Strange reviews.
I noticed all of the bad reviews are all copy/paste Reddit tier comments that have nothing to do with the game. They say they're admitting their sexuality, say they're going to eat mayonnaise and begging for likes...

Who am I to trust in this scenario, and who is commanding these drones to leave such bizarre reviews?

Aw man, and here I was hoping that surely you guys were bots. I guess the people telling me to kill myself and that I am a horrible human being are real after all. Shame.

I notice all the good reviews are just joke. People talking about eating tablespoons of ketchup for likes or telling goofy stories for awards.

Maybe this is all it is, just weird people with nothing to say trying to farm Steam points through recycled copy pasted humor? Seems weird though. Anyone actually tried this game yet? I'm currently waiting for the 50GB download to finish. Figured I'd ping the ether and see how everyone's experience has been since none of the reviews are by real human beings.

"worst game ever ! no depth ! bad gameplay ! NO progression ! WORST GAME EVER !! "

Hrs played - 0.1hrs = 6 minutes
2-3 of which was loading the game up , Menu screen/intro/char creation and settings in the menu.

They have to be paid by other devs surely?

The game is fun but some people don't like the end game....which may not be much of anything. I play casually and never care for end game so the game is fine for me. I am just stating my feelings about the beta test though.
I am installing the game now to see how the live version is.

tl;dr version: It's basically bad timing, along with the frustration of the thumbs down flooding from people who haven't even begun to play.

Details:

It could very well be that your review is thoughtful and has good points (I haven't read it), but coming at a point where the game just launched and people are seeing a whole bunch of trolls flooding negative reviews without legitimate complaints, just because the game is free and they can do that, that people who support the game are looking for a way to express their frustration.

So many people are angered by the negative review flooding for a game 99% of the reviewers barely turned on, that if you've already made a negative review this early after launch and you're one of the people that has allowed comments from strangers, they're going to take out their frustration on you.

If you did say you were a beta player during the review, it's still hard for people to buy someone was a beta player just because they claim so. Everyone is used to false claims online, and so they're going by the play time the Steam review shows (I'm in no way claiming you're not a beta tester, from reading another post of yours, I assume you are telling the truth).

I would turn off the ability for strangers to leave commends on your profile for now, and either turn off comments on the review or just don't read them at this point.
Never turn off comments on reviews. That is very annoying. We gamers who read the reviews can't ask questions when the comments are off.
Don't worry about what other people write if it is stupid. Be strong. Not weak.

I'm not worried about a thing, I make my own mind up about games I play. I just was curious about these weird reviews, and to see if there were any real human beings who've played this to see what the general vibe was. It's simple curiosity, not worry or concern.
The author of this thread has indicated that this post answers the original topic.

This is actually good advice, if a game is bad, it should earn it's bad reputation. People leaving meme reviews for no reason, just to farm points and awards is morally wrong.

Since there's an addition couple of GB to download after the 50GB initial download, I have a few moments to report the redditors who are leaving irrelevant reviews.

Honestly, steam point have ruined what little usable content there was on the community sections. Now it's all just clowning for awards.

I played it when it was in beta like a month ago. It's a pretty fun 3rd person shooter game but nothing special. I was hoping for controller support on release but there isn't so idk if I'll keep playing it.

Also to the rest of the thread, both negative and positive reviews that are making jokes are cringe people. just focus on the ones that say something useful and stop taking up forum space complaining about it to cope.

One of the worst decisions ever been taken by Gabe. Some just farm useless rewards & points just to brag with them while spamming & posting irrelevant threads on the forums, and not only.
