Summary
Schedule I has a TrueGG Rating of 96.4%: the positive share among 22,957 reviews written in the last 180 days by players with 10+ hours, close to Steam's overall 97.8%. Players who really play it broadly agree with the headline number (all time: 97.9%).
Reviews written under 2 hours make up 2% of the total, with 86% positive. The early hours do not split opinion much.
Beyond the first hours, approval is fairly even across playtime.
Negative reviews most often mention updates and the developers (more than at launch), crashes and bugs, and boredom.
Among Japanese-language reviews, the TrueGG Rating is 95.1%, similar to all languages.
Re-weighting reviews by trust signals (playtime, length, how the game was obtained) barely changes the rating (97.4% 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.
