2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

It was astoundingly buggy, didn't work at all on multiple platforms that they released it to, was over hyped (part their fault, part community fault), the game felt "flat" and lifeless due to it missing a lot of the small details and better 'AI' of the GTA series.

It just wasn't the game they promised at all. And the fact that they kept delaying it then saying "we want to make sure it's ship-shape" gave people the impression that the game would be polished upon release, and it wasn't even close to polished.

It's improved leaps and bounds since then, though. When I first bought it I ended up refunding it, but recently I bought it again and it's so much better.

That's subjective, but fair. I did not experience the bugs and the hype I gave the game it lived up to.
