We have multiple generations of developers releasing like this. With a few rare exceptions (which are the only games from 15+ years ago most people remember), all games release buggy. Even on console, for every Super Mario Bros. that played the way it was supposed to, there were ten unplayably buggy examples of licensed shovelware. And half of "Nintendo Hard" was just that these games were janky as fuck.

Games are hard to make. Ridiculously huge and complex games are even harder to make. If you think you can do better, please do so.

dont you see the inherit problem that these devs all themselves created with the increasing cost, increasing scope, increasingly forcing bigger retention spans? these games dont need to be this needlessly huge and even than there is no need to have them almost broken (have you SEEN how cd project red always releases their games?)

i never said it was that much better back than, its just much easier to have all of this garbage available than it was back than cause now its flooding the online stores

and of course "do it better yourself than", i dont have to be a mastercoder to recognise subpar quality, i dont need to be a masterchef to know when something tastes bad
