    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.
