I'm getting sick of the drama more than anything else. I mean, to a degree the media criticizing the game according to previews the devs set up is entirely legitimate, it's their job. But then you have the trolls come in and start making trouble, and then the defenders feed the trolls, which of course makes it worse, and now it's approaching absurd "for us or against us levels" where reasonable "how about we keep our expectations (negative and positive) in check until it's out?" opinions completely unacceptable to both sides.

And it's going to be an absolute circus when the review embargo lifts. Defenders are going to fly off the handle at negative review scores and say that the reviewers are just too embarrassed to admit they were wrong and are docking the game for no reason, and he trolls and haters will lose it over every good score and say the usual things about reviewer credibility.
