Always fun when the discourse is just an excuse to grind an axe against games you hate.

I do find it really annoying that regardless of how good a game is in certain genres it will never be in contention for goty but a 3rd person action adventure game that is just really well made and doesn't do anything really to stand out will have a much better chance to be nominated

I can’t think of a single GotY bait game or even adjacent one.

Yeah, I think as far as games are concearned it's coincidental and nothing rings true. Alan Wake 2 didnt just release late to bag in on awards season to captialize on some recency bias lmao. It's just common to release a game in Q4.

How in any way is that Goty bait more than any other game...? GOTY bait is a very stupid and terminally online term.

I see were getting to that time of the year where its 20 articles about how every issue in gaming is actually TGA/Geoffs fault. Just like Halloween it seems to start earlier and earlier 💀
