Every reviewer who signed this should post a review, but of the business practices and why not to buy the game.

engage in any discussions that are detrimental to the reputation of the game

You would literally break the contract

Arguably it’s not detrimental to the reputation of the game, but the company.

“Great game. Never buy it.”

"It's a game. Don't buy from them."

[–] fmstrat@lemmy.nowsci.com 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Nope. They would be talking about the company not the game.

[–] lauha@lemmy.one 1 points 6 months ago

Which discourages people from buying the game, thus hurting the game.

"Good game, but the company behind it is shit and required me to sign this contract. . Remember this whenever your reading the totally honest reviews about how good the game is."

When they reach the aspects of the game that they didn't like they can just say "let's skip this next part about CTF mode, because I signed a contract" and let the viewers deduce what they deduce.
