How does Bethesda get away with this? Literally every time I have started Skyrim, some game-breaking shit renders the game unplayable. How can the normies like this shit?

Wow fucking owned dude

use the console

Give yourself god mode with the console or something.

That is the problem in the first place. I play it on PS4.

>what is console commands

Load up an older save?

HAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Why would anyone ever play a Bethesda game on console?

>vanilla skyrim
you deserved it

>something that consolefags can never utilize
I could download a mod that makes me invinsible, but that would make trophies unobtainable

The real question would be: how can they even publish these games on consoles, if they won't even work properly?

It seems that I will never learn my lesson. I have suffered through Fallout 3 and New Vegas on PS3, not to mention Fallout 4 on PS4

Yeah, you're not the smartest. At this point I'd say it's deserved, but that'd be mean.

>Blame the customer for a shit product
Faggot

>turning off auto-save
you asked for it user.

>customer knows bethesda is shit especially on consoles
>buys their game on console again
who am i to blame

bait, the game has like three or four autosaves

Everyone's already stated the obvious so I won't rub it in any further. But thinking practically, why not just chuck another explosive bolt to set the first one off? Or I dunno, cast a healing spell as you run past it?
But seriously though, how do you not know to parallel save on a bethesda game? I mean I played skyrim on console but I at least compensated for my sins by saving like a paranoid prepper.

>tfw this is my only save file
The game keeps your 3 most recent autosaves.

It would have, if your PS4 actually had the space to store all of the save files, which steadily grow in size the further you play the game. I deleted all other saves just before this happened, because I thought that linear dungeons would be the simplest aspect of this game. I was dead wrong!

> Only save file

You fucked up, kid. It's been known since forever you need multiple files in any Bethesda game.

I'm currently replaying it on PC. The game routinely crashes, even with the massive unofficial patch.

leave out the other door

>not a pc gamer

kill yourself

If your game is routinely crashing it's because you've installed/uninstalled mods wrong. Fix your load order and run your save files through both the cleaner applications. Google "Skyrim save cleaner".

>it's the games fault that I deleted all my save files because whopping 20MB is too much.

I've only got two mods installed, the legendary patch and SkyUI. Even then, I did sort the mod order.

>it's the games fault that I deleted all my save files because whopping 20MB is too much.
The game shouldn't require the player to make ten backup save files in the first place. There is no defending this kind of broken system.

>Playing any ES game on a console

lmao

The dwarven ballista's explosion activates as soon as the loading screen goes away, and it's instant death. Fortify health -potions and magical armor doesn't do anything in this case. Thank God I'm getting a gaming PC soon.

I never found skyrim that engaging.

it came off as extremely pandering in a bad way, just too scripted and the fucking intro sequence just went on for fucking ever..

Run the save cleaners anyway. Also edit your skse.ini to give yourself a bigger memory cache (common cause of crashes) and enable diagnostics so you'll know why it crashed if it happens again.

Having multiple autosaves is pretty common practice for modern games, especially RPGs, in case the player wants to roll back decisions they've made.
And the player doesn't have to do anything, the game does it automatically, OP specifically went out of his way to delete his saves like a tard.

>he actually bought Fallout 4
Kill yourself.
