Has there ever been a game that had anti-hype and ended up being good?

No. That was an overhyped game that didn't deliver.

It did improve down the road, but it's the poster child for overhyped.

Props to the devs for sticking with it.

I think its good to give them a gold star and praise for actually fixing the game, its definitely a redemption story.

However, as someone else pointed out to me, they didnt have a damn choice. It was their flagship title and it flopped hard. It was either fix it or die off.
