The question is what is the constructive use of your negativity spiral?

In indicating the Square Enix that these demands exist. Because without it they will convince themself they don't have to do anything or even keep it in mind. It's easy to say the story is bad, for example. But to say why and where it's bad takes time. And discussion. A lot of discussion. Including the repetition of these discussions, especially if these are issues that have been voiced for years. The simplest and most obvious example, hats for hrothgars and vieras. How many years have people been asking for this problem to be solved? Everyone knows it's here. But a solution is still not on the horizon. And it is not certain that there will be one. But I would rather constantly and annoyingly remind them of it than hide my head in the sand and pretend that everything is fine.

I don't have to hope for the best in some future. Because I'm paying for the present. And if a game wants me to praise it, it should do its best, rather than having me lower my already relatively low standards.
