Another question would be if you are to vote for a game at it's release state or a patched state.
For me, it is ‘release + 1 or 2 patches’. I like to play games I am excited about right away, so it used to be purely ‘as released’ ... though if major patches came through before I finished I would be forgiving.
But once about a month passes, and certainly 3 months, the game ‘Is what it is’. It is nice to get patches like that, but for me it is essentially like the VtM: Bloodlines community patches. Sure it is cool, but not really part of the game.
Which leads to the other thing for me - things like mods, community content, and so on ... simply do not exist as part of the ‘main game’. No way should they be considered in ‘scoring’ a game - sure you can give points for the ABILITY to mod, but not the impact of a mod on the game.
