Console patch delay when Sony/Microsoft have same day certification

Just wondering why console has to wait weeks for an incremental patch to fix the markarth patch that has ruined everything outside of questing? Sony and Microsoft have offered same day certification for over 2 and a half years. But we have to wait and deal with an embarrassing patch I feel for pc players getting shafted by the stadia certification process. Its disrespectful to the people who puts money in your pockets you guys should be working and getting the fixes sent out quicker than another 2 weeks

    Ah, Stadia.

    The one time PC and Console players stand united together against an enemy.

    Somehow i have the feeling that this same day certification is not for free and is more expansive than the regular one. Keep in mins that console companys work for their own pocket and they likely never offer anything for free.

    Your point?
    We pay or have paid for a working product.
    If an update causes the product to no longer function and is also the product of said company. Then now things need to be fixed and remedied.
    If money is required to change hands so be it.
    This patch should never have been released.
    If the company needs to pay to expedite the fix, then so be it.
    Both console and PC require a working product, it's on zos to remedy the situation.
    However history has shown us they really don't care so long as they can sell you your next fix...

    Most likely it's due to ZOS not paying the extra to push through patches.

    Smite released same day patches as PC(and still does) if a tiny company like Hirez (who has a terrible record of chasing the $ and failing) can release same day patches then Bethesda/ZOS can

    but do you really want to have to find the workarounds on dayone? or let PC find then and let yuo use them 2 weeks later?

    Last I read Sony doesn’t charge developers for patch updates anymore. They haven’t for quite a while (at least 4 years).
