OMG OMG OMG!!! The peasants will expect quality now! We’re doomed! Doomed!
Not only quality, but they’ll also expect a released game to be finished at launch!
In my area of business, 'being finished" is a part of “quality”.
I.e., something that’s unfinished, cannot be said to have high quality

Lets be honest… most studios and individual devs wanna make awesome games.
A lot are just forced to release at a certain (bad) time due to shareholders etc
