Do you even care about steam awards anymore
I'm like half-half ish. I try to nominate games I find matching to the respective categories, but I am also doing this for the badge, so for categories I don't really have examples for I'm mostly drawing from other people's recommendations and opinions. Such as VR. I can't really say if a game's VR is good or bad so my nomination isn't exactly a recommendation, but I don't wanna skip that either because badge. :/ I do try to at least give every category some thought though.

I guess I'll share mine as well. Tried to be serious but only one I had no good ideas was Soundtrack. Although I'm sure Hades would would have been great for that too.

I definitely thought it was a bit button-mashy in the beginning. That's because early on, a lot of optimal play is just "spam this one move." Eventually though, as you unlock new abilities and weapons, the game heavily rewards smart synergies and utilizing your entire moveset - it was only then that I started enjoying the game.
It's also really unconventional for the rogue genre to actually have an interesting story. In most rogues, dying is lame because you lose all the cool upgrades you earned throughout the run. In Hades, dying is a part of the narrative, so the frustration is severely mitigated.
Is it overhyped? Eh, maybe a little. But it is still a great game.

Best soundtrack is the only one I knew instantly what to put. All thanks to Vitality by Mttsies.

Here's mine. It was rather tricky due to one game per award and 2020 release date limitations, but I'm happy with my choices. Everything fits and has its well-deserved nomination, if I may say so myself.

I'm usually bad at these award nominations, since I rarely ever play newly released games (I wait for them to get a good discount before buying them). :c

I think a good percentage of people in general do that, patient gamers. I also selected Hades as my GOTY, the voice acting and writing alone were enough for me.

So. Steam awards 2020 are open for nominations. Given I game on a 10+ yrs old system and that I'm constatnly broke I don't really pay much attention to new releases. I do however care about the steam awards badge so I fill out the forms anyway. But since I have no idea what games even came out this year, nor have I played any of them and steam doesn't provide convinient list of everything released in 2020 (well if such a list exists it's not conviniently placed on awards nomination page) I tend to pick at random or try to get inspired by other people picks.
With that in mind I went here, to look for a discussion about nominations, but I haven't found one. So I'm making it myself!
Share links to YOUR NOMINATIONS
Here's mine
