That's pretty much it. Almost everything about the mod is contrary to his preferred playstyle. Which is fine, but I take issue with him claiming that just because he doesn't like a design choice, that means it's "bad".
Indeed.
Unfortunately, he's deemed an opinion leader, and some people might even base their decision of whether or not they try out the mod on what he says. Thus it isn't something we can simply ignore. Plus I just dislike people bad-mouthing the mod when their criticisms aren't even accurate. Dislike all you want, just do it from a position of knowledge.
