Allowing updates is what made everything go to shit, imo. It should be like older consoles. Whatever you stamped on the disc is what you will be releasing. End of story. Shipping broken (or literally nothing at all, in some cases) is now the standard. Yes games are complex.... they always were. if you could fix them after release, you can also fix them before. It's just greed that keeps one from doing so.

Fuck digital distribution on consoles, fuck dlc, fuck updates. They ruined a lot of things.
