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 ๐Ÿคฎ

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?

I mean by the nature of more popular games getting more votes, its just how this system will always play out.
