Rate the GOTYs of the year
>>7294100272014 and 2020 both feel cringe.
>>729410180Is dragon age not that good? I've been meaning to play it for a while now, I just gotta finish the games I'm playing right now first
>>729410027if these are the "real" GOTY games then how come nearly every studio used to release "Game of the Year" editions for their games (that aren't on your list)?
>>729410404Nominated?
>>729410027Where's Madden
>>729410027I was going to write a little paragraph for each game but then my comment would get to long so just pretend that every single score is well-reasoned>San Andreas4/10>Resident Evil 49/10>Oblivion3/10>Bioshock7/10>GTA IV3/10>Uncharted 24/10>Red Dead Redemption7/10>Skyrim5/10>The Walking Dead6/10>GTA V5/10>DA: Inquisition2/10>Witcher 34/10>Overwatch (2016 version)8/10>Breath of the Wild6/10>God of War2/10>Sekiro9/10>The Last of Us part 21/10>It takes two7/10>Elden Ring8/10>Baldur's Gate 36/10>the list overallIt skews far too heavily towards open-world games that do nothing special with the occasional movie game thrown in. The judges for these awards are truly tasteless people.
>>729411748>>San Andreas>>4/10>>BioShock>>7/10LMAAAAO
>>729412085Yeah San Andreas isn't that good and I deducted points for niggers
>>729411748What’s a 10/10 game for you,anon?
>>729410367First one is great. DA 2 imo had a good story was a downgrade in evrything else. Inquisition just didnt hit for me for some reason
>>729410027>2012>The Walking DeadWere there really no better options for GOTY that year?
>>729412949should have been Yakuza 5
>>729412518Dark Souls 1Ghost TrickSengoku Rancemaaaaybe NiER but I remember being too annoyed by the weapon grind
>>729410027Resident Evil 4, Walking Dead, Last of Us 2. 3 games up there is zombieshit. Gaming is not a serious medium. There's no such thing as good zombie fiction unless it's campy b movie junk food. It's not and will never thematically be deep. Any story with zombieshit is handicapping itself and would be better removing the zombieshit.
>>729412949>Were there really no better options for GOTY that year?Kid Icarus Uprising would've been my pick, other choices includedGravity RushZero Escape: Virtue's Last RewardJourneyDishonoredXCOM Enemy Unknown
>>729414096You're almost as bad as OP, gotta play way more games. And harder ones too
>>729410367Inquisition is just OK, it's a guilty pleasure of mine and the game has its moments but is too bogged down by odd game design decisions to really be great. I'd still say it's worth a try but temper your expectations.
>>729414231I've finished over 1500 games.
>>729410027Man, I like DA:I but seeing it with a goty award under its belt is just strange. Was 2014 really that barren?
>>7294101802014 was the worst year I have ever seen for games and I've been playing games since the NES. I remember thinking that year wtf is going on why is this year so insanely shit there is no games
>>729414429>>729414438It was a bad year but they could've picked Bayonetta 2Or Dvinity OS1Or Shadow of MordorTalos Principle came out in 2014 as well but it was mid-December so it didn't qualify for any awards that year
Resident Evil 4 > Oblivion > GTA San Andreas > Witcher 3 > RDR1 > Skyrim > Uncharted 2 > Elden Ring > Zelda BOTW > Baldurs Gate 3 > Bioshock > Dying Light > GTA5 > GTA4 > Nu God of War > Sekiro > Dragon Age Inquisition > It Takes 2 > Last of Us 2 (would be easily last place by far were it not for overwatch being online slop) > Overwatch (online slop should not have won goty over any of the good single player games that year)
>>729414096Redpill me on abiotic factor
>>729414793Switch Elden Ring and BOTW and it's perfect
>>729414986I can accept that
>>729410027>GTA:SAA GTA with some actual side content>RE4Pretty good gameplay>OblivionConsole babby's first open world that wasn't some variant of a GTA clone cause only 300 people played Morrowind on xbox>BioshockAtmospheric, but I have shit tastes so I could easily swap it out with CoD4 cause lol>GTAIVgraphics, funny driving, vladistokov radio... but a little lacking>Uncharted 2People bought a PS3?>RDRNice change of pace, side content with meaning, pretty good overall>Skyrimpainfully generic, magic was underwhelming, but I guess an improvement overall>TWDnever played lol>GTA5Felt like they were unlearning back to 3 with lack of side content and property value that suggested there was suppose to be more>DAInever played lol>Witcher 3bland gameplay, dropped it early, gonna assume the writing carried cause somebody later modded the combat to be gwent lol>OWnever played lol>BotWA little simple, a little lacking, maybe a bit too different... but I enjoyed exploring so meh>GoWNever played lol>Sekirohate parry, wasn't Tenchu, would rather play Terminator: Resistance>TLoU2never played lol>ITTnever played>Elden Ringhated the open world, played through it once and then went back to play DS1 and 3 for like the 10th time>BG3Never played lolOverall 5/10 list, later half kinda shit but that surprises no one. Thankfully I'm not an actual reviewer.
>>729412949no, it even was /v/'s choice for goty lmao
baldurs gate 3 > tlou2>>>the rest is just family friendly shit
>>729410027>2005It was the wakeup call that no one answered.>2007The beginning of the end and 2008 and 2010 could not save it.>2011The point of no return.
