Well keep in mind the nominations are based on votes by Steam users so if a decent enough population of the Steam user base feels it haunts their dreams then it will be nominated. I can understand Dota 2 actually, there's a lot of strategy and metagame built up around it so yeah I can imagine some people do spend a lot of time obsessing over those aspects of it. I'm less clear on CS:GO though.doppelEben wrote:But I dont get why csgo & dota are on this list Oo the other games could make sense aswell @ haunting dreams; but csgo? and dota?
As for TF2 yeah I can see that for consoles, but keep in mind it's the Steam Awards so you're dealing with PC players. I strongly considered putting TF2 for the Labor of Love award (although I think I went with Thea in the end) because it's a PC game that still receives updates after a decade.
