No. Game should be on final form since day one. This is not even debatable.
Updating reviews would be like suporting one of the worst practises the industry as, which is releasing games inconmplete.
Besides do you even see how unpratical that is? They'll keep on reviewing the same games through the entire generation? They'll everytime a game has a patch? Cuz some of them have patches very often.
Sorry OP don't agree with you. Updating reviews is anti ethical, unpratical and not fair for those companies who, you know, actually deliver their games complete. |
Not that unpractical if reviews know why and how much they deducted for what. If I were a reviewer I would have a system in place so when I review a game I know exactly why I gave it the score I did. If a reviewer does not do this he is trash anyways and must just attach an arbitrary number to each game as he feels.
How is it unethical? Game was this good at date X, now it is this good at date Y. To me its unethical for them to say a game is bad or mediocre when in reality if a consumer purchases it, it is quite good.
Like I have said in this thead several times devs would still lose alot of sales if the game was reviewed poorly at launch, people wont buy it at launch and by the time it is fixed many consumers will have moved on to the next big thing. By the time the score gets updated used copies would be readily available. This helps the consumer, which again is the point of a review... to inform the consumer before they purchase.
