It has scripted missions. I don't like scripted missions. Therefore I won't like this game.

Because you don't own, and haven't purchased a game in the last <time period since you decided you don't like anything scripted> that has scripted content. Uh huh.

lol...little more than self-gratification and ego wrapped in a weakly intellectualized justification.
Why don't you go make the game that no developer has the will, ability, intelligence, what have you, to make. Write out your design spec, pitch it, fund it, hire for it, create it. Not that you would actually ever do that, but I do wish you could experience some punk*ss climbing on his soapbox proclaiming that your game sux because you didn't do <insert your pet issue here>.
The point is this: if you discourage people from purchasing a game in this very small and relatively unproductive gaming niche, you become a large part of the reason there aren't more games created for it. If it sells well but has enough communication from the community, you not only may see another game from them, but you will see changes. Witness the changes from Silent Hunter 2 - Silent Hunter 3: all community driven. But trust me, not from the whiners and complainers, but from the communicators.
I'll stop here in case I'm guilty of "trying to teach a pig to read".
