There needs to be a better way of updating games (lemmy.world)

How can it be 2023 and this console still fails to keep all of your games updated, or at least offering a button to manually update every game installed by a single click.

It feels like it only checks for updates for the last 15 games or so you played, which is an upgrade over the like 5 on the ps4, but all of a sudden I want to play rb6s with friends, which I haven't played in months and I gotta wait for like 30 GBs of updates first.

Also there's no easy way to update games in the library at all. Select game, open the games page, click play game.. wait for 5 seconds, then close game again. And if you have a disk Version, you even have to insert the disk first.

How come my phone is easily able to keep 200+ apps up2date with ease, yet a home console that's plugged in and connected to the Internet at all times struggles to do so.

yeah, this sucks. but i also understand why they would try to limit their bandwidth.

my entirely blind guess is that they want to limit the amount of people who immediately start auto-downloading an update once it is released, but for some reason they are unable to do a download scheduling system (to even out the number of consecutive downloaders) like the one Steam has had for ages
