I always make a point to at least look at a few of them. Sometimes it's ragebait, but there have been a few times where the review has actually mentioned something that was a deal breaker for me.

!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.
Our Rules:
1. Keep it civil.
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.
2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.
I should not need to explain this one.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.
Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

MODERATORS
I get a lot of good information from bad reviews, just by having a bit of introspection.
“This game is too easy!!”
Oh, that’s okay, I was looking for something easier.
“Two body types!!”
Oh, wow, so the only people that hate it are bigots.
“If you die once to the first boss, then it kneecaps your stats and you get no healing items for half the game.”
Wait, what…? But everyone else loves the game. Is this true?
“lol it’s fine, only scrubs die to the first boss, if you do just restart the 3-hour intro.”
Are these reviewers paid!? No thanks.
