Rick and Morty is infamous for long breaks between seasons, so some fans were simply glad that the show is back in a timely fashion. The re-casting could easily have caused a longer delay.
prevnext'End It'
I think it would've been better to just end the show. There's no way this version of Rick & Morty is going to make it to 10 seasons lol

Some fans said that it would have been better to end the show than to continue without Roiland. The series has already been renewed through Season 10.

Some fans noted that Justin Roiland is still listed as an executive producer in the credits of this episode, but that is likely because of all the work that was already done on Season 7 before he was fired.
prevnextRange
The new voice actors for Rick & Morty are doing OK in terms of imitating tone.
But we’re yet to see whether they can recreate and convince us of their emotional highs & lows. Crazy evil Rick & Rage Driven Morty shall be the true tests!
Also- awful episode btw, such weak writing

Some fans withheld judgement on the voices so far, saying they needed to hear a wider range of emotion to decide if they were bothered.
prevnextWouldn't Have Noticed
You’re all butthurt liars. If I hadn’t known Rick & Morty changed voices ahead of time I wouldn’t have noticed.
It was just a weak episode. They happen.

Some fans said that the new actors were so convincing, they might not have noticed the re-casting if they hadn't read about it online.

Finally, for some fans, only one review of the new episode matters – the response from Hugh Jackman. Jackman actually voiced himself in this episode, so there is clearly no bad blood here. Rick and Morty Season 7 continues this Sunday at 11 p.m. ET on Adult Swim.
