Well tbf as well, innovative is as subjective as game of the year, what seems to be innovative to some might not be one for another. Itās hard to define āinnovationā because itās simply a process of putting in change on an established thing. Try google āinnovative product of (year)ā and you might see a tons of āisnāt it just x but yā product.
In my case i havenāt played Starfield nor Baldurās Gate 3 so i wouldnāt know whether they deserve the award or not, if people think it does, hey, more power to them. Steam Award is a popularity contest voted by people anyway, taking it seriously is missing the point.

I donāt think Iāve actually heard a single person unironically assert Starfield is āinnovativeāā¦
Not saying you did. Iām saying while āinnovativeā might be subjective, itās hard to see how it actually could deserve the āmost innovativeā title when practically nobody would agree to that claim. Itās fairly obvious the vote had little to do with the actual game.
