TV mode was a scapegoat for the game's actual problem, which was being way too fucking overtutorialized.
Most people quit without ever experiencing how the game actually plays because the game itself doesn't let you start playing. IIRC you can't even equip drive discs until you get to like chapter 3 or some shit. So most people shitting on the game are really just shitting on the handholding but they're too stupid to realize it.
And TV mode had the same problem.
