    then please explain why Counter Strike Global Offensive, Team Fortress 2, Dota 2, etc. don’t deserve to have the same rating

      As far as I’m concerned they do. But my opinion doesn’t decide the rating of a game any more than yours that’s it’s supposedly a better game than bad rats.

      It’s a product of everyone who votes giving their opinion, and the entire steam userbase has come to the consensus that Overwatch 2 is a particularly egregious example of it.

      It cannot possibly be a review bomb when the reviews are legitimate opinions based on what the game is.

        supposedly a better game than bad rats

        the previously referenced games all sit above 80% positive and yet have the exact same problems that you cite as OW2’s reason for being bad

        legitimate opinions

        “the zeitgeist has told them that the game is bad” is not a legitimate reason for not liking OW2, hence accusations of review bombing

        if you think there are legitimate reasons OW2 deserves the rating it has, by all means please provide them, but so far all you’ve given me are #badthings that also apply to basically all the popular F2P games on Steam.

          Because it’s a F2P game that is monetized as such and exists only to make the game I bought obsolete.

          I bought a game.

          The game I have now is not the game I bought.

            correct: it’s a different game

            reviewing it because it’s not Overwatch 1 is by definition review bombing

              it’s the game they gave me to replace the game i purchased.

              if i bought a toyota camry, and 2 years later toyota said “sorry we can’t let you continue using your camry, here’s a corolla” you better fucking believe i’d be trashing toyota in every public space possible to warn potential customers.

                  It absolutely is if I bought a Camry and got a Corolla.

                    in your analogy you bought a camry and mr toyota said “we’re getting rid of this camry but don’t worry i fought to get you a free corolla” and were fine with it and hailed mr toyota as a hero but then mr toyota left the company so the free corolla became poisonous and bad

          Those games are not nearly as aggressive in their attempts to get you to buy shit. CSGO? a tiny ass fucking button to buy Prime. TF2? Don’t even remember seeing a shop button.

          OW2? Makes the worst, money hungry mobile free-to-play blush with how aggressive it tries to sell you shit.

          And they killed OW1, just for this.

            tf2 drops crates every 30 minutes that’s literally just an advert for the in-game store (which has a dedicated button pretty clearly labelled on the main menu)

            pretty sure CSGO does the same

              CSGO does not do the same. I play that one regularly.

                  If it does, I’ve literally never seen it, and I play regularly. The closest I ever got was the Halo MCC soundtrack in CSGO, and I’m pretty sure I only got that because I also have MCC on Steam.

                    my guy csgo crates were controversial enough a few years ago that people sued valve over them, and at no point did csgo come anywhere close to being the worst reviewed game on steam

                    how are you unironically out here saying that csgo doesn’t drop crates?
