Is this some kind of sick joke? Did anyone at the Golden Stick play through to the end or just play a bit of Act 1 and go "sure whatever".
How can a game win a storytelling award when the stories are not ... you know ... actually told? There are multiple companions with no endings whatsoever on multiple playthroughs.
Those awards are in the end all popularity contests. With enough hype and people who only played act 1 or writing fanfics about companions no one will dare to give the game a more realistic review or deny them awards because in that case the horde will descent upon them.
Just look at Eurogamer and what happened when they dared to not give a 5/5.
