For those who don’t know, the maxim of criticism that game designers/art people use in their responses to criticism is roughly the following:
“If you get a negative reaction on it’s own, that’s evidence that there’s a problem.”
“If customers give any reasons why or solutions to the problem, ignore that criticism.”
Is this generally true of criticism against anything, and if so, why do you think this happens?
