Yeah, 100%. "Review bombing" suggests that people are leaving disingenuous bad reviews due to some personal or political axe to grind with the developer. This just looks like a game that got a lukewarm reception, but at least the information in the article doesn't suggest that any review bombing is occurring.
I'm a big Ori fan, and I wish Moon Studios the best. But the games market is oversaturated right now, and it's a tough time for all indie devs. It doesn't necessarily mean that someone is out to get them if their game isn't an overnight success.
