Share of positive reviews by how many hours the reviewer had played when writing the review.

Based on all 994 Steam reviews in every language. Median playtime in a sample of 298 reviews: 13.7h for positive, 6.4h for negative. Almost every game is rated lower in the first 2–3 hours: that window includes refunds and quick first impressions. What matters is how deep the dip is and how fast the game recovers.
