I assert nothing though.
Not saying you did. I'm saying while 'innovative' might be subjective, it's hard to see how it actually could deserve the 'most innovative' title when practically nobody would agree to that claim. It's fairly obvious the vote had little to do with the actual game.
Even if they think it is, looking at todays online environment, i understand why it's not an open statement. I remember the game is well received on launch, then it slowly slip to mixed and negative a month or so later, i shaped my opinion based on this.
For comparison, No Man Sky won Innovative Award by GDC for the launch version.
I don't really take award seriously, less so with Steam Award. Watching people react to it is still funny though, ngl.
