The game is currently being review bombed. Valve will soon do a big cleaning: https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/valve-to-remove-off-topic-review-bombs-from-steam-user-scores
But it's blizzard who bombed their own game...
9% of 75K reviews are positive. I'm very curious how many will be removed. Also does Blizzard have a review system for their games? Curious how these reviews could be considered "off topic" if there's no first-party system to compare them to.
The reviews don't get removed, they're just hidden by default. And it's considered off topic if the content of the reviews is about something that a team at Valve determines to be unlikely to help a new player decide if they want to play the game.
