Chart displaying Initial Drift Online percentiles of time played for positive, negative, and early access reviews.

This chart displays the time players have spent in Initial Drift Online, showing a comparison between positive and negative reviews. You can also see the reviews during the Early Access phase. The time in game is not bad at all, with 18 hours in the 80th percentile.

The negative reviews play time is 13 times lower than the positive reviews median play time. When the negative review time is low (median : 31 minutes), it can be a sign that the game crashes on some systems or that players misunderstood the nature of the game (Does the Steam page clearly explain it, with gifs and a gameplay video ?). It can also mean that some players were somehow offended by Initial Drift Online and decided to review it and get a refund under 2 hours. You could check if there is an explanation in the Players' feedback section.
