I'm afraid that it's you who doesn't see the whole picture, I find OPs post and your post a bit naive.
Which you can easily translate into not being very observant.
That pretty much sums it up more than any long winded explanation I can give.
But lets keep it on that the gaming industry is a very different beast in general.

I understand they totally screwed up on their launch, I don't think that'll ever go away really.. However, I don't know about you but i've seen that general gaming communities have completely turned from being suggestive and helpful in changes with info, data and community agreements to now.. " This game sucks because so and so " " This game will fail because Square doesn't listen " " This game will be free because I don't like it " " I can't get what I want because this is hard! This is stupid and breaking the game! " After you see it constantly in games, you sometimes just sorta glaze your eyes over because it's always the same, no sources to back it up, same negative attitude, no suggestions...

There are so many useless and pointless negative pressure that actually isn't even needed because they can't back their reasoning or it's simply because of personal opinion that doesn't actually affect many of the player base. Now if we had negative feed back that actually was well prosecuted and the community actually agreed with it, that would be a whole other story! But sadly I see a lot of this in many anew MMOs and games where people just spew out words that they think doesn't have any meaning to, but generally affects the player base as a whole for their negative verbal diarrhea.
