Games should be 100% complete and finished when released. That would solve this and also games that released nearly unplayable, but years later have improved (but how much?). You want a good review score? Give the devs enough time and resources to release it when it’s ready, not when you want to hit an important release window. You get one chance.
Obvious exceptions would be major game-breaking bugs that somehow weren’t found in time and are then patched. But other than that, games should be done when released, and reviewed at that time. You want to add content and tinker with it years after? It’s called an expansion (or DLC), and it’s reviewed separately.
