What are some popular criticisms you see about any show/movie/videogame that you strongly disagree or you just don’t think it’s really a bad thing? (lemmy.zip)

Example; the Legend of Zelda: BotW and TotK weapon degradation system. At first I was annoyed at it, but once I stopped caring about my “favorite weapon” I really started to enjoy the system. I think it lends really well to the sandbox nature of the game and it itches that resourcefulness nature inside me.

Whenever certain keys words are thrown around to criticize something, you bet it’s actually not as bad as everyone is making it out to be. I went through the entirety of The Last Us Part II and she-hulk just because of the hate, and boy was the hate overblown.

Felt the same about Ms Marvel, you'd think it was some crime against humanity. There were a couple cheesy moments (and I love cheese) for sure but I enjoyed it.

Both She-Hulk and Ms Marvel had flaws as TV shows. On account of being TV shows. The over focus on those flaws was driven by people who wanted to hate them for not being about white American men.
