Btw, there is no freedom of speech on EGS, because their "user review" system is neutered in a way that it "randomly" picks user reviews based on scores, meaning it will only ever pick the higher review scores, not the negative ones, and even then, the way they have worded 1 star makes it still sound good, not bad, which is enough to tell me that their review system is completely fucked and not at all designed for us the users, but for the studios/publishers (Publishers/studios can also 100% opt out of even allowing user reviews, which is a massive anti-consumer red flag). 

I don't know about their user review system, but "for the studios/publishers" sounds just about how I view EGS: It's not for the gamers, it's just for the studios/publishers. That's the vibe I've been getting from the beginning, and that's still the vibe I'm getting, more or less.
