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.
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

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.

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
