Folks aren't ready to accept it but it's true. I'm loving the game, I really am, and I even recommend it, but it really needs more polish. I guess the bar really is just that low for people. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills seeing everyone saying it's perfect. A game can be great but still need polish.

Agreed, it's a great game to the point that I'm willing to look past the jankiness, but there are some huge gaps right now. For examples, I have Asterion equipped with a finesse longsword and it seems like the sneak attack animation is missing, the game just hangs for 5 seconds and then computes damage every time.
