The Outer Worlds - 10 Reasons It's Better Than Fallout 4

10. It's Not A Buggy Mess

Bethesda bugs aren't as cute as you think.

Thankfully, Obsidian's focus on a smaller experience means that The Outer Worlds very rarely has any bugs in it at all. There's occasional clipping and UI issues, but there's nothing that makes turning the game off necessary.

When you compare this level of polish to how Fallout 4 launched, and indeed how every single Bethesda RPG launches, it's pretty laughable.

Just because a game is big doesn't mean that it can be unpolished. Texture issues, crashes, saves being deleted and much much more plagued Fallout 4 upon release and none of the issues seemed to be actively worked on.

It's not like either game is particularly graphically intense either, so it really doesn't make sense why consumers keep supporting Bethesda's lack of quality control.

This is a long-standing problem with all of Bethesda's games, and it's got to the point where something needs to change.
