Errr. No, it means you aren't interested enough, which is ok. But to know whether something is obwrrqtes you not you need to experience that said thing, otherwise is nothing but prejudice

Prejudice against games is again a non-issue  they are just entertainment after all. I have a strong prejudice against shooters, but I can't call any shooter overrated if I haven't actually played it in first place

Disagree. You don't need to do something yourself in order to judge it.

You don't need to get shot to know that getting shot is bad, just like you don't need to play a game to know that it's good/bad. It does help, but there are also other ways to figure that out.

A person saying a game is overrated though is claiming that reviewers who have actually spent considerable hands on time with the game, are wrong. So in that instance you might look for confirmation of their understanding and exposure to the game. Is their opinion based entirely on watching video? Have they spent a reasonable amount of time playing the game? Do they even own the system? Do they have a very obvious post history of slamming a particular platform and their post is about as subtle as a piano falling out a window?

Simply 'good' or 'bad' often falls more in line with common opinion and reviews.
