I agree that having played the damned thing is the only thing that
should be a requirement. I don't think there should be any other

derive no pleasure from is going to help anyone though.

It could help someone like yourself who, for whatever reason, made the
same mistake as you.  Something got you to play the game,  Maybe it
was a misleading review or description of the game.  Maybe your friends
bullied you into playing it.  Maybe it was just a dumb misunderstanding
on your part, like with the guy who bought a model kit not realizing
they'd have to put it together.  Not everyone reading the reviews is
going to be fan of the genre, so the reviewers don't need to be either.
