Does Destiny really have any competition for GOTY?

It just won't happen, fighting games aren't on the level of story-quality or emotional quality or have those ONE of a kind moments in which you will remember for a long time, their just fighting games, they aren't doing anything different, fighting games are fighting games. The formula doesn't change for them, look at U2, Journey, The Last of Us, Portal 2, they are very different from their specific genres. And if it does get GOTY, the people who game it probably haven't played the rest of the games that's why I like Gamespot and IGNs method of choosing GOTY, all the votees play the GOTY contenders. 

Then why are people saying Destiny is going to get GOTY? It doesn't seem to have much to offer in the story department. Its just a FPS game in the same way Smash is just a fighting game (except Smash is much more fringe than Destiny is). Saying story and emotion are the deciding factor on GOTY seems a little...strange
