Also, keep in mind that "great steam user reviews" is only ONE of many possible measures of quality. But even w/ that, so many go unnoticed

I love this article because it's basically an objectively quantifiable refutation of "all 'good' games will automatically succeed on Steam"

well, the problem is defining "what is good"? I mean a game could be PERFECT for a group of 1000 people = 1000 positive reviews

sure but I wasn't the one who first used the word "good." I'll settle for "has an audience that would like it"

Point is, this is pretty strong evidence that there are well-regarded games that don't do well, which refutes the initial claim

Making a good game is only the first part of making a commercially successful game. You then have to reach the audience and get info out

To some degree Steam's decision on Steam Keys review change I think hurts different ways to get info out there as they don't count much

It also hurts developers who sell on their site or do crowdfunding as the normal evangelists for it don't count algorithmically

Ya - a handful of people were abusing it and it sadly causes impact throughout. The new Keymailer Steam system may help there some

It also may help with the fake influencer scams and the like. Assuming it is done decently and implemented well there which we have to see
