    Isn’t Steam awards are voted by users? So if anything, should the users (or rather, troll voters) be blamed?

      Certainly trolls deserve quite a bit of the blame. But Steam is also to blame for allowing people to vote on games they’ve never even played before, and allowing games that haven’t been updated in over a year to be eligible for labor of love. When 5 games someone doesn’t own are the options, it just becomes a contest of which game is best known.

        It’s why Pizza Pizza has a history of being voted as Toronto’s best pizza chain despite selling cardboard with red paint on it as food

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