GOTY is kinda boring this year cos we all know what's going to win.

Even the secondary categories are mostly predictable.

Honestly, I know Expedition 33 is most likely to win, but I would not be surprised if DK or MKW get the GOTY here on VGChartz.

Hopefully it's either DK or MKW, because they used art by actual human beings.

Those games are shams, glorifying soulless art theft that's gonna widen the wealth gap even further.

Not a brand new game, but at least I get to see someone else around here who's making sense for a change.
