With the nomination phase of the 2019 Steam Awards complete, Valve is going to
reveal the nominees for one category per day over the next week, culminating
with the list of Game of the Year nominees one week from today. Community voting
will then begin on December 19th, and they will unveil the winners on New Year's
Eve.
This page
has today's list, which covers Outstanding Visual Style along with a video
offering a glimpse of said outstanding visuals. Here's the list of nominees in
this category:
These devs are the Willy Wonka of eye candy. Visual style
doesn't aspire to real-world graphical fidelity (though a noble goal in itself)…
it describes a distinctive look and feel that suffuses an entire game. This game
displays visual cohesion and expression that not only fit the game's world, but
make our world look paltry by comparison.
