Once publishers figured out that they could "just patch" games after release, it went a LONG way towards creating the situation that we are in today. No. Having a physical release on day one would go a LONG way toward encouraging a complete as possible release on day one. This was never a huge problem until relatively recent history. It's just lazy to release a game before it's ready. We have to fight against the continued normalization of what are essentially "day one beta releases".
