you mean the reviews where people are basically only allowed to get early review copies if they continue to post favorable reviews? and if they dont they wont receive those copies anymore? Yeah the current review system is basically rigged... companies want those clicks so they need to stay on devs "good side" to get those early review copies. Starfield in no way deserves all those 9s and 10s.

There's a reason starfield is under 50% recommended on steams recent reviews.

edit: oh damn, its actually at mixed all time now https://store.steampowered.com/app/1716740/Starfield/

It’s scary how long the real experience was reflected here; everyone was blinded and deusional playing this menu simulator. I was yelled at and violently criticized for claiming this game was a massive disappointment.

I don't think "there's a good reason" based on the recent reviews. The review patterns on the game are a little absurd, really. You're telling me that suddenly after two months a bunch of people finally decided to review the game? Nah. Maybe if there had been a sale that would make sense, but there hasn't been.

Yes, how exactly is that absurd? The game can take a long time to get through and not everyone has 10 hours a day to play games you know that right? Not only that tons of people have games they were already playing and probably finished them first before starting starfield. There are dozens of different scenarios that can easily explain why people didn’t review the game until now, it’s not unheard of in the slightest lol.

The absurdity is concurrency, not timeline. If you look at the review history, there is a day with an excessively large number of negative reviews. That simply doesn't make sense this many days post release.
