Chart displaying X3: Reunion percentiles of time played for positive, negative, and early access reviews.

This chart displays the time played in X3: Reunion depending if the reviewer left a positive or a negative review. The time in game is outstanding, with 97 hours in the 80th percentile.

The negative reviews play time is 18 times lower than the positive reviews median play time. A low negative review time (median : 113 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 X3: Reunion and decided to review it and get a refund under 2 hours. The Players' feedback section might help understanding the issue.
