People review bombing because of the protagonist
So pathetic.

Just get over it, this hobby is not solely catering to straight white men anymore. Stop living in the past and adjust your expectations.

People who do it for that reason are pathetic

But there are a lot of legit issues with this game

Why is a game in 2024 launching with DLSS 2.3? That’s ancient

I just played this game on GP and I wish I could give it a thumb down on Steam because of the terrible combat gameplay design. Seems like the dev could not make up their mind if they like God of War 2018 or Bloodborne more.

Aren’t these the devs that made Ashen? That game was really good

What happened to them? This is terrible 😣

I support the objections to DEI and SBI injection in games.

Judging by online statistics, such games are not popular. This is encouraging.

I initially read the title as "positive review bombing" eg like the people who rate Star Wars Acolyte as 10/10 XD

Based on the score and the reviews that I scroll through, it does look to show more positives than the score reflects and or a higher score incoming. No one can say it's being negatively review bombed like what's implied. This only means the opposite type of review buffering is occurring which is unfortunate.

>57 reviews total

Are they deleting negative reviews or just nobody bothers to play it?

Down to 54, lol, they absolutely do delete them

We are approaching prime time and only have 650 people playing. This game is a massive bomb.

Just check the peak concurrent players

This is a huge flop

The only pathethic thing is your statement. What review bombing? It has barely 50-something reviews with nearly 80% positive.

The problem is, it flatlines already with less than 700 players.

There is no review bombing - people just don't care. The "modern audience" just yet again simply showed to be non-customers, to surprise of absolutely nobody with more than 2 working brain cells.

And this goes along releasing a souls-lite title less than a month after Shadows of the Erdtree AND just after Steam Summer sale, where people already emptied their wallets.

It is basically a cavalcade of bad decisions.
if it were organic, thats one thing. in 2024 if any character is brown/gay/etc its because the studio got a DEI investment loan from Blackrock or similar. Sweet Baby exists as a consulting firm specifically geared towards maximizing DEI revenue and return for studios. its not rocket science nor is it political to dislike racial pandering. I know this is a concept that requires above an 80 IQ but i'm sure you'll figure it out
