If a group of people are influenced by whatever, and suddenly write a bunch of negative reviews I would consider that a review bomb if they played 0 hours, or 10k hours. Adding the weird stipulation that it needs to be people that never played it is not a requirement I’ve ever heard. Now is it more likely that the trolls will be people who haven’t played, absolutely, because the low cost (nothing) of doing so while the people that play games are actually gaming.
Review bombing is a coordinated online campaign where a large group of people post a deluge of negative reviews for a product, service, or business, often with the intent to harm its reputation or sales. This tactic is usually employed as a form of protest, coercion, or even just trolling, and is often seen in response to perceived issues with the product or its creators.

It is a bit of weighing the convenience of Steam dealing with your catalog of games, making them all just a download away, and keeping them outside of Steam and needing to come up with your own currarion method. And if you are buying (licensing it - because apparently nobody actually owns their games) the game outside one of these storefronts, you still have DRM to deal with most likely anyway.
Just have to weigh the pros vs cons.
