![]() Luckily for me, most of the grievances people had with the game wan't an issue for me-so I bought it. I ended up getting a LOT of accurate and useful information. So I read some threads, watched a couple videos that were posted, and otherwise picked the brains of a couple people that seemed like they could explain their grievances with the game. That's okay, i'll just read up on WHY they don't like it. I found most people(that vote on reddit) really didn't like it. I was really interested in it and went here as well as some other places for info. Most games are going to lean one way or the other for crowds, that doesn't mean you can't get good information out of the discussions here. It's really funny seeing comments like this, because then I see the exact opposite comment somewhere else. People who dared to say Titanfall was bland during the release were constantly at the bottom Pretty soon, it won't even be worth looking. Now I have to go a couple pages down to get a decent cross section of opinions. I could go to the front store page for a game and get a few worthwhile opinions, positive and negative. I was excited for steam reviews, and they seemed great for a while. Of course I'm ranting and generalizing, but it bothers me. I am amazed that, going by the vote percentages, 85% or more of Steam users are mouth-breathers who would rather read a useless joke than something that will actually help them decide whether or not to buy a game. If someone posts an irrelevant one-line joke, they immediately rise to the top of the pile. If someone posts a well-thought-out positive review, they can get a few upvotes. If someone dares to post some valid criticism of a game, they will get downvoted to oblivion. I don't know if this has been a problem since day 1, or it just caught on recently, but I've been noticing it more and more lately. Thorough, useful user reviews for games on Steam are getting totally drowned out by one-liner quips and puns that tell you less than nothing about the game.
