Attepts to undervalue developer's work by usung personal or "ad hoc" attack are an execrable habit, I agree - as are the same thing of attempts to undervalue critics.
But no game is perfect, and to criticize is a fundamental right of the buyer - exp. when supported by open facts, videos and description of problems that anyone with a copy of the game can reproduce.
To me this is both giving correct info to a potential buyer (who wonders if the $80 price plus shipping is a correct measure of the game's potential) and a lead to developers about how to better their product. In my book, this simple but to-the-point behaviour will always beat "Beano Almanac" posts spilling both scattershot of images and mutual fanboism.
Just my 2 cents.
