I would argue No Man's Sky started the trend of "release now fix later" but I suppose they are not a big AAA studio. I suppose CDPR wasn't really considered as AAA until the release of Witcher 3.

You guys don't have good long-term memory.

Thanks for providing a lot of insight to the conversation.

Insight? You mean 30+ years of game releases?

Just because No Mans Sky was your first computer game, that has zero bearing on, you know, everything else

It doesn't take that much to go and find out about games like AC:Unity and Arkham Knight that predate NMS. In fact I'm pretty sure Ubisoft and EA are the two companies most notorious for "Release broken fix later" to give you a head start on looking into things.

Discourse surrounding broken game launches/Release Broken Fix Later has been around a bit longer than NMS.
