I would hope game engine systems would follow Open-Close principle and not require modifying the actual engine much (eg. not forward compatible with updates without large merges).

The open-closed principle does not matter much when the release is in 1 month, your game is running at 60% of the target FPS and you know that it won't be updated after release because it already got bad reviews

Perhaps too high expectation if bad reviews?
