User Critiques Claude Opus 5 for Overly Long, Judgmental Replies
petergyang · x · 2026-08-02
A user recently shared feedback that compared to Opus 4.6, the newer Opus 5 model feels degraded in its conversational experience.
The user noted that Opus 5 tends to generate overly long responses, overuses specific "Claude-speak" phrases (e.g., "here's the honest truth"), and comes across as too judgmental, losing the joyful, trusted-friend vibe of its predecessor.
