RDR2 beating DRG and DOTA 2 for Labor of Love is a fucking joke. Even RUST and APEX still get regular updates.

Outstanding visual style for Atomic Heart?! Are you shitting me? Only unique visuals in that is the faceless sex bots and it's a terrible game overall. Wholly undeserved.

Most Innovative Gameplay for STARFIELD?! OF ALL GAMES?! Yikes. Just.. fucking yikes.

I had a similar reaction on these titles...honestly I felt that the results were rigged. Is it just me?

[–] [email protected] 16 points 10 months ago (3 children)

Probably just the fact that it's a popularity contest. Doubt it's rigged, it's just poorly moderated and fabricated.

Thanks, makes much more sense. Too bad that some great titles lost just because they were not so popular. To be fairer Steam should add some rules like: of you didn't play the game, you cannot vote it...
