I still expect TLOU2 to get GOTY just cos there's not really a single opponent that gamners seem to be overwhelmingly rallying to.

I voted Doom Eternal, and I can see Ori and Animal Crossing getting a few votes, but even among Nintendo gamers AC is an acquired taste and both Doom and Ori don't attract the kind of loyalty voting that a big first party exclusive would.

Animal Crossing, while extremely popular to casuals and the most hardcore of Nintendo fans, isn't as appealing to the people would would visit a gaming website and vote in a poll, so I agree it's unlikely it will win this site unless the staff really skew it in that direction. I'm not on the staff this year so they are one Nintendo fanatic down from skewing the votes in Animal Crossing's favor.
