Aren't there community tags for situations like these?
I think the problem is that they don't get awards even tho they are very good game and really amazing devs who love their games and playerbase. Last year read dead redemption won labour of love in the same category as drg was in 🤮
The Steam awards are a total joke. RDR, a game with zero content updates won labor of love. Starfield, a paint-by-number Bethesda RPG is most innovative. But it doesn't matter because the awards don't matter.
I believe Starfield at least was brigading to prove the point that the awards are silly at best at this point.
Did the job pretty well.
RDR is awesome, but yeah, the devs were probably crunched and were dying to finish it so they could rest lol.
Not even that. The suits at 2K publishing (and maybe on Rockstar's board of directors too tbh) just decided that it wasn't worth investing any development time in since it prints money less easily and more slowly than GTA online
RDR2 is an amazing games yes.
But it is not a game that deserves to get labour of love.
Devs don't determine when or what they work on, that's all up to management
Yeah steam awards were a joke but what does it have to do with a dwarf tag? Do they also want a dwarf category in steam awards?
Isn't Steam awards are voted by users? So if anything, should the users (or rather, troll voters) be blamed?
Certainly trolls deserve quite a bit of the blame. But Steam is also to blame for allowing people to vote on games they've never even played before, and allowing games that haven't been updated in over a year to be eligible for labor of love. When 5 games someone doesn't own are the options, it just becomes a contest of which game is best known.
It's why Pizza Pizza has a history of being voted as Toronto's best pizza chain despite selling cardboard with red paint on it as food
I mean by the nature of more popular games getting more votes, its just how this system will always play out.
petitions to get dwarf tag added so DRG can finally win an award
Yeah I didn't understand how RDR won that award. Weird.
It made about as much sense as Starfield winning the most innovative gameplay...
Awards are decided by number of votes
People are idiots
Do the math
I think RDR and Starfield winning were ops planned by their respective communities. Like, these games are clearly neither of these things, yet they won. It's seems intentional. Not on Valves part. I have no proof, of course. It's just baffling.
It's just baffling
How is it baffling? Gamers are "idiots" in the sense that memes are usually more important than useful communication. This post is exactly the same type of thing, a "dwarf" tag doesn't really help communicate anything useful; am I more likely to want a "dwarf" game, or more likely to want a specific genre of game?
Starfield and RDR won their respective categories because gamers like to meme about. It's the same reason useless Steam reviews get highly upvoted, gamers like to meme about.
I really do hate those goofy ass reviews.
300 hours
It’s okay I guess
Wow. So helpful in helping me decide if I want to spend my hard earned money on this game.
What's even worse is the reviews like "I'm gay" that gets a ton of "helpful" awards. They're easy to scroll past, but it's indicative of the unhelpful nature of a lot of gamers.
Not as bad as those asinine game guides that all say, "How to walk: press W lololol we're all so funny and goofy 🤪" stfu that was funny maybe once at most, now the whole community is flooded with that stupid shit.
Oh my god, yes I’ve seen those! I saw it on Dark Souls 2 community and thought it was funny because the in game messages other players leave are usually not helpful at all, so I didn’t really pay it much attention. Then I saw it in Death Stranding, Skyrim, Lunacid, and a few others.

Oh. One of the memes I guess. 😏
Also: who gives a fuck?
They ofcourse because it would put them at the top of some new to be category view and they think it will bring them more name and money
