patches and updates are an annoying fact of life when you're playing Modern video games what but sometimes those patches and stuff really make a difference here are the video games that changed so much since release they feel like completely different games now let's start off with one of the best examples from the last few years at number 10 with cyberpunk 2077 2. 0 patch look this game is obviously a video game success story what released as a pretty buggy oddly unfinished game that just didn't feel great to play depending on the platform you were on really just ended up becoming one of the best games of the year the 2. 0 patch released about 3 years later and completely overhauled combat progression how skills work how guns feel and basically turned a pretty good game that was messy into just a solid great one and the developers made the right call dropping the patch before the Phantom Liberty expansion and releasing a product that felt like it matched the really good quality of their previous game The Witcher 3 the 2.
0 patch was like the big nail in the coffin really finishing things off over the course of months and years before that incremental updates and improvements were made but the 2. 0 patch really kind of put a bow on it all it was big it was substantial and the developers are still dropping updates the uh 2.
