This chart displays the time played in Salthe depending if the reviewer left a positive or a negative review. The time played is decent, reaching 11 hours in the 80th percentile.

The median play time for the negative reviews is similar to the median for positive reviews, hinting that there is no significant difference in the player's experience and that is more a question of personal taste.

The Players' feedback section might help understanding the issue.
