It would have gone largely unnoticed, and this forum needed a little beacon of hope that everyone didnt hate the game. Could you imagine being a dev, and reading the nonsense being spewed around here? You dump 6 years of your life into a game, spending hours on something like the small details on the hilt of a sword and you get to come here and see that people HATE your game because the characters were too predictable.
I've not read any HATE as such but i have read plenty of posts which criticize features & other elements of gameplay, Criticism is a large step away from hatred & people need to use the term when it's appropriate,"Haters" is just a bandwaggoned phrase.
Bethesda, Bioware, Valve, All these big hitters have unrivalled fanbases whose passion for their storytelling goes beyond the simple customer mechanic & this can result in a massive [censored]storm from fans, You take the rough with the smooth if you are a big player & Bethesda do not need any sympathy from anyone, They stand on their own merits.
Just because a developer has spent 6 years crafting a game does not mean they are entitled to be criticism free, life & business does not work that way & it's unhealthy for any business to be treated with such reverence.
