And yes, there are bugs, and yes, the reviewers took note of them this time around.

It turns out that as writers - and humans - lessons are learned from the past this time around there was very little rush to review and the scores that The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Dawnguard received were more in keeping with what it deserves. Even the reviewers who moved as quickly as they could to get their reviews online did so at the expense of a thorough play-through and, as a result, failed to take note of the bugs that they did not see because they did not play the game with the usual measure of intensity and completeness that the process normally receives. When I sat down last year to write the Intro to my walkthrough/guide for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim I opened it with the observation that the rush to rate the game as a perfect 10 out of 10 game review score even before it had been released was more than a bit premature.
