Why do strange bugs pop up every time there's an update?

I used to work as a programmer at a small company specializing in digital transformation (DX). I fully appreciate the challenges involved in identifying the root causes of bugs and fixing them—and I can only imagine how much more difficult that process becomes when dealing with video games.

Yet, we often see bugs that were supposedly fixed reappear after an update, or encounter bizarre glitches seemingly unrelated to anything mentioned in the patch notes, all while bugs that ought to be simple to resolve persist. Does this sound familiar? Why do these bugs occur, linger, and resurface?

Furthermore, just how many bugs and issues are the developers aware of, and when will they actually be fixed?

    I assume that's because the live service team is way too small, and the focus is entirely on producing new content with too little time to test. Big companies trying to maximize revenue by limiting expenditure type of stuff. 

    Right now, the game just feels sloppy. Nothing really gamebreaking, but we went from a sleek package at release to something where a lot of little things don't work or display as they should.
