I guess ppl needs to realize that sometimes devs needs a big slap on they ego. Because if everyone is just praise then they will not care. To make the game better. And D4 is a perfect example of this.
You have not spent much time on the industry side of gaming making. Devs get hammered constantly. Even a great release is a deluge of hate mail and criticism.

Since the PS5 release, which was 2 months ago, we've had 4 major patches and 9 hotfix patches (still waiting on Hotfix 10 to fix what Patch 4 screwed up). And in those 4 major patches, there have been 1000+ fixes each. No game should need to fix 1000 things in each patch. That's not a point of pride, it's an embarrassment
While the PS5 launch has had some issues, the PC side has actually been solid. It is well past a beta and a decent game on the PC. Saying it should have never been released (I am assuming you mean at all) is a bit hyperbolic considering that the PC side has been largely a great release.
As for the number of fixes, the VAST majority of those have been dialog typo's and really very minor, things that did not directly effect game play in game stopping ways. The number sounds massive bit if you drilled it down to just "serious" bugs, the number is vastly lower.
