When the game is hugely popular and shilled up the wazoo, I hold it to a much higher standard than some janky mess that a dev team of 5 people put together. A lot of popular games are really really shit. Mass Effect 2 combat is shit, Witchers combat from 1-3 is shit, Dragon age 2-3-4 are shit, Cyberpunk is shit, Skyrim put me to sleep, I put around 60 hours into it and I was forcing myself to finish it. Awful awful normalfag busywork game. Most assassins creed games are shit. Almost all JRPG's that get praised are NPC tier brainlet shit. Like you are not even a gamer at that point just watch fucking anime. "I play for muh story" just fucking kill yourself.
