I'm honestly kind of baffled by this thread and the sheer amount of people treating sells as the end all be all of artistic quality and criticism which as others have said, seems so odd to see in a discussion forum about video games, like what's even the point of ERA then if this is the mentality we're having.
Sells don't mean quality, as the above Sora87 said, it's like a lot of the users complaining and criticising bought the game themselves and have issues with it (which doesn't mean hate as some seem to think, you can love something and still criticise it in the hopes of making it better). Persona 5 sold well, doens't mean the criticise of homophobia and sexism isn't valid or important, Red Dead 2 Sold well, doesn't mean we ignore the poor working conditions at Rockstar or means people who have issues with some features are "Objectively" wrong.
Saying "It sold well" is a lazy argument and I hate to say it but I'm really getting the vibe I see in comment sections below reviews where I see people complain about the reviewers being "subjective" or "wrong" because their score doesn't match others or the "It's sold well" and like, yes it's subjective, all opinions are, that's not a revelation, art is subjective and people can and will debate, discuss and yes criticise art, dismissing that or shutting it up isn't going to change anything.
Like Transformers Revenge of the Fallen was a success at the box-office, does that mean it's immune to criticism? Lilith no. Hell, just because something is financially successful doesn't mean people don't listen to feedback and criticism
