Well, I've only been watching a playthrough of it instead of playing it myself, so I can't get a super good impression of how good the gameplay is, but the storytelling, music, graphics, art design, and actor performances are all top notch, and the gameplay seems good watching it at least. I honestly think it might deserve the GOTY win this year, though it's hard to say if Baldur's Gate 3 deserves it more or not, since we Xbox peeps are still waiting to play it. I definitely don't think that TotK or Res 4 Remake deserves the win, TotK feels too samey compared to BotW, while Res 4 Remake is a remake, only brand new games deserve GOTY imo. |
Res 4 Remake doesn't even deserve a nomination, Lol.
But I honestly agree, I think TotK is awesome but there are a lot more games deserving of GOTY than it, I felt TotK was a very safe sequel, exactly the same art-style, very similar overland with a few village changes, I thought the sky islands were a bit meh and undercooked and I hated the underground, especially when I realised it was just the overland flipped upside down and navigating it was not fun at all, I don't find fun in wondering around in pitch black darkness having to constantly throw lights, avoid the dark smudge stuff and when I hit a large mountain having to spend ages trying to find a way around it instead of climbing over it, Lol. The new mechanics were really awesome though (when they weren't tanking my framerate) and I still loved the art-style, I very much enjoy the overland design and the world, I love Zelda as an IP, I liked the story, but it felt a bit like an Ubisoft iterative sequel than a true leap forward.
