Shadows of Doubt is pretty damn good. I would say they deserve it out of all of them.

I hate the Steam Awards so much. It’s not really Steam’s fault, although they certainly could try to do something, anything to make it better.

Almost forgot to vote for it.

If they win, good on them.

Starfield being in this category over Hi-Fi Rush is crazy
Muny30
Nothing in Starfield is innovative, wtf?
Dead-HC-Taco
tbf i dont think many of these are ‘innovative’ great games but cant really see where they did anything wildly different
Da_Plague22
Wtf is it even there for.
Icy_Boss6053
How is starfield even in there😂
Grizzlyirl
having billions of loading screens is so innovative. we havent seen it since like 2000
Biggu5Dicku5
No chance in hell of that happening lol…

I played Remnant 2 and I don’t think it should be on there at all along with Starfield.
Hattix
Starfield seems to be winning only on not winning anything.
I play it, I enjoy it, I put time into it, but I don’t love it in the same way I did Oblivion or Fallout 3 or Skyrim.
geigerz
oh yes very innovative of them bringing 2010 gameplay on a different package to 2023
ahsusuwnsndnsbbweb
i feel like there’s dozens of games that should be here before any of these

i side eyed the hell out of them being in that category haha

Who tf nominated it
kriskris71
1. Who cares about what awards any game wins.
2. Just play games instead of having this hate boner for starfield, again who cares
Larry_The_Red
voting for it just because of this

Starfield is pretty innovative in the ways they gaslight their community in thinking it’s a good game.
GamingDragon27
You swear to god… what? You didn’t finish your sentence. I take it you’ve played Starfield and the other 4 games on this list thoroughly enough (5-10 hours) to accurately judge how innovative their gameplay might be? No? Just cashing in on the “Starfield bad. Reddit upvotes pls” circlejerk I see? In all seriousness, Starfield got nominated, that’s the issue people should have problems with because how are it and these random indie games getting nominated over GOTY contenders and guaranteed future classics. I’ve never even heard of any of these (other than Remnant, only by name), not even seen them on Steam’s charts or featured sections.

That game does not deserve to win anything.

Who cares if it does? It won’t have any effect on any of our lives.

YOMI is so good
Bardivan
shadows of doubt is a ground breaking game. it’s so good. you might not get many hours out of it. but for an early access inde game it’s mind blowing
michaelbelgium
I have the same frustration with Cities skylines 2, it’s fucking nominated for “Sit Back and Relax Award”
How can you sit back and relax with such a mediocre game, where the CEO says the game isn’t for you if you dont like the simulation part, where the devs only pursue 30 fps, where the game is worse than cities skylines 1
RandomGuy938
Wouldn’t be much different from Cyberpunk 2077 winning best ongoing game award lmao
Turnbob73
What the fuck is this lineup? Are steam award nominees determined by the community? Because that’s the only explanation for this shitty lineup, and I say that as a huge Shadows of Doubt fan.
DoughNotDoit
most innovative loading screen simulator

Shadows of doubt is my nominee. It has his problems but overall is very impressive

So does this count as the daily Starfield hate thread or?…

Awards are meaningless anyway
AndyBundy90
I mean the loading screens are innovative

Is there another single game that has every gameplay aspect that starfield has?
redFoxGoku2
I voted for them lol
I think the starfield outrage was so dramatic
BranTheLewd
I read this as infuriating gameplay and legit thought we finally getting negative awards ðŸ˜
Indifferent_Demon
Fuck Starfield.

What are any of those games doing in that category?
Not surprising though, Steam is the place where the highest rated games or weeb hentai games.
90% of y’all are some brain dead basement dwelling wierdos
redditiswokegarbage
How it’s nominated for anything just shows how pandering these awards are.
JamesMcEdwards
There is nothing Starfield does that hasn’t been done before.
Comfortable_Sun4362
About as innovative as a painful poop!
Paciorr
How is it even nominated wtf
Swolepapi15
Not even a starfield hater, I got a reasonable level of enjoyment out of the game. But it absolutely was not innovative in any manner.
rinmerrygo
How it even got nominated is beyond me.

None of them are particularly innovative
If contraband police wins I give up hahaha
