It’s only natural for us to want the best experience a game has to offer.

And let’s be fair, that’s led to some pretty disastrous results over the years.

Just feast your eyes on these five broken games, for example.

Fallout ‘76, admittedly,hascome a long way since its rocky launch.

And to be fair, that’s something Bethesda will never be able to escape from.
