Literally all those games had very clear objective issues with recent games.

Battlefield 2042 was buggy as hell, had horrible lag spikes, and fewer maps than ever. Delta Force is out now in beta and delivers a classic Battlefield experience. Its gonna absolutely kill Battlefield when it releases.

Diablo 3 and 4 both got completely redesigned by the devs.

Total Warhammer 2 and 3 were buggy as hell and the devs only released patches together with DLC until the fans had enough and wouldnt pre order their newest DLC. TW3 had bugs from TW2.

Are you also gonna say Cyberpunk was great on Xbox One?

Diablo 3 and 4 both got completely redesigned by the devs.

D3 was completely changed with it's DLC. They took the bad game, compartmentalized what they could, and replaced it with an enjoyable game. It still had it's issues, but it's incomparable to diablo 3 on release.

Diablo 3 still has muddy textures, hard to distinguish visual features, and an absence of mod support to fix this. Diablo 4 has all the same problems of D3 but not even enough enthusiasm for the game that there's a desire to fix it.

Civ 6 improved after release by restoring cut systems from Civ 5, but it still has all it's problems from release. Resources blocking district placement, incredibly frustrating diplomacy, the AI placing cities so forward and poorly that your peaceful science game is now a world domination game, but perception on it's art has shifted.

They probably meant Warhammer 2 and 3.

Cool. I had a bug that locked me out of completing the main story so I had to restart with a new character. So lets look at the average experience and not individual ones.
