Frankly i don't mind if you don't mind and you enjoy yourself with GT, just don't label all the criticism of people as 'hating' as they have valid points.
Valid points get completely ground underfoot when people criticize by making harsh, overdone statements. "The cars sound like vacuum cleaners/pencil sharpeners/weed eaters/ripped nylons/mad gerbils/etc."
People mention tipping points, and there's another one where a certain crowd can't say anything good about the game. Can't seem to hold back when someone wants to make a post about something they enjoy about GT6, and tries to inform the universe how wrong headed the previous post was.
Or they're so outraged over the game that they proclaim that they're done with the series, have moved on to other racers because they're done with the series, and hang around routinely reminding everyone that they're done with the series. But will post occasionally things they'd like to see improved, even though they're so done with the series.
This is what's so discouraging to us, that we see a game which is imperfect and want it to be improved, and celebrate what's good about it. Some of you say you want it improved too, but it's hard to tell when some of your remarks almost sound hateful, and some posts are rather derogatory. When supposedly we both want the same thing. Sometimes, it doesn't show.
The game is rotten. The sounds are crap. The bots suck. The physics are wrong. The Standards are ugly. Offline is rubbish. Online is garbage. Every other racer is better. How can anyone with any sense like this?
Is this out of line? Well, let me ask you guys this. How many posts in the sound threads have read like this?
"Some of the cars have pretty bad samples, but some of them do sound rather good." "Some of the cars just need a little more grunt, and they'd be dandy."
And how many sound like this?
"The cars all sound like vacuum cleaners." "They sound so bad it hurts my ears." "I can't play it because the sounds are so terrible."
How many posts resemble these examples? Which one more? And which one sounds like someone encouraging PD to work on improvements? How many of you tell your wives and girlfriends that their cooking is pretty bad, and expect them to know that you have their best interests at heart?
