- It serves as a promotional tool for the main game, which may intrigue players who enjoyed the previous titles.
- It is misleadingly presented as a game when it is essentially a non-interactive advertisement with minimal gameplay.

6 mentions Positive Neutral NegativeThe monetization aspect of "The Uncertain" has been criticized for misleadingly presenting a demo as a full game, which detracts from genuine developers and misleads gamers. This practice is seen as an unethical marketing strategy that exploits Steam's platform for visibility without offering a complete product, ultimately harming the gaming community.
“While it might seem like an innocuous mistake, publishing demos and advertisements as if they are full games is misleading and in some ways harmful.”
“This advertisement is taking up marketing space and visibility that would be better made available to a developer that's done the right thing and created a full game.”
“Because this is an advertisement, posted as a game to mislead gamers and unethically draw publicity to a game at the cost of gamers and genuine developers who did the right thing, I can't recommend it.”
