Starfield for most innovative gameplsy? Am I missing something or do people on Steam ride that Bethesda cock hard?
At the time I'm writing this, recent reviews reached mostly negative (29%), and all-time reviews are mixed (64%). Which is honestly a lot more than it deserves, but I would hardly call that "riding Bethesda's cock".
It's probably just a matter of big games getting more votes, because of name recognition. This is just a popularity contest, after all.
Honestly wouldn't be surprised if most people chose it as a joke.
Best guess is people voted it because they didn't know any of the other games and didn't bother to check.
I just came here to ask the same question. It's not innovative one bit, it's a clone of No Man's Sky, and a shitty one at that.
They copied shouts from Skyrim, except worse, that's how un-innovative it was.
Wow, didn't know that one. At this point I am convinced Todd will count this game as success. Earned money and they didn't have to try.
The steam awards were never anything but a contest about which game is the most known. I really dislike them due to that, but at least one title (BG3 deserved it this year)
Yeah that's pretty awful
