When it comes to Reviews on Steam, there are a two things you need to look at. The first thing is what ratings it has. Whether it be Mixed reviews or Overwhelmingly Positive, this is what most people look at.
The other thing is the amount of reviews. This is a massive number that makes or breaks what the rating even means.
If a game has 5,000 reviews and it is Overwhelmingly positive, that might not be as huge as a game that is Mostly positive with 500,000 reviews. It is all about perspective.
