BG3 was a complete, enjoyable experience all the way through at launch. There were a lot of patches, but those weren't as necessary as other games, like Cyberpunk 2077 and Fallout: New Vegas. For example, character customization is nice to have, but lots of games don't bother.

Starfield on the other hand, was relatively bug free at launch, but it didn't have a good gameplay loop. Outposts were repetitive, gunplay and weapon variety wasn't particularly interesting, and cities weren't very plentiful or interesting (Morrowind was way better in all three, and the game is ~20 years old).

Yeah, BG3 wasn't as solid as launches before OTA updates were a thing, just it felt a lot more like that era than most of the AAA game launches in recent memory.
