Can No Mans Sky be game of the year?

I can't see it happening, maybe for some people, but I can't think of a game that used procedural generation being a contender for game of the year from multiple outlets/people. There's just too much of a RnG element which will make people's experiences wildly different and very much what you're prepared to put in will affect what you get out of it.

I love that element, the not knowing how my playthrough will go, and knowing that it will be different from the next guy feels special and I'm most deffinitely looking forward to it. Ultimately though tailored experiences are typically better, or more well received, plus it's having to go up against games like Uncharted.
