    Sadly, steam heavily disagrees with this statement. They would rather have full opinions allowed regardless, and then delist them when reported as offtopic so they still appear, but don’t show in the score.

    I disagree with that mentality as well, since I’m sick of seeing games have shit reviews, then look at them and its because of something that the parent company did instead of it being about the game itself.

    They do the same shit with steam discussions. I heavily think they should community ban people reported for using the clown reaction award with the intent to be rude or mean to the person they are awarding it to, and the people doing blatent circlejerk/rage baiting in the communities, but until it becomes a problem that risks them getting investigated again like before, they won’t.

      The context surrounding a game is important, though. these are just Nazis and should have their opinion disregarded, but all of Nintendo’s slop should be hated purely for the context of Nintendo being evil. any developer than stands for good things should also get a boost in positive reviews too (although that doesn’t happen enough, maybe because the only ones i can think of off hand are just good regardless?).
