Here’s another good one for my personal PlayStation 4 wishlist, and all the Pigeon Forge vacation rentals in the wold isn’t going to make me right with the world if PS4 is released without this addressed and dealt with:

3) Stupid glitches in otherwise near-perfect games.

I know this one has less to do with hardware power and more to do with developer discipline and publisher scheduling, but it’s annoying nonetheless.

Take a nice next-gen game like Oblivion for example. Is it a great game with unparalleled depth? Sure. But it has many flaws that take the bloom off the rose after a while.

For example, after hours and hours of laboring in the game to become the head of the thieves guild, your payoff is *spoiler alert* becoming the Grey Fox yourself. Well, that’s fine… except that then there’s simply no more to it than that. You can enter the hidden thieves guild meeting places, but nothing ever goes on there. The quests and subplots are at an then. It’s merely, “oh, you’re the Gray Fox now” and that’s it.

You mean I put in all those hours just to have nothing happen after I become the Gray Fox? Forget that!

This sense of emptiness after a lot of work invades many other professions, also. Become the head of the assassin’s guild and get paid… about 200 gold a month ferrying orders from the Night Mother to the guild leader. That’s what I became the head of the assassin’s guild for? A mere 200 gp per month, after all that work and I already have tens and hundreds of thousands in gold already earned? Bite me. That’s just not a good payoff.

Things like this could stand improvement, even in games that, otherwise, are masterpieces.
