Looks like Valve is introducing a new review system to filter out "unhelpful" reviews (www.eurogamer.net)

Yeah, that's why I said it's neither because people can be unpredictable. It might not filter out irrelevant content because people love to upvote memes and it might filter out criticism because sometimes people downvote criticism.

Overall like with some other Steam features the value of the feature is dependent on the community, and generally that value has been a net positive.
