That’s the thing, though: because we’re just trying to satisfy an algorithm, it really doesn’t matter what you write. I always just tell people they can leave a review that just says “Game is really cool, I like the dialog” or whatever, and that counts.
I think a lot of people feel pressure to say something thoughtful about a game, but it’s really not necessary. And as far as I’m concerned, knowing that they played it and liked it is plenty enough for me. I literally only care about Steam reviews because of the algorithm deciding how many people get to see my game at all.

BRB, gonna dash off some quick reviews for, like, all of the indie games I’ve enjoyed.
I actually just noticed one of my friends wishlisted the game. Wishlisting also helps with the algorithm too, right?
Either way, I’m gonna go buy a copy for her.
Hot dang, thanks!
Wishlisting does help, yeah. Though it’s much more important before a game releases.
Let me know what she thinks if she plays it!
