Some great jokes in there:

  • FC24, a game with mixed reviews nominated for GOTY.
  • RDR2, a game the online mode of which got abandoned two years in because it wasn’t making as much money as GTA5 nominated for Labour of Love.
  • Starfield, a game which steals most of its gameplay from decade old Bethesda games nominated for Most Innovative Gameplay.

Idk what the steam community is smoking these days but it’s got to be good.

Well, when voting is rewarded without regard for the voters' knowledgeability or experience, it's bound to just devolve into a popularity contest.

They actually allowed users to skip voting for any and every category this year and still have it count for the badge, so I was hoping this year would be less dumb.

Oh yeah? I didn't even notice.

Are you disrespecting the masterpiece love is all around?

I thought of mentioning that too, but decided not to because I had never even heard of it. It looks like a shitty FMV dating sim, but for all I know it might have the greatest story ever written, so I'm giving it the benefit of the doubt.
