Valve has implemented a sweeping change to Steam reviews which causes reviews and recommendations from Key Activations to be filtered out by default. This means that only games purchased on Steam directly will count towards game rankings and be seen by customers unless a Steam user actively changes the filter. Personally, I have a problem with this and wanted to discuss it.
