I think you might have answered your own question here: review Steem (or HF 20) as if it were a new MMO or tabletop RPG. You can note which parts work, and which don’t. What the “game designers” were trying to do, and how then”players” game the system. Etc.
Voila! A post that appeals to Steem nerdians and gamerfolk all at the same time!
