I think it's fair to say, while Hello has been around these parts for over a decade, rating a game based off "well you should've improved, now you are just trolling" attitude is going about it all wrong. (I know I'm paraphrasing but that's the gist I've got) It's like saying to anyone who has been doing any type of skill, and telling them at any moment, "Why are you not good yet?" or "You aren't doing a good job, you must be joking."
I'm starting to get convinced that most people commenting like this didn't actually play the game themselves.
It's just an absurd game all around, there is an entire world that's dedicated to mocking the anime culture (either that or he's trying to be hip but lacks self awareness), which is why we think Hello has at least some amount of self awareness but doesn't care.

Then just review it and give it a 6/10

I said this multiple times already but it's all opinions, you don't have to agree with them. You can just post yours there too if you disagree with the common opinion and think the game deserves better.
And I feel like this is what this thread overall comes down to. People either see the reviews and just assume that people must be biased based on the negativity surrounding the game, or play the game, think it's not that bad, and come to the same conclusion. The whole "submitting negative reviews as a joke" thing certainly didn't help either, and I will fully admit that this was our fault and overall was not a good idea. I still don't see reviewing a game 0/10 instead of 1/10 and criticizing it as harassment though.
There were people in the comments section of the game who were straight up being mean to Hello and mocking him, that's true, but we've already dealt with those and told people specifically not to do that.
Either way, I think it's important to realize that while there's a context to why people are being quite harsh towards the game, this context isn't what makes the game bad. It's kind of the opposite, the fact that this game is bad is why people are being harsh with their criticism. You don't have to agree with this notion, but it is what it is. And speaking of that, it's also important to have the ability to comprehend that people might have different opinions on a game than you. Just accept that and move on, or just share yours. (Not specifically talking about anyone in particular here btw)
