Lazy fallout/Skyrim reskin that modders will fix over the next 8 years if they’re interested. The only part of this game that was good and new was the shipbuilding, the combat is fun too but to call this the culmination of a 25 year dream is depressing to think about, it’s just fallout if a space mini-game/ fast travel system.
It’s $70 for loading screen and walk around fallout on 500 different planets mod
I think in any other year, Starfield might’ve gotten a nod, but this year, there were too many amazing games for one that was as aggressively safe as Starfield seems to have been. It didn’t really do anything new in a year where a lot of devs have been taking risks and hitting it out of the park.
I've played all of these minus Zelda. While Spider-Man is my personal game of the year, I voted and say Baulders Gate deserves this. That game is insane and it's a massive achievement for RPGs. Also, Im not sure how I feel about RE4 being allowed to be nominated for game of the year when technically it's an old game. Nothing wrong with the game but I feel like maybe for GOTY category they limit it to games that not only released this year, but are but remakes of older games. What are everyone's thoughts on that?
I think Remakes are New games if they are made to the Level that RE4 is. But i honestly can Not tell you where id mark a line between them or if there even is One. You could argue that every artistic work is already a new version of already existing work, but videogames are unique in the case of how you can litteraly reuse files
Technically and realistically is not an old game. It's a remake not a remaster, the only thing similar with the old one is the story. Graphics, audio, gameplay are all new. In my opinion remakes should be able to run for goty. (remasters are different though)
Baldur's Gate 3 is for me and should be game of the year. No one was expecting it to be as great as it is, received hate from some Devs saying it's unreasonable to make such a good game and has ton of replayability
