    … Homie, every single year I look forward to the games I had a ton of fun with and emotionally connected with get the recognition they deserve so the people who worked so hard on it get a little more than just a paycheck and a high five.

    I’m sorry you’re so jaded and scarred by something that you can’t understand what it means to pour your heart into a project and have one of the biggest stages for that field of work hail it as one of the best pieces of work for the year. Steam awards are directly voted on by us and it’s made clear by the dogshit picks everyone made as a ‘joke’. The award shows themselves have to filter out joke votes for that exact reason or it’s just not fun to watch.

      If you’re not clearly better enough at the category to beat the meme, it’s because you don’t deserve the recognition you’re complaining about.

      Meme votes are a product of not having anything worth actually voting for.

        It must be nice wiping your shit covered shoes on someone’s couch and telling them it’s not that deep.

          You’re making a lot of worst-possible-assumptions about my character based on a throwaway comment on how fake awards aren’t that important. Go outside.
