      A lot of people down voting you don’t know how comedically bad the internet situation in Germany is.

      I understand, when I first learned of it I couldn’t believe it either.

    That’s not a physical edition then. This is the reason, I am not buying consoles anymore. Too many day-one patches.

      Day one patches have been the standard for over a decade, and they are as common on the PC as they are on consoles…

    Nothing new. The timeline for physical games being created is always several months prior to release using the final build at the time. The only confusing part seems to be that the game can be used offline until a new patch? If the system is not online at all how will it know a new patch exists? If the game checks in when booted then thats not offline either.
