Just taking an honest look at myself I went back and read some of my early reviews from when I entered the hobby in 2015 and WOW. I basically had to revise or delete every review.
Some games that I had reviewed I had only played on location a couple of times and had absolutely NO business reviewing. Now, I don't play in a league, and when I play on location, I usually don't play more than two or three games in on any given machine. So, for me, I can't see myself putting enough time in on a modern location game to give a decent review.
I know there are probably a lot of flawed review approaches, (like people rating new purchases high because they want that word form of self validation) but do you guys think it is fair to review a game without putting in substantial time on it?
