I don't think the author is saying that there's anything wrong with people loving the game, or that the people that do are wrong. But he does have a couple of good points. Namely, that the game is actually pretty deeply flawed in a number of ways, and that there is a sizable group of people who turn into Piranhas any time someone says anything negative about the game.

This thread is a great example of that second point. He's a hater, he didn't actually play the game, this article is just clickbait, if you don't love the game you're wrong, ect, ect. It's just silly.

Well, I do have to say that after the whole BOTW review debacle, it is easy for me to say that Nintendo fanatics are actually the most fanatical of the fanatics of either console.  I've never seen a fanbase flip their collective shit from someone saying, "Yea, it's still a really good game, but I definitely don't think it is deserving of a 9 or 10 out of 10."  Or because they dared to score it just a good rating, and not near perfect, which brought down the Metacritic score down by a meager 1 point.

Wow you must be new to the internet.  Or did you just forget about the GTAV fiasco where a reviewer DARED to score it a 9 and proceeded to get harrassed, death threats, and a ton of people trying to pressure the site in question to fire said reviewer.

Or the people who bit off Yahtzee's head for not bowing down and worshipping The Last of Us as gaming's greatest magnum opus.

Or the people who roasted half the dang media for their less than stellar reviews for No Man's Sky.

Every franchise with big followings has fanatical wingnuts so get off your high horse.
