"I think that today's gaming community has a tendency to be overly negative toward games. Many gamers would disagree with me- and I admit, the unbelievably high scores assigned to imperfect games on game sites suggest, in fact, that the opposite may be true, at least when it comes to game review websites (the community grabs their pitchforks when a site doesn't like their pet game- but we'll save that conversation for another day). I'm talking about the average, involved video-game fan on Reddit, Destructoid, and other online gaming communities. They are constantly exposed to amazingly fun and innovative games, to the point that an otherwise phenomenal game with a deficiency in any of a number of aspects will be lambasted with overly harsh criticism."
A new Skyrim Switch 2 update delivers major visual upgrades, surpassing some console settings, but locks the game to 30fps and introduces noticeable input lag.
That's ridiculous, lol. I'm waiting for the guy that says its too cpu-intensive for the Switch 2. This game is old af and has been released like 17 times.
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim lead designer Bruce Nesmith explains that the game's bucket stealth was an unintended feature of the game.

"A reasonable person would have said "Oh, well, the scope of the game is enormous, a lot of this was procedurally generated, and it's impossible for them to test every possible collision or AI scenario, but they certainly could have done better"
And those kind of responses annoy me. A games size isn't a valid excuse for bugs. How can size be more important than performance. It isn't overemphasising the negative
Back to the article as a whole I think we do overemphases the negative but being in an entertainment industry pointing out negatives over positives comes hand in hand
That headline describes this entire generation and most gamers in general.
Whatever the problem, If I feel that I didn't get my 60 dollars worth on a game that (in this day and age), is simply impossible to return once opened, then yes you can imagine that I'm going to be extremely negative towards the specific game at hand. ESPECIALLY when the reviews (written by "official sources") are completely mis-leading.
This article is EXACTLY RIGHT.
Trolls, negativity fanboys are running wild and its hard to go on any forum anymore
Fanboys are just a disease that blank out logic and subjectivity.
