Reminds me of that whole situation that happened with the streamer Scottzone. He was welcomed with open arms when he first started playing the game and had a lot of praise for it, then got turned on when he gave criticism of the first tier of Eden raids. Like a complete 180 of people harassing him and sending death threats. Just sad.
