TotK really makes Switch feel dated

More than anything, this whole discourse reminds me that gaming culture has become too negative.

Here we have a game that's blowing away people who've worked in the industry for decades with its craftmanship, complexity, and stability, and some folks are getting hung up on whether enemies still patrol when you're on the other side of the map or how Link's hair is rendered. Let's be honest, are things like this really worth getting worked up about? Or are we just sabotaging our own enjoyment? 

I feel like enthusiast gamers as a community have become so conditioned to find fault with everything, to obsess over the tiniest imperfection, that we're forgetting how to just relax and enjoy games instead of picking them apart.

I agree with some of this. But, how can one discuss anything without saying negative stuff?  There certainly is some negative stuff mentioned in this thread, but there's also tons of positive. Isn't that how any discussion of anything is going to work? 

And who is getting "worked up" here?  Simply pointing out something that one doesn't like, or that one thinks could be better, doesn't mean that they are raging pissed or anything.  Everyone in this thread seems to be playing the game, otherwise they wouldn't really be able to participate here. So how negative is that really?
