Sometimes games ship updates that mess with the game. I have over 20,000 hours in WoW. But my play habits from over almost 2 decades ago don't reflect the current quality of the game.

And some people compulsively play games they don't enjoy because "once I get to the next thing, it will finally be fun!" And maybe this person had an awakening and realized that they will never get there... Or after this amount of time had a drastic change of heart.

And some people leave games open when they aren't playing.

I'm not saying this is normal or necessarily healthy, but it's not unfeasible.

right, but if you do that I think it's on you to explain why you have that many hours and yet are still leaving a negative review. This comic is specifically parodying the people who don't provide that context and thus leave it open to interpretation

9.85 years, if you were also wondering.

It's one thing to write a funny review instead of being serious, but... The thumbs up or thumbs down is for people who don't wanna read your review, they just wanna take a glance at what most people think.

Imagine a game where every review is a joke giving a thumbs down. Everyone who hasn't played it will think it sucks.

"I bet that new DLC I pre-ordered months ago sucks too."

I've done that a few times. I decided to absorb the punishment doled out by the game's badness and have what fun I could, but it was always at a stupidly high cost and the stuff that sucked, I didn't see coming going in.

Except with a more normal but still big number.

Are you sure it's not Cementarii, the Steam username in the frame?
