    any game other than animal crossing new horizons getting GOTY is so wildly divorced from reality that it defies explanation. it was a genuine cultural moment/point of convergence as the world was desperately searching for one (which i say having played it never).

        Hades will probably mop the floor at the game awards.

        Yeah but that game came out like 17 years ago? Wait, fuck.

        Just because it got big now doesn't really make it culturally important. Somehow people like to pretend it's not the 5th game in a series that didn't change drastically over the years or worse genuinely don't know. (my opinion ofc)

        I think this is where we define if GOTY is the game that best goes with the year or if its the best game of the year.

        I'd say trying to escape Hell over and over is on brand for this year.

        Doom Eternal getting a nod baffles me. It was a bad follow up. Jedi Fallen Order should have gotten that slot.

        As someone that has put in at least 50 hours into it, it has a lot of problems as a game. If you’re arguing for it as the cultural game of 2020 then it’s undeniable, but I think of GOTY as more of a “best” game category.

        guess it depends on how you qualify "Game of the Year"

        Yeah I couldn’t even consider that for me personally but if we’re talking cultural impact, yeah it’s way up there.
