So in what objective standard would this game be the biggest of the year, sales, review, technical achievement or your individual taste?

Obviously my personal taste, which was the tongue in cheek usage of the term biggest. It will not reach the sales of Elden Ring which are mind-boggling great and review scores are flimsy. Even if people reference Metacritic or OpenCritic, this is far from objective, as it has a preference for western reviewers. Technical achievement is something even less objective and should be ignored, because we don't want to play tech demos.

To be frank, there does not exist any *objective* standard.

Meta and Open as flawed as they are is the closest we can get to objective together with how much gotys were won by a title.

And for all the perceived bias Nintendo games are japanese and receive good reviews and this title is western so it would be favored by it not against (while Elden Ring would be the opposite but still got great scores).

He said the BIGGEST ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE YEAR, not the biggest announcement of point and click. So it would be compared to all games and announcements of this year. So yes it would be modern standard as a whole.

Let me ask you a question: if you don't consider Monkey Island important, why do you have the second most posts in this thread after me, the thread starter? Wouldn't you just start your own thread about the game you consider the biggest announcement of the year?

I'm not prone to confuse my own opinion with facts so I wouldn't start a thread with such a claim even for Gran Turismo that is my favorite game. And I don't recall saying the game isn't important, just that it isn't near the biggest.

Also the reason why I would be the second person who post the most (didn't count, will trust on you) is that after my single post people replied to me so I just replied back. Why would I leave people talking alone?
