I don’t understand. These reviews seem accurate to people who have yet to buy the game, so the score properly reflecting the current state of the game warning potential buyers to not buy it.
Reviews would be useless if they didn’t change and people buying the game because reviews reflecting game is fine.
This is the exact reason why Steam had a separate “recent reviews” statistic. A well-reviewed game with negative recent reviews is a good indicator that something broke (three exact reason should be spelled out in the reviews).
The only issue is that such reviews are not “self-cleaning” once the issue gets fixed, and not every negative reviewer will remove or correct their review manually.
It would be true if gamers wouldn’t be OBSESSED with bashing Ubisoft for any fucking reason they can find.
A Ubisoft guy says something about people not owning their games, it gets taken out of context and people are basically sending death threat to their office. Steam publish an update to make it clear you never owned your games, people jerk them harder.
In the end, both are filthy capitalist business, but one has 12k employees and get shit on all the time because black samurai in a fantasy world or women not fuckable enough, the other has around 80 employees, take 30% on every games they did nothing for, and every gamers kisses their asses.
This is just another reason for low life gamers to hate on ubisoft, the fact that windows broke compatibility with the game makes it even more stupid. How the fuck could they have prevent this from happening exactly? They will publish a patch within 24 hours but the bad reviews will stick.
Reviews are more relevant to customers who are buying the game than people who own the game.
It’s no different than people putting in a bad review because a product they got broke on them.
When it comes to digital PC games on changing hardware and OS what the game was at launch is not the same years later. Who’s ever fault it is for the game being in a broken state doesn’t change it is broken, so reviews being updated to reflect the change is helpful for people actually buying games.
There’s been issues raised for a while. Fixes don’t always happen that quickly if ever.
24 hour fix was mentioned by you, but review bombs happening after issues having popped up all the way back in October in the article is indicative of current owners being fed up and now resorting to public pressure for fixes while also serving as a disclaimer to potential buyers who don’t keep up with gaming news.

Jesus, you’re an unpleasant person.
Also, Valve isn’t relevant towards this conversation. They’re not the ones that made Ubisoft into a dumpster fire.
