    People nowadays forget how shitty software used to be at launch.

    Or so I’m told. I’m not actually of the generation that remembers software without an auto-updater.

      Both are true, really. AAA software was usually better, because they couldn’t assume that they could easily supply updates later. Also, software was generally not as complex, so the bugs weren’t as easily introduced.

      Bargainbin software was always horrible, but even worse when there weren’t any large review aggregators about.
