Plenty of people leave negative reviews for games they otherwise play. Especially where big changes are put into effect

That's the exact recipe for ensuring that they don't change it back.

That's depends on the business model. For one-off payment games, it still does considerable damage, whereas they don't gain much by you continuing to play.

For subscription games, your point stands much stronger.

It's a free to play multiplayer game. If you continue playing it, you're providing value for some other player who might spend money, so just by being in the matchmaking pool, they've got you where they want you, and they won't care about your review.
