How do you feel like knowing indie developers are buying their positive steam reviews from Fiverr?
Why aren't you making money shilling?

I wish I was making this shit up
>Charging $5 when you may have to buy the game in question
God thethese people are dumb
>>333266781
This is why you should only be reading the negative reviews.
I've been doing this for years already. $50ish a month.
>>333266848
>5 star ratings on steam
>>333266863
>read negative reviews
>2000+ hours played
>it's shit XD thumbs down!
>alternatively it's some redditor shouting about how all DLC is inherently bad
>>333266991
You're fucking retarded
>>333266863
I only do this. I'm not interested in some guy praising a game endlessly, I want some criticism to make up my own mind.
>>333266869
How many of those games did you actually own beforehand?
I don't imagine they give the game on top of that, are you happy with the dozens of indie garbage?
>>333267027
he's right tho
>>333266714
>$5 for one positive review
That really doesn't seem that viable unless you're a AAA studio that can buy out the actual press anyway.

>>333266848
This just makes me so very sad. For many reasons.

>>333266714
I guess 5$ for 100 reviews is a good deal
but one review? Nigga like anyone would give a fuck... steam is not Amazon, there are literally thousands of reviews for a single game

>implying an intelligent reviewer can't give criticism or warnings even if the overall recommendation is positive
I mean, I know very few people can be as enlightened as me but you have to keep that possibility in mind.

PBP
pirate before purchase
>not watching actual gameplay videos before getting the game
I know some retards here get triggered by youtubers but there are useful channels that give a good overview of the gameplay mechanics. Stop buying shit on day 1 and actually look at the game yourself.
Steam Refunds
Basically a 2hr full product demo everybody forgets
>>333267627
>there are literally thousands of reviews for a single game
On popular games, yeah.
Many smaller games have like 3 reviews, 1 good one can swing their headline average to Positive which is pretty important
Why even bother with steam reviews. 90% of them are just shitty greentext stories that ends with 'would buy again'
>>333268882
>I buy indie games because of a single rando's review on Steam
Wew
>>333266814
nigga they expect you to send them a key for the game + the 5$
a pesron I know currently shills for beamdog on steam forums.
>>333267386
this is (dare I say it) some pretty good journalism
>>333269885
"""journalism"""
>>333266714
These kind of faggots have been on here forever, some even use bots that pretty accurately recreate an entire discussion complete with dank memes.
Everything is getting so predatory anymore. Money is simply running out in the middle and bottom so lying, cheating and bullying are all considered fair play.
>paying 25 dollars for 5 reviews
who the fuck buys a game based on steam reviews only?

Question is, how many people are using these services? There's a lot of horse shit on Fiverr that people are trying to make money on, but don't actually sell at all.
>>333266714
what should I feel? games journalism has been doing this since the dawn of time
>>333267890
Not in the Steam reviews.
>>333271885
nice meme
>>333266714
$5 for a single positive review that weights as much as a bad one seems like a pretty bad deal
>>333266991
What´s the problem, if any person would know the pros and cons of a game it would be this person.
>>333267265
why? lets say you are a indie developers and sell a game for 3.99.
Buy a hundred~ shills and you have a shitton of positive reviews for an ultra cheap indie, 500~ dollars invested and a tremendous start going by reviews.
There are services a lot more reliable than fiverr
