More so just the fact that it's not interesting or unique to dislike a game that rates well or vice versa. That seems fairly common.
I mean more by the fact that I assume, 1/3rd to 25% could be related to new users that have tried the game and didn't enjoy.

Most people that I know that have played older MS Flight Simulator games think this is the best one since mid 90's. But I also suspect some of the negative ratings are related to users inability to play the game correctly due to poor PC performance.

I suspect the game being on Game Pass for PC has something to do with the user score being lower as well. Which is going to be the norm moving forward in my opinion. When you give more people access to your games, more people who wouldn't have purchased the game and are newer to the franchises you get more feedback. More positive but also I assume a bunch more negative reviews.

When you give gamers the ability to play more games, you give them the ability to like and dislike more games. Especially if they are trying out a new genre.
