Agree on avoiding the forums.
Most of the complainers are going to find something to ***** about regardless of how good the game is. Nothing will ever be good enough, and there will always be something wrong...feel sorry those people that can't just enjoy the game for what it is.
Sure some things can be done better, or fixed, or whatever...but I ain't gonna lose any sleep over it and get all irritated. I play games to have fun, if I'm not having fun and find myself ************ and complaining, I stop playing.
