I really struggled to find a GOTY nominee, and I even ended up going thru the SteamDB release calendar.
While there have been quite a lot of good games released this year, there wasn’t really any one game that stood out above the rest.
And weirdly I think that’s a good thing this year. I would much rather have 10 games that are so good that I can’t say any any one of them deserves GOTY over the other, than to have one clear winner and nine meh games.
(I ended up nominating Selaco btw)
I have, possibly a bit too much. Love it. But in my mind it doesn’t really deserve GOTY. For me that award represent more than just “how many hours of fun did I get out of this”.
