I’m not against the idea of user reviews. When they’re used for their intended purpose, they can be beneficial, helping highlight specific issues in games that might not be made clear in more general critical reviews, or brining a spotlight to games that haven’t attracted much media coverage. They’re good for gauging general user sentiment, which is useful in these “live service” days where games often change after they’ve been released. In an ideal world, they’re a useful consumer tool.
