Nominating Stalker 2 for Most Innovative Gameplay Award seems crazy to me. It’s a great game, but I definitely wouldn't call it innovative.
It has always been a "Which game has the bigger fan base" contest 🤷♂️
I don't think I ever agreed with the nominations or the the final winners, because they never make any sense other than through the hype and fan-base lens.
Occasionally good games get nominated for the correct categories (Terraria for Labor of Love) but it's very rare. I haven't even played any 2024 games but wanted the badge so I just nominated some off brand games that will never win.
I agree with this comment so much that my dumb ass tried to upvote it twice forgetting I already did
In the modern gaming industry, it's considered innovative to not be shit cuz your shareholders forced you to abandon all morals.
didnt they even ban elon? absolute winner move.
Came here to comment the same. I love the game but those mechanics are 17 years old.
