Not to point out the obvious and rain on some parades, but winning GotY has just as much to do with competition as it does with quality of the game itself. Point being TLoU 2 released in 2020, and the competition was light. 2020 was one of the weakest years in recent memory, at least in my opinion.

2017 on the other hand was outstanding, one of the greatest. Mario Odyssey, Nier Auotamata, Breath of the Wild, Persona 5, Divinity Original Sin 2, Horizon Zero Dawn, Cuphead, Nioh,

Oh yeah, I remember that excuse on 2013 too, TLoU won record breaking awards numbers because there was no competition, when the most successful videogame ever, GTAV, released that same year...

Well I wasn't here in 2013, so I don't get what your comment has to do with me.  Additionally, if GTAV released the same year than there was in fact competition that year.  But really none of this changes the fact that competition plays a role in winning awards, and this year was weak all around.
