Skyrim was not playable to any extent. The game moves on something like 1-3 frames per second. Meaning I was not able to play it for a LONG time until it got patches.

And if a company is lazier, does not mean Bethesda gets off the hook. That is like saying Activision are not greedy because EA are worse.

And at the very leeast EA games are playable. At the very least other devs game the game work.
