You're leaving a negative review for an Early Access game which is still under development and not finished. You have no idea how the final product will turn out.
Wouldn’t this part also apply to positive reviews?
If one side can make assertions then so can the other side.
There are no sides to this. How do you figure there is? Some people are going to like the way the game is being developed and some people aren't. The point here is that the game is still under development. The OP is urging people to write negative Steam reviews. He has a negative opinion of the game. The implication is that he wants others who share his opinion to write negative reviews in an attempt to review bomb this game even before it's final release. That's kind of pointless considering the game is still under development and subject to change many times before it goes gold. You don't raise concerns by posting negative reviews. You send those concerns to the development team. This comes off as an individual or group throwing a temper tantrum because the game isn't being made exactly to their standards.
Like I said there are no sides to this. Early Access reviews are pretty much pointless. That's why Steam marks them as EA reviews. The only reason I want to leave a positive review is as a counterpoint to people like the OP who is really trying to trash the game. Reminds me of a little kid throwing a tantrum because they didn't get their way.
I have no beef in this argument and I’m just referring to posting reviews. Of course there’s sides. One side likes where the game is going the other does not. If you can post good reviews for EA then others should be able to post negative ones.
I’m not sure why this idea is confusing.
Nothing confusing about it. I personally don't think EA reviews are helpful either way. Do you know what? That's not what the OP wanted to happen. Nothing stops him from posting a positive or negative review on Steam. Nothing stops me. But I'm not the one on these forums full of negativity towards the game. I'm not the one who started a thread urging people to post reviews on Steam with the implication that those reviews be negative and agree with the OP's opinion of the game. Think about it. Why would the OP urge people to post positive reviews that he would most certainly disagree with? He wanted negative reviews posted simply because something isn't to his liking or didn't go his way. Acting like a spoiled brat when the easy solution is not to post negative reviews but to simply request a refund and be done with the game. My guess would be that even if the OP got his refund he would still be on these forums trashing the game.
