For all its polarizing coverage, Death Stranding has a good shot to win GOTY!



Around the Network

It can't be said that I especially care what games get what awards. My opinions stand on their own. Some of my personal favorites this year so far though include:

Death Stranding (sorry VGC!)
A Plague Tale: Innocence
Gato Roboto (who would've guessed?!)
Untitled Goose Game
Cadence of Hyrule
Return of the Obra Dinn
Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night
VA-11 Hall-A: Cyberpunk Bartender Action



@Hiku, im just unhappy with the fact that instead of going for something fresh they rehash old content. I dont deny it takes them hard work, but its time not used for something different.
Fyi if its about HD remasters in general, im more harsh and throw it in the lazy cashgrab department, and hope every remaster bombs

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

Death Stranding should also be up for best puzzle game and best strategy game. Getting those ziplines down with limited bandwith can be very mentally engaging.

I haven't played it so I don't fully get the context. However, I can read between the lines and... YOU STRAIGHT SAVAGE!



How is Disco Elysium not up for GotY?

That's kind of a narrow way to look at it.  Remasters are most often done by smaller teams, who probably wouldn't be able to make their own games anyway.  It can create revenue streams that allow developers to gamble more on experimental titles.  Contrary to what people may think, it actually can encourage developers to invest in new IPs. 

Before remakes became a popular thing, a developer who made a great game would only reap the benefit for one console generation.  With remasters and remakes, it allows the developer to profit off of it for a much longer time.  Similar to how great movies or albums can keep making money throughout their lives, a great game can now do the same.  This can push developers to make something that will truly shine and withstand the test of time.



This Show is very interesting, i watch it then :) For me:
Death Stranding = Best Story, Atmosphere and Soundtracks
And the Characters are fantastic!


But overall, the next year is 100 % stronger than 2019. Thanks The Last of Us 2, Persona 5 Royal, Ghost of Tsushima, Final Fantasy 7 Remake, Cyberpunk, Y7 ect.

Why is Death Stranding not nominated as Best Indie Game, Best Sports Game, Best Strategy Game, Best Fighting Game, Best Multiplayer Game, Best RPG and Best Family Game?
I call hax!

It reminds me the "Behing the laughter" episode of the Simpsons where they won the best trash metal grammy award for their "Simpsons Christmas Boogie" album



2018 won God of War, right ? Or which game ??
