Yeah there's a very short list of candidates when you consider how narrow of a focus GOTY candidates usually are. Historically it's only been Action-Adventure or RPGs. The only exception up to this point has been Overwatch. At least with TGA.
There are games that I feel have been more than deserving to be considered over the years but because they're in genres that aren't considered GOTY worthy (like Strategy games) or are too small in scale to be considered GOTY (like Unicorn Overlord) makes me immediately think they don't have a chance.
I personally would vote for Helldivers 2 or Unicorn Overlord. By far the best games I've played this year. But I am rooting for the likes of Astro Bot or S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2
