"Love it or leave it" is not a mentality anyone actually practices, so I don't know why it's trotted out here. I never see anyone defending any other game for missing standard QOL features or doing something you dislike with "Well that's how the developers made it so shut the fuck up and play something else!"

Maybe we should abolish review scores and the concept of critiquing a video game. Obviously the game wasn't for you if you can't accept it 100% as it was made.

Games are literally an interactive media. To call players "selfish" for having complaints or requests is asinine. Elden Ring isn't an art film. And even the most pretentious art film could have some small objective issues that no movie in current year should have, like it's deafingly loud or they lock you in the theater when the showing starts.

It's like they can't wrap their brain around the idea that people can like a game but also have things they would like to see in said game. Or that expressing those ideas on the internet is not akin to holding the devs at gunpoint and demanding they add it
