I was just thinking about this again after reading the Gematsu comments. Lots of people taking potshots at the series. I really think what it comes down to is a sort of resentment over "not getting it" when seeing people like us who absolutely adore the series.
I've learned long ago that trying to reason with people like this is a waste of time and a strain on my mental health. If they want to be miserable, that's their prerogative. I am only a member here and on Eurogamer and I only try to comment on positive things if I can. It's too easy to be miserable these days, so hard as it can be sometimes, I say fuck them and leave them to stew in their negativity.
I do agree that some might be upset for "not getting it". To that extent, I can sympathise, because it suggests they made the effort to try and that's OK. It's the ones who use Shenmue as an easy target or punching bag that grinds my gears~
