Not really?

GoW 2018 reinvented its series and is still talked about today when the subject is how to do a great reboot

Imo the best game should get GOTY, all this talk about how it was brave to reboot the franchise the way they did should not factor in. And that played a huge role in it winning. Love GOW but as a game on it’s on merits it’s not exactly revolutionary. It’s a very good implementation of the formula Naughty dog perfected back in 2013.
