Dead by Daylight Jumps to Positive Ratings After Steam Hides 'Off-Topic' Reviews Following BurntPeanut Backlash
Dead by Daylight has returned to 'Mostly Positive' recent reviews on Steam after Valve labeled a chunk of ratings surrounding TheBurntPeanut backlash as 'off-topic.'
Following the backlash surrounding controversial streamer TheBurntPeanut, Dead by Daylight's reviews on Steam have transitioned back to Mostly Positive. Valve intervened, labeling a chunk of ratings as off-topic, and has now excluded these reviews from the overall scoring. The review period between November 1 and 6 has been deemed as containing an abnormal set of reviews, unrelated to a user's likely enjoyment of the game.
Steam users have the option to unmark these reviews, which would then result in a Mixed score. Despite the ratings shift, fans of the game remain unhappy with Dead by Daylight, citing poor customer service. Valve's review labeling process aims to combat review-bombing and accurately represent a game's rating.
