    I can say that personally, I do hesitate if I see a game with mixed reviews and will at least check out why people don’t like it. And if steam says a high volume of “irrelevant” (or whatever word they use) reviews are not shown, I’ll click through to see what they are about to decide for myself if they are relevant or just losers whining about “woke” shit.

      Yeah, from a user standpoint, but companies won’t use it as much of a metric as they do sales.

              Yes, but buying the game to leave a negative review is against the point.

              what happens is you get:

              Do not buy! Time at review: 0.9 hours (Total played: 356 hours)

              Which basically tells people its some bullshit protest.
