I mean, there's really only 2 candidates if we're being honest. It'll probably be the most even split in recent years between those two though, at least 30 % for both.
But realistically I expect it to be Baldur's Gate, it might be a little more niche than TotK perhaps, but TotK being an iterative sequel to a game that already took home a zillion GOTY awards will work against it.

Also RE4 will definitely take home more awards than some of those on the poll, remake or not. Could end up 3rd or 4th in the ranking.

Looks like I was on point with RE4 (it's currently 4th in the tally) and about BG3 winning, but it definitely wasn't as close as I expected. I hadn't exactly expected BG3 to dominate Reader's Choice awards like it has since it seemed like a game less people had played but in the end it ended up being one of the best sellers of the year so that was definitely a miscalculation.
