Is it under consideration to, at some point, make the user reviews for the games on GOG sortable by user rating? Sorting by most helpful or most recent is all well and good, but I'm one of those demented souls who seeks out the one and two-star ratings to see why someone may have been dissatisfied with the game in question.

My apologies if this has been asked for in the past.
This is a good idea. I was looking for something similar and rather disappointed it's not already a feature.
high rated

I actually think this is what makes a rating system unhelpful. Critical (despite possiblly being informative) reviews of games get down-voted by fans. Not so hot.

Well, obviously he's staff at GameIndustry, considering he used 'his' review.

Heh, he was riffing on my unflagging devotion to NWN. But yeah, I'd agree with that - a well written critical review is far more valuable than a poorly written 'THIS GITS FIVE STARS COZ I PLAYED IT AS KID AND WAS DURRTARDED THEN LOLZORZ' kind of review.

It's not new, someone devoted an entire thread to his shenannigans. I believe he said he wanted the acclaim of having highly rated reviews. I think perhaps he bought into that rumor that posting a review enters you into a drawing for a free game.
