Haters are gonna hate
I saw the bogus threads on day #1 from people saying the game sucked - even though they hadn't registered the game (probably pirated if that but I doubt this game was available on torrent when those posts were made) and likely haven't played it nor have yet to register the game.
Most of the trolls I think could be linked to the With Fire and Sword Mod for Warband - apparently - they feel hurt that someone else 'stole' Henryk Sienkiewicz's idea (Sienkiewicz; by that measure, has probably rolled in the grave at least a hundred times if people's sense of originality is any measure).
I've played the with Fire and Sword Mod at a friend's house and it isn't as good as they claimed it to be... there's no single player and no mod in the world (short of a realism gameplay modification) can change the clumsy-anarchial multiplayer mechanics... and I don't care if there are usable artillery pieces or not!
Then there are other trolls who are butt hurt that Warband II "isn't being made" and somehow that "Fire and Sword" took pirority over its' development.
