The quality control had to be much higher because if they released a buggy mess on a physical medium, the company lost a lot of money when the games were returned (Look up the Atari ET game for reference). Before digital downloads the games were written on a cartridge or a disc. It was possible 20 years ago to release a game and it be damn near bug free why not now? The digital download has enabled developers to release a half assed game, and then tell the player that "the day one patch will fix it". I sort of mess about in the game and will only sit down for a full PT when the main issues are fixed. I mean is that even possible? I use to have a rule to wait for the aggressive patching to stop or a year to pass before bothering to play a game seriously.
