Game of the Year - Worthy nominations for the most part but can we seriously not think of a game worth being there more than the 20th version of Resident Evil 4? That is such a weak nomination Imo. Hell not a single indie in the GOTY list, could have had Cocoon or Sea of Stars up there easily, I would have personally put Hi-Fi Rush up there and it also has a lot of subcategory nominations too. Anyway, I thought it would be a battle between Tears of the Kingdom and Baldur's Gate 3 but Alan Wake 2 winning Golden Joystick's Critics GOTY has me doubting that now.

Yeah, Alan Wake 2 winning Critic's Choice at the Golden Joysticks is definitely a pretty good indicator of what the critics might vote for here on Keighley's Awards show. The only question now is how will the users vote? Keighley doesn't weight the user vote very highly at all for the main awards, 9:1 ratio in favor of the critics, instead opting to have a separate user vote only award each year, but if the critic vote is very close on GOTY, there is a small chance that the 10% weighting of the User Vote could sway the overall GOTY winner away from Alan Wake 2.
