Or, it could convince someone who would absolutely love the game if they
actually played it, not to buy it. Ask any 50 people what they liked or disliked
about a game, you'll get 50 different opinions. Just because you or someone
else doesn't like a particular game, doesn't make that opinion the only
valid one, or by any means (god forbid) the 'right' one.

Better to state clearly and succintly what you didn't like about a game, and
then move on. Beating a negative opinion of the game to death here, in some
misguided attempt to prevent anyone from ever buying the game from this
point on, is rather silly.
