i think it’s unfair to criticize rockstar for requiring switch users to download important software data for a game they never had to bring to the switch.
they could have made it download only to avoid the physical release backlash, but they decided to release it anyway. they could have avoided the switch altogether to avoid the “required microsd” backlash, but they decided to release the game anyway.
switch users should be happy they’re being given options even if the options they’re being given aren’t as convenient as they would like.
if we’re unhappy with the option we’re being given, either don’t buy the game or we should program it for the switch ourselves.
if we don’t buy it, don’t be surprised that the third party support stops for games that are inconvenient to bring to the switch hardware.
gaming has always been an expensive hobby, and so i think it’s ridiculous to be upset that some games will require you to buy a microsd. they aren’t that expensive (compared to gaming as a whole).
honestly, from a gaming company’s perspective, why wouldn’t they want the game to be able to be played more easily? why wouldn’t they want the game to work on any switch regardless of whether you have a microsd or not?
they decided to work with what they had in terms of hardware. we should be praising them for working with the hardware at all, instead of critisizing them for trying and not meeting our expectations. if we don’t support their efforts, then they’ll consider the hardware too troublesome for their time.

Enjoy your loot boxes and micros. It's that attitude that we shoudl be "grateful" that they are giving us their game that lets them walk all over you.
Why should we be grateful to a company that is charging us $10 extra dollars for a game for the sole reason that it costs more to be on cartridges. And then for that very said game not be on the larger cartridge that woudl allow it to not need a download at all.
Wouldn't it be great if Pizza places did this. Charge you $10 for delivery and then only deliver it halfway to your house. YOu have to go out and pick it up there.
