I'd say that most of us work hard to keep the atmosphere here positive, friendly, open and constructive, even when a large percentage of us post in mostly critical ways. The serious threads - and they are many, are for the sot part based on hones,t open assessment, and not emotional bitterness at all, though there are plenty of cases where strong personal opinions conflict, obviously. Writing them off as just bitter haters is not helpful or constructive though. Anyone saying that this game is currently a smash hit 10/10 is engaging in obvious hyperbole, and that is (or it should be) understood. No-one, not even the most ardent fans of the game and of Larian as a company, actually believes at an honest level that it is perfect and flawless, because it tangibly is not.
Praising the good in a game is very helpful feedback - but unequivocal praise and lauding in the face of the tangible reality is not, and is more likely to be harmful to the project overall. Remember that the folks here who are the most critical are people who genuinely love, or want to love, this game, and who want it to be not just good, but the best game it can be. If we didn't want that, we wouldn't be here.
