I mean... where do you think the "this has a terrible launch" comes from?

If Influencers like a game, everyone looks past the massive performance and stability issues. If influencers don't like a game, a single crash is enough to mark it as trash that should be ignored until a couple patches... which is a death sentence for a multiplayer game that requires a critical mass of players to be worth buying.
