New games come with more complications?

Have you noticed how in the last couple of weeks there are several new games that suffered some serious issues? This makes me wonder if games these days are just a piece of crap or that they´re released too quickly just to meet a certain deadline. Either way it´s not fun for gamers to play games that are full of bugs and glitches, even worse when you´re even unable to play a game at all!


Does this affect the entire game or just one or two modes? In CoD Advanced Warfare I´ve had no issues in single player or exo survival, but in multiplayer there are some serious issues and sometimes that makes it close to impossible to play. I´ve had matches where there was so much lag that hardly anyone could walk away from their spawn location, I´d say that´s pretty bad! In the Master Chief Collection there have also been issues with multiplayer, some players have a lot of issues getting into a match and if that´s the main reason why you play Halo games then you´re shit out of luck! As far as I´ve heard single player is ok, so once more it´s multiplayer that affects the players and keeps them from fully enjoying the game.


So it´s just multiplayer? I don´t think so, Assassin´s Creed Unity shows us that single player also has issues and that there are some glitches in the game that makes it a lot less fun to play the game. For example moments where you only see the eyes and the teeth of Arno (main protagonist in AC Unity) instead of his entire face. The last time I saw that in a game was in Vampires the Masquerade: Bloodlines and that has been quite some years for me when I last played that game! Maybe some people find it funny and I guess for a moment it is, but when you truly try to enjoy the story then it sucks that this type of stuff happens!


This means that developers shouldn´t release their game too early? I think developers should release their games when they´re ready, because releasing a game full of bugs and glitches is just annoying. You don´t buy games for this and eventhough I can understand that sometimes something that doesn´t belong in the game finds itself in the game, then I still find it unacceptable that this happened to three big titles within two weeks! Nothing is perfect and I don´t expect games to be perfect, but this just seems sloppy and rushed to say the least. I´m not saying that I feel betrayed or anything but it´s a shame that your experience with a game starts so negative, that´s not fun for a gamer and not fun for developers to see their game in this state. So instead of trying to release a game on a certain date you might want to first check if your game is actually ready, no need to release a game that isn´t ready! People will be upset if a game is delayed but it´s better to delay a game than to release a game and then get a shit load of complaints how much it sucks!
