People do not want change, especially fans of any IP that previously was doing fine. If that last line above was true, half a dozen different games in existence would never exist because what people always say they want is either something they think they should want, or something incredibly familar. Someone else didn’t want it, so you shouldn’t enjoy it. It doesn’t matter what you say, how you say it, you are wrong, you do not count in the grand scheme of things, and how dare you have fun with something. I even found this happening again when I reviewed the Tomb Raider reboot. They will focus on the negatives, they will not try to play it as it was meant to be, and they will never enjoy it. What’s worse is that those who are critical of what multiplayer modes we enjoy will hold it against us and go into the experience expecting something bad.

Your enjoyment is invalid because it is not acceptable. It’s like saying you enjoyed Battlefield 4‘s single player campaign, your opinion is no longer valid because you differed from what is the agreed upon truth. The only reason I even am is because of just how much hate anyone of us can get if we dare to raise our heads and say we enjoyed a game’s multiplayer. EA and Activision aren’t paying me buckets of money to say this. No really, there isn’t some grand conspiracy here by game publishers.
