Summary
Legend of Mortal has a TrueGG Rating of 95.8%: the positive share among 2,056 reviews written in the last 180 days by players with 20+ hours. That is 18.8 points above Steam's overall 77.0%, so players who really play the current version rate it higher than the headline number suggests (all time: 84.5%).
Reviews written under 2 hours make up 4% of the total, and only 46% 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 87% positive versus 98% at 100–200h: the more people play, the more they like it.
Negative reviews most often mention updates and the developers and 未完成・手抜き. Positive reviews praise the story, how fun it feels, and translation.
Among Japanese-language reviews, the TrueGG Rating is 99.2%, similar to all languages.
Re-weighting reviews by trust signals (playtime, length, how the game was obtained) barely changes the rating (76.2% 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 live operations and online play (Updates & developers). These shift over time, so weigh recent reviews more than the all-time figure. It is also a game many people bounce off early (early reviews are much less positive than those of players who stuck with it).
