Am I missing something? I've never played it on steam but the game is free and enjoyable; I've yet to feel obligated to spend any money on microtransactions.
The problem I think is that they’ve promised a coop story mode, which was to be the defining feature of it. They cancelled it, so it’s just overmatch. They also decided to change the team size to a more standard 5 instead of the previous 6, which means some friend groups probably have to break up
Yeah they changed some stuff people got pissed off over, but I still think the game is fun to play. There's no way it's objectively the worst game on Steam, the fanbase is just overly butthurt. Not saying some of the user concerns aren't warranted, but this is clearly a case of review bombing rather than an objective score.
It is definitely a combo of legitimate bad reviews and review bombing.
