True it can be hard to tell an actual bad review from a flame. Especially if they were to swing both ways sort of speak, point out good and bad, even if the bad never existed. Is it right no, of course not, will affect the game, possibly. Should you have the chance to rebutt, in my opinion yes, where not here, not in the forums, but on an explanation of review, maybe the player misinterpreted something, there could be a thred on a review, contained within that games review page, that way the entire world doesn't get caught in a flame, BUT one could dig deeper. That will serve two purposes.
1) Bad reviews - legit reviews would be easily noticed, and the owner could respond with a fix, compromise or explanation.
2) False reviews- could be rebutted by the owner, and thats where it gets fun, the player would then defend himself, and the war is on, now from there how the owner acts would matter to me far more than the actual review itself. Don't you agree?
So how many are for an explanation thread?
