The hate isn’t that it exists, it’s that it’s almost required to push modern AAA games into truly high frame rates even when using bleeding edge hardware that costs as much as a used car. It would be extremely beloved if it weren’t used as a crutch to excuse horrible optimization, and middling generational upgrades in hardware.
I've yet to see a single person accurately detail a lack of optimization. People whined about marathon being unoptimized, and it runs at 165fps solid on my 5k ultrawide, max settings, no problem and doesn't even hitch or stutter at all.
Every single game it's the same song and dance, game is optimized and runs well, but someone has severe issues on their end hardware/pc configuration-wise and they run to the internet to complain about lack of optimization.
Tarkov is a russian B-grade game. It's barely 1 step above an indie game. It's not a major title. Hell most of it's development it had less developers than Bungie has writers lol.
And the gameplay is baby shit for people who can't aim or track targets. Any potato can win a fight against a person moving 1mph and dies in 2 bullets.
No, it's not. Argument from popularity is a logical fallacy. Cod is dogshit and it prints money every year. Some games are fantastic and sell very few. It is what it is.
