Fair enough, but not all of those games' problems are technical. A lot of them just either fundamentally suck, or are technically well built but don't offer anything truly interesting.

I understand this is subjective; but why would I want to play Ghost of Tsushima when I could be playing Hades, Hotline Miami or Undertale?

Oh no for sure I love a good indie game too. It's just that if the ONLY reason someone would stay away from AAA games are due to the initial bugs and whatnot then they should try coming back after they're fixed up a bit. But absolutely nothing wrong with not being interested and just rocking out some indie games.
