Well, it might be seen as bad fanfiction because it messed with the established lore. There were time - turner elements that were used in a way that contradicted the rules set in the earlier books. Also, the plot was rather convoluted and didn't flow as smoothly as the original series, which made it feel like a lower - quality addition to the Harry Potter universe.
One reason could be that it deviated too much from the original tone and style of the Harry Potter series. The characters seemed to act out of character at times. For example, some of the relationships and character developments felt forced, not in line with how they were built up in the previous books.
The 'Harry Potter and the Cursed Child' is considered bad fanfiction by some because it doesn't seem to respect the integrity of the original story. The storylines that were introduced, like certain family relationships and the new threats, seemed a bit far - fetched. It didn't have the same magic and charm as the original books. The original books had a certain simplicity and depth that this play seemed to lack. It felt like it was trying too hard to create new drama and in the process, lost the essence of what made the Harry Potter series so beloved in the first place.
