10 months ago After comparing everything I could between older (working) and newer (not working) games, I found the former had "Platform" set as "PC (Windows)" whereas the latter had this field blank. Filling this in for one of the non-working games fixed the issue and the reviews are now showing. I don't ever remember using this field so the issue is likely in IGDB where I'm downloading the metadata from, or a recent bug in Playnite that isn't picking up data for this field.
Hopefully this helps anyone with the same issue.

Review Viewer
Bug Description
No reviews are showing for any game I've added to Playnite after June 18 this year.
Existing reviews are being updated (eg some reviews are dated yesterday for games added before June).
Also the corresponding ExtensionsData folder appears to be downloading review data in json format for the newly added games, so the issue seems to be with the addon displaying that data.
I've tried different themes (currently using Startdust), also uninstalling and reinstalling the addon (and deleting the corresponding ExtensionsData folder) but with the same issue (which is odd as I would assume if the problem was in the data this would clear it - either not being able to see any reviews or seeing all of them).
To Reproduce
No response
Logs
I'm not comfortable publicly posting logs, if this is a dealbreaker I will put up with the issue or uninstall the extension. Related (ReviewViewer) extensions.log entries seem to all be starting download and download completed successfully - I can't see any errors. Similarly with playnite.log - only entries for installing the extension and downloading yaml string content.
Screenshots
No response
EDIT: Most of the games with the issue are Steam games, and the corresponding (yet not displaying) json files seem to have reviews in them.
