Not everyone, but plenty of people are.

Don't pretend to be stupid enough to buy into Metacritic user ratings. No one is that stupid, so it just comes off as sad.
I'm sure they will have some lame story when it comes to Xbox about how "it's good now" because of updates to try to justify their earlier hate.
You really have a vendetta against this game. I hope bashing this game is making you as happy as COD and Gears will this fall.
Yeah, a lot of Xbox One owners are super disappointed they can't play with their friends in this game they were never going to buy for this system they don't own.
Most of the people complaining are the people who ignored every preview and expected the multiplayer aspect of WoW and the storytelling of Mass Effect.
I have it, and it is fun. You don't have a console to play it on, so you are regurgitating complaints about it from other people who haven't played it. Not every game needs to be multiplayer to be good. Single player games (like this one) are fun too.
Have fun playing COD on the Xbox for the 10th year in a row. I'll enjoy new, different experiences like this that you feel the need to bash without playing.
Well someone has to counter all the Xbox kiddies who are jealous they can't play the game.

Sean Murray said time and time again that people should not try to do that, because this wasn't that type of game and it wouldn't work out. I hardly see how they "fibbed" on that point. They have been hammering for two years now that you don't play this game with other people.
Honestly, on a game millions of people are buying, did people really expect to all be in the same instance? Ridiculous.
Dark Souls does it:
Wow, this series is so hardcore. Games today are too easy, and the Souls series brings back the challenge of old school gaming. Games should learn from this design.
No Man's Sky does it:
Wahhhhhhhhhh! This game is stupid and boring. Why do I lose my items when I die/save spam? That is poor game design.
I agree with you that it isn't technically an independent game, but it still is seen as "indie" by a lot of people.
I could be wrong, but I really think we are going to look back on the release of NMS as one of the defining moments of this gen. It could be one of those games (like Rocket League before it) that changes many people's perception of "Indies."
It's just really exciting at a time when so much of the AAA space doesn't seem to be doing anything groundbreaking.
Yep, you stated your opinion as fact, and people disagreed with you (since sales numbers definitively show that people prefer PlayStation).
To be fair, isn't every Telltale game a complete mess on every platform?
Or people like you have just been ignoring the numerous videos and previews Hello Games has done over the past three years, and you've just created your own ridiculous expectations based on the basic concept of the game.
Show me the game with 50 handcrafted worlds and then we'll talk. And don't say Mass Effect or Destiny where the space flight is in a cutscene and the planet surfaces are just small areas.
UltraNova is right. You somehow expect Elder Scrolls meets No Man's Sky, but that can't happen until No Man's Sky happens first.
It is okay to just be excited about what is coming out for the console you play. Xbox has lots of cool stuff too-new Slim version, Gears 4, Inside-but that just isn't relevant if you don't play there. ShadowKnight's comment didn't put anything down.
Good. I hope more people wake up to how mediocre these games are, and that Telltale only has success because they have such big IPs. Heavy Rain was a much better game than the Walking Dead Season 1, and it was out well before Walking Dead, but everyone still freaked out about walking Dead and Telltale as if it was some kind of revolution.
