Steam Just Hid the Truth From You… (Gamers Beware)

Steam just changed how reviews work—and if you’re not paying attention, you could be buying censored or broken games without ever knowing the truth.

Here’s the deal: Valve will now filter reviews by language. By default, you’ll only see reviews in your account’s language. Sounds small, right? Wrong. This “tweak” essentially hides global backlash.

When a game gets censored or players overseas start review bombing to warn others—you won’t see it anymore. The score you see will look “clean.” Like nothing happened.

🎮 Example: Wu Chang: Fallen Feathers. That game was censored after pressure from Chinese nationalists. Gamers worldwide left negative reviews to warn people. Under this new system? Most Western players wouldn’t even see that outrage. They’d just see a glowing score, buy the game, and never know.

Valve claims this is about “cultural differences” and “translation issues.” But let’s be real—this is about burying criticism and sanitizing AAA reputations. Indie games? They fly under the radar. But the biggest releases—the ones with the most backlash—get protected.

⚠️ Here’s what you NEED to do:

Don’t trust the default score

Switch back to the old system in your Steam settings

Check ALL reviews across languages and hit translate

Because if a game is being censored, manipulated, or screwing its players—you deserve to know.

What do you think? Is this change protecting gamers from “noise,” or is it censorship in disguise? Drop your thoughts below 👇
