Valve has added a whole new variety of rewards to its Steam storefront. You can show your appreciation for a helpful guide, reviewing a game, or a Steam mod in the Workshop by awarding it a prize. You will need to use your Steam Points to purchase a reward and then return to that Steam Review, Guide, or Workshop content to give it the appropriate distinction for the user's hard work.
On the first page of every store page for a game on Steam, there is a section for reviews that players who bought and played it can leave on how they liked or hated it. Below those reviews you'll find icons, and you can mark whether the read was helpful, if it wasn't, if it was funny, or you can give it a prize. When you give it a prize, it now has an emoticon at the bottom, and if you hover your mouse over it, it shows a little animation of how you may have felt about the user's written review. You will also reward guides written by users on a game and users of mods created that are readily available in Steam Workshop.
These rewards allow you to further express your appreciation for the written content and to show other users how they felt after reading or experiencing that content. Each of the prizes cost 300 points, which equates to $ 1,00 spent at the Steam store. You can only receive points by purchasing games directly from Steam or contributing to the Steam community and receiving a reward from published content, such as a review, guide, screenshot, a video or an element of the workshop.
Unfortunately, in the past, Steam users have used this review section to “review bomb games” that they didn't like, or the developers made a particular decision that the user base didn't. disagreed.
For example, when Borderlands 3 was released as an Epic Games Store exclusive before releasing later on Steam, the Borderlands 3 Steam store page, and the other Borderlands products on Steam received extremely negative reviews from users of Steam. Many disagreed with developer Gearbox's decision and wanted to retaliate by making these previously popular games bad for other users. While these rewards are more of a fun spin on the system currently being used on Reddit, they may not be able to create the Steam reviews section and a fully reliable program given the way Steam users have handled it. the application of the functionality to games in the past.
