Help me with a "community notes" idea for Steam user reviews....

[Zed Clampet]

Two of the worst websites in the world, Facebook and X, both have some sort of community notes program. I think that with all the wild and unfounded accusations that people make (like the game is mining crypto in the background or the art is made by AI) that people should be able to make notes on reviews. And, of course, people play for an hour, misunderstand the game, and write wildly inaccurate reviews. Misinformation of this type should also be addressed.

I don't think Valve would go for people actually writing comments since they allow people to turn them off and most people do, so I was thinking of maybe a dropdown box with several options; for instance, "Inaccurate Crypto Accusation". These usually go like "My GPU is running near 85 percent! They are mining crypto in the background!" And what is more disturbing is these accusations get lots of likes and tend to move to the top of the review section. And a couple of days ago, the top review for a game was accusing it of using AI art. The developer then posted a video of their artist making the art. The person who made the review responded, "I'm still believe it was made with AI, so I'm not changing my review."

Anyway, my question is what responses need to go into that dropdown box

Errr, if Steam wanted, they could just switch the default to 'comments on' or even take away the option completely. Older reviews always allowed comments.

At least developers can always comment and defend themselves.
