The COVID pandemic would have intensified a problem in the video game industry that has been present since the seventh generation.
The video game industry has been experiencing scandalous moments since the seventh generation in terms of bugs, since in recent years it has been seen as video games tend to have more bugs than everthis being something that has always crashed the fans.
Given this, it must be said that in past generations, in case this happened, there were two options due to the lack of updates: or the product was withdrawn from the market and replaced by a new corrected versionthis being something that many fans applauded and that even led the studios to change the copies already purchased, or it was completely ignored even if the game was endlessthis being what Digimon World fans experienced.
Day 1 patches are being one of the biggest obstacles in current video games
Despite all that has been said, it should be noted that today’s updates allow correct these problems sin necesidad e tener que llevar a cabo grandes inversiones como el primer caso señalado. However, this has also led to many studios release games without finishing polishingso day one patches are almost a standard instead of an exception, which don’t feel good at allespecially since if there is no Internet connection for whatever reason, the game will be bugged until it is remedied.
This has been intensified with the Covid, seeing that either games were delayed or released as they were, being the first option another very applauded. And first of all, the former Bioware Director, Aaryn Flynn has spoken with VGC, stating that Players are quite fair when expressing their disgust by the state in which some video games arrive.
Given this, Flynn points out that there should be more sincerity from video game studios when talking about projects. These words are quite curious if we take into account that Bioware belongs to EAbeing this a company that has always chosen to make great income at the expense of launching games as they are, this being the case of Anthem, from Bioware.
