You do realize you are cherry picking right? The power of steam reviews it that it's just users posting what they want and there is a score aggregate with cool tools that tell you if a game is being review bombed. There are plenty of very good reviews on steam and I use them all the time when going through my many thousands of wish listed indie games. Please don't tell you me you think reviews done by "game journalists" getting early review copies and going to review events is better.... on the whole. At least with steam reviews I know it's people like me rating a game.
