The Steam Awards 2017 Discussion

Somebody else got the problem that he/she can't nominate something for "Defies Description" ?

Still cant nominate a game for the "Defies Description" award actually - keeps telling me to select a game for it. O____o

Other than that, no games that are likely to get an award aside from maybe Titan Quest (Labour of Love).

Edit: appears to have been fixed now

So the steam awards are out, cool!

Oh, their on now?

Not sure what frightens me the most: the fact that this is being sold on steam or the fact that people liked it xD

Nothing seems worth nominating for me.

These categories are so annoying, cant they make them more self explanatory?

I am surprised that Valve did this for the second time.

1. Many people will write fake/ not valuable reviews
2. Many people will just choose random games to nominate.
3. Many people can also give disawards like. Disaward: The worst Gaming company in human history.

Maybe there are more points

moms spaghetti is definetly pixelpuzzles ultimate.
