Adding to this; Steam provides a hub where players purchase, play and review games. Meaning that I find the reviews to be more genuine.

E.g. every time I hear about a game that reviews decently well getting “review bombed” on Steam it’s because the company, usually the publisher, is fucking over the players in some way. Something that is well reported by players who can leave a product review on the same platform they purchased and played on.

So I wait for Steam release for reviews (on top of it being my preferred platform).
