What a terrible way to start a review, by dismissing the opinions of those that didn't enjoy the game. A lot of the flak makes perfect sense if you're just willing to acept that people can and do have different opinions.
Just for the record, I'm glad you enjoyed the game, and I did too, almost through the entire game, but there is certainly room for a lot of valid critique, which is evidently somewhat divisive. I agree about a lot of the critique the game has got, but it didn't hurt my experience too badly for dozens of hours - but I have little trouble seeing how it could ruin the entire game for a lot of people. I saw the people initially receive the game well on Steam, only for the reception to turn quite sour after the people got to spend more time with the game. Personally I couldn't recommend the game in good conscience to anyone without knowing their taste really well, because the game has a fairly high chance of disappointing unless you know what you're getting into. For a game I got for "free" with my new CPU, I'm quite happy, but I'm also really happy I didn't have to (explicitly) pay for it (not that I would have, because I knew long in advance that the setting simply doesn't interest me that much, but I digress).
