I would argue No Man’s Sky started the trend of “release now fix later” but I suppose they are not a big AAA studio. I suppose CDPR wasn’t really considered as AAA until the release of Witcher 3.
It doesn’t take that much to go and find out about games like AC:Unity and Arkham Knight that predate NMS. In fact I’m pretty sure Ubisoft and EA are the two companies most notorious for “Release broken fix later” to give you a head start on looking into things.
Discourse surrounding broken game launches/Release Broken Fix Later has been around a bit longer than NMS.

You guys don’t have good long-term memory.
Thanks for providing a lot of insight to the conversation.
Insight? You mean 30+ years of game releases?
Just because No Mans Sky was your first computer game, that has zero bearing on, you know, everything else
