Hello there!

Original Google Forms file is not shareable, but in 99.99% it has same data as this excel, except it has a bit different UI.
Otherwise data is all same, no changes made.
Right now its kind raw, needs some time to make it clean.
*I have removed all Names and time stamps.

I'm researching Steam reviews for thesis. Very often i make purchase decision based on reviews what i have read. Couple times reviews got me good, they were fake positive reviews ( at the end just wasted money on bad product).
Mine point is in that how much really people trust this reviews.

I trust negative reviews much more. If I am interested in a game, I mainly focus on the negative reviews to see what issues the game has. After that, if I am still interested, but need more info, I watch video reviews or gameplay videos.

I'm researching Steam reviews for thesis.

Should have just said so. I dunno, I already filled the survey so could be unnecessary to discuss the same topic again here, but yeah, I know cases of developers removed from Steam for faking reviews, even some "not so small". It's stupid, but then again people do stupid stuff all the time.

Cool poll! I write reviews on occasion. It can be a lot of work so I don't tend to leave a review for every title and the ones I choose to do so for can be a bit random. Most of the reviews I write are for my group of friends to reference if they stumble across, although, the reviews are public regardless. I have a mix of serious and "funny" but an overall theme I try to incorporate is my personal opinion and my experience. I do wish steam offered more than the 'positive-negative' system as I often find myself stuck somewhere in the middle.

Same, I would love also see improved system, with more options and especially PC hardware stats near review.

For the poll, why did you ask for a specific age, rather than use age ranges?

Actually, I now realize I meant to, but I forgot how old I was. Eh, close enough.

Why, what did you use? The age you wish you were? ;)

you can write approx, i manually divide them, thats gives more flexibility and is more accurate.

The anomaly can appear like in 49 - 51 years range.
other wise it can be 40 - 60 years range.
That's huge difference.

None will know who you are and how old are you in vote. Since im removing all SG data from it later.

Please release the aggregated results when the poll ends?

I am not sure I understand what you mean by "Do you like updates what steam releases for review sections?".

Aside from that: very interesting! I hope all goes well in your research.
