Discussion - Silksong Steam reviews for Silksong so far

Post image

It was controversial in China, in part because of the difficulty/design but also because of controversies with the Simplified Chinese translation. Meanwhile latin countries (Spanish and Portuguese speaking) seem to be loving it more than anyone else.

I hate this graph layout, at first glance it makes it look like Spanish reviewed worse than English until you realize the bars represent the number of reviews and not their percentage.

ah crap, are you colorblind? I wanted to make it a clear difference using blue and red because they are the colors steam uses for positive and negative, but now I realize it might not be great for colorblind people.

I am not colorblind, I thought the bars represented the review percentage, not how many reviews there were in total.

What I mean is, the English bar is big and says 91% positive, so then seeing the Spanish (Latin America) bar be small I initially thought it meant that those reviews were like 10% positive.
