Steam reviews, in my experience, tend to either heavily factor in (or favour) performance and bugs (or lack thereof) over everything else or be infested with meme reviews.
Backloggd is usually what I default to if I absolutely must read reviews before picking up a game, but there are also some meme reviews, biases, etc. Ultimately, reviews are so subjective that what we read beforehand won't really be useful imo, the only experience and opinion which matters is ours.
