  That sounds less like review bombing and more like poorly received mechanics and broken promises. Am I missing something here?

    Right? “We made a mediocre game that doesn’t deliver on the promises we made. Pls give good review now”

    That being said, I have not read the Steam reviews, but it could be that they are getting bombed, but the situation described in the article is just people not liking the game for valid reasons

    Ugh, this discussion happens every time this topic comes up. There’s nothing about the phrase “review bombing” that implies the reviews are somehow illegitimate. It just means a large number of reviews in a short time.
