This year we've ended up with not one, but two categories with tied votes for first place! So we're taking a page out of the Academy's book and in the spirit of celebrating the amazing work of 2023, presenting the award to both winners.
Congratulations to all the nominees and winners. We'll see you all again in December, after what I'm sure will be another exciting year for Mass Effect mods!

A moderator has closed this comment topic for the time beingSo either I pick some random mod in most categories (since I haven't tried the vast majority of them), I install all of the mods and try to power through all 3 games ASAP to give a semi-honest opinion, or I just don't vote at all?
A big thank you for everyone who nominated this, and those who voted on it already. :)
For anyone who have not yet voted, please vote for one of the other options instead, in case this is still found on the forms.
Overall, nice selection. In many sections it's pretty tough to choose just one!
orikon mostly releases stuff for OT which no one really mods anymore. it's not a conspiracy, it's just visibility.
