What? They don’t “require” a day-one patch to play. Disconnect a PS5 from the internet, pop a new game in the drive and it will play just fine without any patches, albeit with whatever bugs the game shipped with (which is a whole different story)
I think that's their point, the quality of games has gone down the drain where the golden disc contains basically an alpha version of the game.
They pretty clearly say the “disc does nothing” which is a different, fallacious claim.
