John, remember I called you out on a God of War thread. YOU AREN'T ALLOWED TO KEEP MAKING EVERY NEW GAME YOUR GAME OF THE YEAR! IT'S MY DAMN TURN! :( *Dies alone... on Mars*
Edit: Also, the game came out last year, so if anything, it would be 2017's Game of the Year, and God of War can still be this year's? Until Dragon Quest 11 next week; YOU CANNOT HAVE IT!

Lol. Indeed, but 'so far' was the context there but do feel free to take your turn you can have Divinity for 2017 and Ill take the DE for 2018. :D
Definitive edition is the full release of the game in my eyes on all platforms, I still see the final release of the PC version as a wrap on the early access. As well as all the QoL improvements and finishing the game VA and all, Sure, they are fully overhauling and rewriting Act 3, re wrote the menu and item descriptions, etc. It's now complete.
I only had one GotY so far this year and one GoAT since 2015. It's now time to revise and give Divinity it's special little place in my heart... probably until Red dead hahaha.
Hope DQ is your 2018 dude, I see a lot of excitment for that game. It keeps popping up in my YT feed.

It's for sure easy to be influenced by the hype surrounding a game when it comes out, which I don't think is a bad thing at all. I'd say that every year there are a handful of games that I play that I get so engrossed in that I feel like it's my favorite game ever at the time.
About your last post, where you stated that you like playing games that are ported well to console, I'm curious how you felt about the Witcher 3, given your avatar (I have a bad memory so I apologize if I've already been in this discussion xD). I actually played the game first on my OG PS4, and I only ever got maybe 10 hours into it before setting it aside. It wasn't until just last year that I bought it on a Steam sale and ended up playing through the majority of the game (never actually finished it, but I made it partway through "Act 3").
I think my issue was with the loading times. I think I was playing on the difficulty below Death March, and I found myself having to reload certain encounters several times to progress (the one where you need to defend one of the townsfolk to get the pass to cross the pontar was one such quest that comes to mind, as if you let the guy die you fail the quest, and that didn't sit well with me).
