>>15435291I don't see the issue. I played one game just last year that ended on a cliff hanger due to being rushed to a deadline and deciding to cut content so they could polish what was there a bit more, then a standard patch was released for free that added the last fourth or so of the game a few months later.
They just have to of planned ahead for it in some way. Animal Crossing also made it so when the JP version got a 1.1 patch as a bugfix for some big glitch they didn't expect, and the 1.0 versions weren't allowed to communicate with the 1.1 version until they downloaded the patch too. The 1.1 version game even told you this whenever you tried to do multiplayer. Patch 1.0, and bam, it could then connect to 1.1 just fine.
