I always assumed the score versus GotY awards were driven by reviewing being a single person, while awards are driven by a committee.  I like reviews, but it is important to bear in mind that a review is a single person's opinion.  

Personally I will be surprised if Death receives any GotY awards.  

That's true, and i know that, but it proves my point that when reviewers can't represent correctly the value and the reception the game is gonna get..., then what's the point of having reviews from just one person in the first place?? What's the purpose of a review then??

And lol, Dreath Strading will be top contender for GOTY awards anyways. Despite all of this drama is still an 85/100 game among critics. It will receive more than 20 or 30 at least..., you'll see.

For me I don't read a bunch of reviews.  I tend to find a reviewer that has similar tastes as mine.  I think that is the key.  As an example, Eurogamer tends to align well with my gaming preferences.  While Sterling is out in left field.  

Maybe, I don't follow awards too closely.  I was just thinking the competition will be fierce with LM3, Sekiro, RE2, FE, Pokemon, Astral and LA.  I am sure there are others I am not thinking about.
