Meh, the same is true for almost every discussion on the internet, everyone is an expert armchair for whatever subject you come across, and when you ask them about their experience it boils down to "I read lots of Wikipedia articles".

I mean I agree with you, that it is trendy and seemingly easy, to shit on other people's work, and at this point it seems to be a challenge people take up upon themselves, to criticise something in the most flowery and graphic way as possible, hoping to score those sweet internet points.

Since maybe 6-7 years I stopped reading reviews and opinions about newly launched games completely, the internet audience (and reviewers) are just so far off base compared to my own perspective and experience that it have become less than useless, it's just noise at this point.

I wish many people's "expertise" atleast amounted to reading wikipedia. It seems for many that is too much and they either make crap up on the spot or latch onto whatever the first thing they find that will confirm their biases regardless of how true it is.
