I can understand your frustration, but I think you're being a little bit harsh. A game of this complexity, to make it perfect would have taken years of playtesting to eliminate every single bug in it. It gets to a point of diminishing returns as to how long you want to spend testing the game. I'm not for a minute advocating that companies release buggy products, but I don't think this product is anywhere near as buggy as you make it sound. I've beaten it twice, played a total of 200+ hours of it and haven't had a bug at all though I do know that more than a few exist. That's what patches are for I guess. It's probably more the fact that the bugs happen at inopportune times - like when you forgot to press the Q button to quicksave. That I can understand...
