Just get rid of the forums and let the devs/publishers link to their own: problem solved.

What does that achieve? Devs/publishers can moderate their Steam forums, and it saves them money and time compared to hosting their own.

It puts the burden on the devs/publishers, not steam. Every time someone goes to the steam forums, they think it should be moderated by steam.

Who uses steam forums anyway? I've stumbled across threads through search engine results before but I don't recall a single instance of finding useful information there. Best case scenario it's a description of a problem and 300 people saying "I have this issue too, did you find a fix?"
