I can’t claim to know the full story, but the rumors I have heard said, half the QoL fixes in latest patches were from the developers of the mobile ports (Video Games Deluxe). Grove Street did such a piss poor job on first releases, quality wise, that you have to question whether they even did any QA. I can understand a bug that is a corner or even edge case, but literally even some of the cutscenes for main plot missions would not even render correctly at launch. Iirc it was later determined Grove street ran the games thru an ai upscaler that broke everything and they just said ship. Their logos were more prominent than usual, and they literally showed the least amount of work out of any of the dev teams, I am honestly outraged that they are upset. I hope this has the Streisand effect and they are blackballed from the industry entirely.
