If it's on steam it isn't even really review bombing. Cause for steam reviews you have to own the game. So this is people who own the game giving a warning to potentially new people who might get the game about what's going on and a recommendation to not buy it. Usually review bombing is people who have never even played the game or consumed the media reviewing it bad to bomb it for whatever reason. So this definitely isn't that and they're just trying to shift the definition of review bombing to any kind of mass negative reviews for whatever reason.
The reason is to get paid by corps to wipe the bad reviews.
Yep cause the journalists make money through ads and game developers are usually the ones buying the ad space so they gotta do what the companies want or they might lose their advertising as punishment.
