door in Wayrest is not bug, you agro the crocodiles in the water because you damage them through that grate from above when fighting skeevers, and then they stuck you in combat.
it is indeed bug but it's the classic combat bug that sticks on you for long time and for long distance, is not a specific dungeon door bug
and about this long time long distance combat bug, that's also in Cyro, it happens that you heal someone and they keep in combat, keeping you too

Tampering with code is not as easy as one might think. You need to locate where the issue is happening, why it is happening, then whether it might affect other classes or create further issues if you tamper with it. Sometimes it is best to just let it be, specially if it's not gamebreaking as with the node issues. I presume node positioning is calculated dynamically, so there is a chance trying to fix the buried nodes might make the rest of them float up into the sky. I'm speculating of course, but it is likely the reason they haven't fixed that is because it might cause more problems, and in the end, they're just a bunch of nodes when there are plenty others.

Gamebreaking bugs are a completely different issue and should be adressed, and are likely adressed. Sometimes it's just not that easy. Not trying to defend ZOS, mind you, I don't work for them, but I am a programmer after all and I know a bit that there is no such thing as a 5 minute fix. I wish there was. Just spent a week fixing an issue myself that was ultimately fixed with a few lines of code, but to get there I had to spend hours reading code I had not written and making a lot of tests to understand how it worked and then plan the best approach to fix the issue. When you're working with multiple classes it can be quiet challenging just to trace the code.

it's simple: fixing bugs doesn't make money (until we talk about bugs that diminish profits like broken crown store or "free chapter for everyone")

To be fair to the ZOS team, managing a game of this size takes no small amount of work from a dedicated team, and they've been fairly good about putting out content patches every 3 months that usually shake up the meta a bit and introduce new stuff. We're getting a massive overhaul to CP, one of the most requested features for a while now, along with balance changes and new dungeons, and the patch after this will introduce Companions alongside a huge story expansion. Now, with that said, I agree that it's particularly egregious how small but obnoxious bugs have a tendency to persist despite multiple reports and a rather sizable portion of the player base becoming aware of them; Wayrest dungeon is absolutely RIDDLED with bugs and has been for years, blockcasting feels terrible, and there's a FREAKIN' CORN BASKET in Red Ruby Cave in Cyrodiil that's marked "steal" despite everything else in there being free to take. Who staked a claim to this corn basket in the middle of nowhere? Why can't I simply grab some corn to go on my way through the delve? This injustice against corn cannot be allowed to stand.

I get you saying they are working hard....... But some of these bugs have been since launch and ruin the game experience. VMA is one where so many stupid things happen at most of the stages along with DSA.

Yes producing content is cool, rehashing old content for people to re run is meh, but rather than pushing out your next dlc spend time fixing old stuff especially when you buff stuff from it and want people to go there.

And as far as them trying hard, they gave a test server where a lot of stuff gets reported. Rather than. Fix issues they let it go from test to live and most of the time that doesn't get fixed. If stuff is broken it should be fixed on pts before going live, even if that means it is delayed a week or two. These bugs get into the game because the devs don't play their own game and if they do they ignore it even though a huge outcry is to fix the game.

I haven't played in a year, game is too biggy for me. I just got a ps5 curious if that helps at all........ But the way the devs rush to fix crown store issues the same day but have broken content such as wayrest a day 1 dungeon.......... That just shows where their "hard work" actually is.

Also just look at cyrodil it has been messed up since light patch years ago. People reported that and they ignored it and kept moving on update after update after update. Now they have done so many updates they have trouble finding code that was broke back then. We used to be able to have huge fights without lag, now you try to fight more than 10 people and people are lagging so bad.

Again the devs need to fix broken stuff and stop putting out new stuff that is broken.
