Yeah.

Disco Elysium, RE 2R and Sekiro it's okay. One 82 metacritic game  won GOTY only show how got is a biased choice. Only shows consoles war. It is not a game that sold a lot. It is not a critically rated game. So there is no point in receiving so many awards other than an attempt at correction, to rewrite history. In short, Goty Aggregator is not worth much, just validation for a minority.

Sekiro and Death Stranding have exactly the same number of 90+ scores on Metacritic, 56 each, with the latter having the largest number of perfect 100 scores by quite a gap. And Disco Elysium, to give another example, has 44 90+s and less 100s than Death Stranding as well.

I think the averages are giving you a fairly misleading impression here. What do you want certain outlets to do? "Oh well, another site didn't quite like the game we gave a 100 score to, so let's choose another game of the year?"

but don't have the same points. One is 90+ and other is 82. The misleading impression is goty aggreagator.
