Are people supposed write an extensive in-depth review for everything they rate? Surely you wouldn&#x27;t want the plebs buying games to put you out of a job.<p>If someone&#x27;s honest opinion is &quot;disappointed, not worth $18&quot; then who are you to say that they shouldn&#x27;t leave that comment and rating? If you don&#x27;t like the text perhaps you should ask Steam to allow rating without a comment. I think you would still complain that a bad rating might cause bad sales. Does it ever occur to you that the game is just bad?<p>You aren&#x27;t going to get me to spend more money by trying to make me think of the team that made it. You claim that isn&#x27;t your intent but I think it clearly is. You are advocating in favour of changes to get more sales.<p>I&#x27;ll wait years and pick the gems from among the rubbish for a pittance.
