It certainly doesn’t seem like it deserves to be in the top ten worst rated games of all time on Steam. It’s just kinda okay.

my understanding is it was the price point ($70) coupled with the number of cripplingly bad bugs the game had at launch. these can be fixed after the fact but obviously, a bad launch can't generally be recovered from except in the long term--and i don't know that Redfall is going to get that kind of leash.

If gamers are factoring in the $70 price point as an immediate point against a game, I have some bad news…

Hmm, I must have just gotten lucky or started the game after the usual early patch caught most of the bad ones. I also played it on PC Game Pass so I wasn't really evaluating it with a particular price in mind, which I'm sure made a big difference in my experience.
