Chart displaying OUTBUDDIES DX percentiles of time played for positive, negative, and early access reviews.

This chart displays the time players have spent in OUTBUDDIES DX, showing a comparison between positive and negative reviews. The time played is adequate, reaching 22 hours in the 80th percentile.

The negative reviews play time is 6.8 times lower than the positive reviews median play time. A low negative review time (median : 142 minutes) can mean that the game crashes on some systems or that the type of gameplay was not completely clear to the players (Is the game unmistakably explained on the Steam Store ?). It is also possible that players were otherwise displeased by OUTBUDDIES DX and decided to review it and get a refund under 2 hours. The Players' feedback section might give some insight about that.
