Why? It's a new game and involves new rules, new interface, new this and new that. It makes sense that you're going to want to review the manual. It will take adjustment and this was known. I would respectfully suggest that if someone isn't willing to invest the time to learn the game this might not be for them. Still, that's likely premature. His comment simply sounds like frustration that will probably fade with time.
I agree with your other statement that no one should be told to shut up and fawn over a game that they are having trouble with but don't you think the guy was pretty quick to dismiss the game as well? I mean he hasn't read the manual, he hasn't spent much time with it but has decided to make an instant decision that the game is terrible and throw a fit.
I've found the new interface a challenege too but I stuck with it through the evening and it got easier and easier for me. Maybe the message from all of us should be, "chill out, take a breather, come back start up the game AND the manual and try simple things." Patience and persistence are likely to be more fruitful than getting upset. We were all cautioned by the mods and developers that just diving in was going to be an overwhelming experience and there's nothing wrong with taking some time. Last night I created 4 different universes but I doubt any of them will stick around I was just doing it to teach myself concepts of the game.
Please everyone, deep breaths!
