It's like telling someone with depression to cheer/toughen up because "it's not that bad" or "other ppl have it worse".

But for the ppl who are attached to their character (which is clearly a lot of ppl), it is a big deal (especially when they were under the impression that this wouldn't happen) & having others telling you to get over it, it's not that bad, to stop nitpicking/overreacting, you're just not used to it, etc (like I've seen a lot of ppl doing) just adds to the frustration.
You have to look at this objectively though. A large proportion of people here have sought to be empathetic and supportive, tried to offer advice (changing maps, watching the benchmark before making any hasty judgement, altering graphics settings and Gamma Correction etc.), tried to offer reassurance (the lighting in the CC isn't the best and things may not look so bad once you actually get into the game, hope that SE will make adjustments in the future to fix a few of these issues etc.) but in return, all they are met with is hostility. If you want sympathy and support, don't harass your supporters.
