So what are you hoping to get out of this thread? Just venting? Hoping for people to justify the advances of the game?
Turn hair off if you don't like it, turn off sound if you think people might abuse it (be thankful it's not voice chat) and change the resolution if it bothers you.
If you don't like the direction of the game feel free to make suggestions in the suggestion board.

It's never going to be possible to satisfy everyone but we get as close as we can.
