Did RDR2 get an update that freshens the game up? I thought Labor of Love was for things like Terraria where the devs keep updating the game over time. I would think that NMS of all titles would be more deserving, unless they have a rags-to-riches sort of award

Cyberpunk wins something similar in TGA and while it's somewhat controversial, it still makes sense. RDR2 is just plain incomprehensible.

Yeah it makes no sense that Cyberpunk wasn’t even a finalist for this award. They should’ve won for the comeback they’ve made after their disastrous launch. RDR2 is a bizarre choice.
