It's not about the type of game. The new standard should be about releasing a finished game. Not a buggy mess with day one patches.
So pressing unfinished games on disks is fine for you? They should release a finished game. What if the console shop or server goes offline? How can you play it then? For preservation, day one patches are a nightmare.
I'm glad to see the trend of releasing more games for pc beside their console counterpart rising. It makes preservation easier.
Even if you press finished game, you still find tons of issues to fix before the release. It should be treated as bonus polishing time though, not time to finish the game.
