Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - General RIP the patch every 2 weeks

People tend to be more vocal about things they are unsatisfied about than the ones they are happy about (and when it comes to things they are indifferent about it's not even a contest, really). That's true basically in any context.
And I'd argue there's also plenty of good reasons for it. Screaming your happiness at the top of your lungs is not exactly going to do you any favor, while asking for "problems to be fixed" has a clear self-serving purpose.

About the tone... Well, I'm not the biggest fan of tone policing in general as far as certain lines aren't crossed, but I'd like to point that there's a reason if the overall mood was WAY more cheerful in the first weeks of this EA and some users (myself included) drifted more and more on the surface of dark, never ending sea of bitterness as time went on.
Larian simply didn't live up to its promise to keep in contact with the community and have a two-ways communication with the user base.

For the most part, we started pointing flaws and "asking nicely" if something could be done about them, then we watched with a certain amount of perplexity the studio completely overlooking every point made by the community for the nine successive months.
They never even acknowledged several of the major, recurring points of criticism, let alone bothering arguing in favor of their choices and why they were even made in the first place.
What we got is a bunch of "Oh oh oh, you guys surely love to get laid and pet the dog. Also, eating mushrooms now is a free action and here's some loaded dices".

it's hilarious to me that we have even part of the user base being pesky because "People always complain about the same things".
Yeah, I mean, these "same things" are all still true nine months later, aren't they? And they didn't stop being bad just because at some point discouragement will prevail and we will eventually grow tired of talking about them.
