Valve have carefully tweaked the user review system for Steam games, to now include language-specific user review scores.

I’m might be crazy, but I thought we already had this for a while now

Pretty sure you could narrow down the individual reviews displayed by language, but the calculated rating were still all reviews or by time frame.

Some games may have translation issues, specific cultural references and so on. Valve feel this language-based review score will help to capture these issues and that “Calculating a language-specific review score means that we can better distil the sentiment of these different groups of customers, and in doing so, better serve potential customers that belong to those groups”.
