Risen's engine is much more stable than a game's like Fallout, but the number of bugs associated with quests at the game's launch is much higher than Fallout's was. Point in case - the "main" quest in the Bandit camp where you talk to Sam, and can tell him that "Brogar has been dealt with", even though he clearly has not… breaks that section of the quest.
Anyhow, I digress - you're clearly a diehard fan who doesn't want to see problems with the game, which is your choice. I choose to look at it objectively as an old hardcore gamer who likes certain styles, and who dislikes bugs - when I can't play a certain way (i.e. the class I want) or I run into bugs that break primary quests, I notice it.
Note: I find it humorous that you yourself said "Must be a bug or something, errr", and then go and claim the game is virtually bug free. The game does have issues with certain quests when the player doesn't do things in the right order, or as expected. I'm not knocking the game, but it is far from a "1-bug game".
BWHAHA wow, fallout 3 was and still is full of bugs, and crashes so is Oblivion, stalker, hell, even linear shooters and console games (Batman: Arkham Asylum, even madden, etc..) have quite a few bugs at launch. Did i say there were not problems? Can u read? But, this game is very stable and bug free compared to most. Reading is an issue for you, I never said it had no bugs, just that it had a small amount compared to games of its like on the market.
How long have you been gaming? This game is a model of stability compared to gaves released, especially on PC, the last couple years.
Expecting a game like this to have no bugs, is you living in dream land, especially a PC game. Taht game does not exist.
Do u normally pull facts out of your butt? Lets see your facts about the number of quests bugs compared to fallout 3? I suggest you go to the F03 forums, after 7, yes, 7 patches, the game still has issues, on PC and console.
On top of this, you have a small budget developer, with limited resources making a large open world RPG of this scope, when devs with ten times the resources and backing cannot make a game without bugs. I think you need a dose of reailty.
