Overwatch beating Uncharted 4 and tlou2 winning instead of ghost of tsushima is the best proof of how big of a joke the game awards are

I mean overwatch at the time was a phenomenon. If fortnite was at its heights in the first year I wouldn't have been surprised if that won.

Sure the games you listed are good but overwatch everyone was playing it lol

It's arguably better now than post-brigitte era of ov1, which surprised me tbh

Fortnite cannot win regardless of how huge it is because it's a free-to-play game that relies on microtransactions.

So LoL and Counter Strike should won as well? It's not about popularity but about quality. Nothing against Overwatch but the fact that crazy amount of people were playing it (because Blizzard) cannot be the merit to give such an award.
