Every person on earth has a bias towards something. Especially towards art. Video games, movies, books, music etc can never get an award based 100% on objectivity. That wouldnt even make sense.

Agree but awards would be more fun is there was more diversity in the nominations. Not that I'm thinking the nominations of the last years were bad, they were pretty good imo 

Same here! GOTY awards go heavily towards RPGs, Action-Adventure, and Platformers. Eeeeeevery so often there will be a surprise nomination outside of those 3 categories, but that is what they heavily skew towards. Which is a damn shame considering how many genres there are in gaming.

It essentially is telling developers, "You need to make this specific kind of game to get awards attention."
