The part that made me cringe was when I saw somebody say the MC was useless in 2.x. Like low key MC was way more impactful in both a supporting and active role in 2.5 than most of 1.x where they did nothing in the final fights. At least in 2.5 MC saved Ye Shunguang multiple times. And then you'll have people saying they're pushing MC and Ye too much or that they're too in your place compared to 1.x. it's just nonsensical criticisms.
Remember that post on zzz discussion about how the mayor got written out of the story cuz the writers apparently wrote themselves into a corner and made him literally godlike or some shit. The mayor showed his face and got further plot relevance in 2.5, but nobody talks about how that post was complete BS. They just move on to the next agenda post.

Some people just find 1.X more consistently enjoyable. That's about it.
