Constructive criticism is fine & I see plenty of well thought out arguments n the forums - no body really minds that - it’s the vitriol & nonsense arguments & statements that are just trying to pull something down which isn’t helping anyone.
In theory, I would agree with this, but then who gets to define what is "constructive" and what isn't? What I see on this forum far too often is that any and all criticism of the game is labeled "unjustified" or "unfair" or "vitriolic" and the critics are then viciously attacked and mocked for daring to criticize what "everyone" knows is "the greatest game ever made."
That sounds hyperbolic. My experience of this forum is quite the opposite, there are a lot of constructed criticism from both sides of discussed topics and everyone is way more civil than any video game forums period. Your description fits Steam forums perfectly though.
