> I have no doubt the backlash against him will only get worse as people actually play the game

I’m reminded of a jingle I heard years ago..

It’s ok to not like things, but don’t be a dick about the things you don’t like.

The best thing a person can do is not be naive. Two good recent examples are the sonic the hedgehog movie where the director and sega was basically bullied to fix their 3d models and the top gun sequel. The Top Gun sequel is fascinating as Tom Cruise put a lot of work capturing the spirit and look of the first movie even 30 years later and its a huge billion dollar hit. If Top Gun 2 suddenly changed visual styles or tone, im sure people would have been upset.

It's OK to not like the work somebody produces.

It's not OK to be a dick about it and harass them.

The author owes you nothing.

I’m really trying to set this to a few bars of music in my head to make this a “jingle” but it’s such a long sentence for a jingle it just seems so weird. I would love to see/listen to the original you heard.

It’s a great piece of advice to live by though.

Do you know the Sleep Country USA jingle?

Why be a dick about things you don’t like? ding!
