I simply do not buy games on release.
I won't even buy Silksong on release - wait at least a couple of weeks for the impatient to beta test it for you.
It's kind of bullshit to call people impatient if they buy a game when the publisher says the game is ready for release. That's on the punisher, not the consumer. While everyone is fine with pushing the blame on the consumer for buying games at release, I'm over here shaking my fist at the publisher. I get the whole idea of being upset that purchasing on release is perpetuating poor practices, but don't be sloppy with your aim. This is squarely on the publisher.
The old adage is relevant here:
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.
