Looking at the 5 star reviews across different sites there are striking simularities to many of the reviews which makes me believe Bioware are review bombing (positively) several different websites in order to drown out actual criticism of the game.
Just read a few of them for yourself. Doesn't matter if it's here or on steam:
They say "I'm 4 hours in" "I'm 6 hours in" etc basically stating a significant amount of time. Good enough to at least know the game enough to have a valid opinion. Or at least want people to think your opinion is valid.
Then something about how much fun it is. "Havnt had this much fun in years" really?
Then telling the reader to ignore the 1 star reviews. The way every review says this almost identically makes me believe the rest of their review is just there to add legitimacy to this one statement.
Insult the 1 star reviewers with some dehumanising language. Making them seem like rednecks or incels. How history likes to repeat itself...eh?
We live in crazy times where the story of the kings clothes has never been more relevant.

This is one of the best books I've read. It takes a while to get over the disappointment of having a supernatural element interrupt what begins as an absolutely flawless pandemic novel, but the story makes up for it.
