Time Played

Chart displaying Men of War: Red Tide percentiles of time played for positive, negative, and early access reviews.

This chart displays the time players have spent in Men of War: Red Tide, showing a comparison between positive and negative reviews. The time played is very good, reaching 46 hours in the 80th percentile.

The median play time for the negative reviews is 11 times less than the median for positive reviews. When the negative review time is low (median : 136 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 Men of War: Red Tide and decided to review it and get a refund under 2 hours. The Players' feedback section might give some insight about that.
