Somehow, some way, RDR2 was a finalist for Steam's 'Labor of Love' award. I was shocked.
For anyone unaware, the Labor of Love award is for games that "came out a while back, but keep getting better through updates." (ie No Man's Sky, Cyberpunk, etc)
How many times has Stardew won that award, and have they put rules in place to keep it from winning again for 1.6 next year?
Because it means other games don't get recognized. I love Stardew, it's probably my favorite game ever and I've bought it for three different platforms, but having it win multiple years feels questionable.
Users vote for it
If the users think it deserves it then it wins
Why would they do that? Lol
