Here's the problem with people complaining that everyone should actually play through games: some of them can't. Gamer skill varies widely, and a lot of gamers reach a sort of invisible wall where they simply do not have the skill to go any farther. Those gamers pay $50 or $60 for a game and only get to play the first part of it.
This is something that folks on gaming forums tend to almost universally forget. They represent perhaps the top five percent of gamers, but their skill level is not indicative of the other 95% who can often lag very, very far behind. They often complain that a game was too easy, and perhaps for the top five percent the game in question might be too easy, but that doesn't speak for the other 95%.
