Not what I meant unfortunately. One catagory doesn't fulfill an entire half of the "gaming" market. For example, classicalized RPGs fall under the story department, all of them. And there are literally thousands of them. Now that games are also coming up with new styles of story games, like Life is strange, stanley parable, Hard Rain, etcetra. The category has blossomed into it's own side. This side is too large to just be thrown in with normal awards anymore, as it is harmful to both sides, gameplay and story. And reduces profits and knowledge (advertising) for them a lot more than anyone wants to think about. So your dislike of it's showing up at all is warranted, but also brings to light the major issue. Too many games, not enough forethought.
