Summary
Farthest Frontier has a TrueGG Rating of 83.3%: the positive share among 1,205 reviews written in the last 180 days by players with 20+ hours, close to Steam's overall 86.0%. Players who really play it broadly agree with the headline number (all time: 89.4%).
Reviews written under 2 hours make up 5% of the total, and only 57% of them are positive. Some players bounce off early, but those who get past the opening rate it higher. Steam accepts refund requests within 2 hours of play and 14 days of purchase.
In the last 180 days, reviews at 10–20h are 80% positive versus 89% at 200h+: the more people play, the more they like it.
Negative reviews most often mention pacing (more than at launch), crashes and bugs (less than at launch), and controls and UI. Positive reviews praise how fun it feels and player base and matchmaking.
Among Japanese-language reviews, the TrueGG Rating is 85.3%, similar to all languages.
Re-weighting reviews by trust signals (playtime, length, how the game was obtained) barely changes the rating (85.1% adjusted), so Steam's number is not noticeably distorted by key giveaways or throwaway reviews.
All figures come from Steam's public review counts, and topics are counted with our published dictionary (no AI). Data as of 2026-10-19.
Why it is rated this way
Complaints center on the game's design (Movement & pacing, Controls, UI & camera, Boring / repetitive). These rarely change with updates, so the rating likely reflects the game itself. Judge by whether it suits you. It is also a game many people bounce off early (early reviews are much less positive than those of players who stuck with it).
