To be fair, the only category where it was likely to get a nomination was Best RPG, and all 5 of the Best RPG nominations did review higher than Xenoblade Chronicles 2 except for Octopath, which it tied at 83 on metacritic. The artstyle change to a more anime looking aesthetic was controversial, so a Best Art Direction nomination was highly unlikely. Maybe it should have gotten a Soundtrack nomination, I'm not sure there as I haven't heard much of it's soundtrack. |
Other than RPG, it should definely have been nominated for best soundtrack.
My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.
