HEe...
Normal users NEED a automatic patch system. Like windowsupdate, or steam.
ME, you and powers users dont need that, and hate that, but we are less than 8% of users*
As a "windowsupdate" alike tool, Steam work ok. Ok, Its somewhat slow starting games for some reason, but works.
And yes, we, the power users and coders, miss zimbillions of features, but normal users dont need that features.
note: *usability its often a tradeoff for flexibility
