And people expect to have a decently working release from day1?
Not a big player myself, and I mostly play older game I can buy for less than $15 but every single time I have heard about a big game launch in the last decade, the games were released in early beta quality, crippled with bugs according to the tests and news.
You hear about them _because_ they launched in a poor state; not because _every_ game launches like this.
Yes; there have been some pretty high profile cases of games launching in terrible state, and Day 0 patches have become an industry standard, but acting like all (or even most) of big games launch like this is just sampling bias.
I'd expect you'd have to play offline, which might be a nonstarter when the disc drive costs extra, and live service games are popular.
