Probably just the fact that it's a popularity contest. Doubt it's rigged, it's just poorly moderated and fabricated.

But why would RDR2 Fans give it the Labor of Love award with Rockstar that abandoned it years ago to focus on selling more Microtransaction in GTA-Online

I honestly think it's mostly that the people who voted aren't too bright.

See list of games. Pick favorite game. Category? What category?

Thanks, makes much more sense. Too bad that some great titles lost just because they were not so popular. To be fairer Steam should add some rules like: of you didn't play the game, you cannot vote it...
