hell that was the release of GTA Online. My god that was ***ing terrible, even Metal Gear Online is suffering due to release bugs but hopefully those get ironed out before it is released for the PC version.
Bugs like MissingNo and the types of bugs found in Super Mario World can be beneficial to the game and are fine but crashes, graphical errors, animation errors, voice acting errors, immersion breaking bugs in a role playing game are not the kind of bugs we should be accepting in a game.

Stay away. Go play New Vegas if you wanna play Fallout.

THEN. DON'T. BUY. THEM. ON. RELEASE.
(under the assumption that you did)
Yeah, no bugs. None at all. Nope.
Pretty great review from George as usual, but I think he's a bit too forgiving with the huge number of issues.
Still, what he said is perfectly true: you'd do much better to buy The Witcher 3 or Metal Gear Solid 5 over Fallout 4. Both are clearly superior games (he's got reviews on both of them on the channel btw).
