I would argue the first use was malicious and that it spawned even worse instances after. It is a known favorite tool of gamergaters and right wingers
Giving a game bad reviews because of "lackluster gameplay" and DRM is malicious?
With the intent of tanking review scores so the game does not sell as well is, yes.
What other purpose for reviews is there than signaling to others whether or not they should buy the game?
Do you think the negative reviews for No Rest For The Wicked don't have the intention of making it not sell as well? And if not, why do you think players leave them?
