If you came across any other stand out performances this year (purely in games that released in the west this year), please post in this thread, so I can add them to the lists above.

Takaya Kuroda

Kiryu Kazama in Like a Dragon Gaiden the Man who erased his name.

HOLY SHIT THAT ENDING. If he doesn't win something for that then every award system should shut the fuck up and die.

I doubt anybody else would vote for them but my vote would probably go to somebody from Talos Principle II. I think the biggest candidates are:

Erin Fitzgerald as Athena/Alexandra Drennan (The Talos Principle II)

Peter Wingfield as Byron (The Talos Principle II)

Both support.

Both added, thanks guys.
