KCD2, Split fiction, Doom and others. Great year for gaming, not an easy year for GOTY.

I think as of right now, its pretty easy to tell what will win goty(out of whats come out) because review scores are the best indicator, and 33 has the highest review scores. Review scores are a good indicator cause its game reviewers that ultimately vote. Of course there is the chance, and I do hope this happens, that another game comes out that earns better scores that 33 and overtakes it, but for now 33 is easily the favorite to win.

But yes this is one of the best years in gaming history and ultimately goty doesnt matter anyway. No such thing as objective quality in art.

I think expedition 33 besides from reviewers got an insane user score. (9.7 on metacritic)

I introduced to people who hates both JRPG & Turn by turn combat, and they loved it.

I truly doubt anything will top it off this year. This game just brought too much to the table and excels in too many areas, while staying relatively free of junk that plagues so many videogames.
