If I perma-remove a game, does it remove my review as well?
If I ask steam to permanently remove a game from my library, will it remove my review for said game as well?

I can't return some games because I've owned them for years, but I'd rather remove them completely than have that stuff associated with me. However, I do not necessarily want my reviews to disappear. Does anyone know if those would be removed, too?

You can check my reviews yourself, Days Gone (removed), Aliens: Fireteam Elite (removed). It looks like I don't own them, but I did and eventually removed them from my account.

oops, 2 hours not 3, hit the wrong key sorry.

Your reviews will be fine, I reviewed Days Gone and eventually removed it from my account after a short amount of play time. The review is still there, as it is with other games I've removed.

Dang, two opposite responses.

Did you let Steam remove it or was it possible for you to refund it?

I don't want it for my personal record, tbh, but yeah I've thought about that, too.

Thank you so much.

(On a side-note, I read a few of your reviews and like your writing style.)

Thanks, I try to be as honest as possible as I read other peoples reviews and they help me too :steamthumbsup:

I've just thought of something that you can also check, sometimes when a review is done, near the top of that review, it will say, product refunded, that's also another indicator. Typo.
