Free games on Epic Games store. Meanwhile at Epic: laying off over 800 employees, because company spending more money than they earn.

Genuine question, why the Steam reviews matters at all?

[–] thingsiplay@kbin.social 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

An individual review does not matter too much (unless it has good text), but an overall score can give a hint. In example if a game gets a lot of flag from the users of recent reviews, than something is going on. It's always good to have a way of user reviews alongside the media outlets. You can even see if the game got for free (on paid games) and how long the guy played it at the time of writing the review. And it should incentivize developers to work on the game. Better than having nothing, like on Epic Games. User/Player opinions are not welcome there at all.

To know whether the game is good or bad.

Blood, Gore, Violence and Nudity? For free? Sign. Me. Up.

I kid of course. Nowadays I just get all of them (except that PC builder and 911 operator stuff...). I only have about 30-40 years left in my life, and I doubt I'll ever clear my Epic freebie backlog.
