Why does it take game developers so long to fix very obvious bugs/issues?

430 views

Not trying to criticize anyone, just curious about the process.

When I report a bug that the developer acknowledges, why does it take so long to fix it? For example, 2 months ago I report a bug where the characters weapon disappears in this very specific area. 2 months later, after several updates, the bug is still there and the response I get is, “we are still trying to find a fix for this”.

Frequently, because all the ways they’ve found so far to fix it break something else instead.

And it’s not necessarily the highest priority bug they’re currently working on.

They might also have very few people working on that aspect of the game depending on what it is.
