I just noticed that when I look at a game which I know nothing about and Steam says “Mostly Positive” I tend to immediately get suspicious
Robocraft used to be good, but I don’t know if it being rated mostly positive and being good ever overlapped
My internal rating is:
Overwhelmingly positive: game is actually quite good and also probably, but not always, a niche game.
Very positive: most people don’t hate it
Mostly positive: Game has one or two big, specific issues for most people, like a specific performance or gameplay problem, but is otherwise fun.
Mixed: game either sucks or has had some controversy. Usually games that are good but not worth the money go here.
Mostly negative: game sucks
Overwhelmingly negative: exclusively reserved for shovelware and yearly sports games like FIFA and NBA games.

NMS is the only one that I can think of but here are some fun plays below.

Donut County and Stray are both quite short and an absolute delight to play.
Stray is brilliant. It’s the most cat cat ever in a game.
Mostly positive usually just means it’s not for everyone, just look at Shadow of the Erdtree.
