A control lever like this can never be idiotic.

Leaving positiv reviews after Microsoft bought and destroyed the studio does exactly nothing.

Wrong, it helps raise awareness at the very least.

Aren't we talking about it? I'd never heard of this game before

I found quite a few articles on various sites about the matter. More articles mean more raised awareness.

It can directly affect how many people will buy the game in the future on PC. Might not be a huge number, and maybe it look like kids throwing a tantrum, but as long as it takes out any ammount of money from MS pocket Im all for it.

Edit: nevermind, its positive reviews, I did not pay attention.
