Why do Nintendo and AAA games take so long to load?
Why don't they use lazy loading, and if they do then why does it take so long to load something like Minecraft legends on Nintendo Switch?
I would also ask why are patches and updates take long to download and install on PS3 and PS4 (don't know if it improved on PS5).

And PS4 is not much better - base games usually are downloaded at a reasonable speed, but patching takes forever.
At the same time any free linux distro will pull gigabytes of updates so fast that I'm scared that it will melt my ethernet cable - but sony, a huge corporation can't
