    It doesnt matter how big it is, it is a DLC. You need the main game to play it. Game of the year should be a whole, independent entity that can be played on its own.

    Mine was metaphor.
    It was a game that almost no one was talking about and it just blew everyone out of the water.

    It’s one of those perfect games to me.

Like some games only have 30 songs and like 5 of them are pretty good. For rebirth its almost all of them. And another thing is how many genres of music they put in the game. Its insane how they touched every genre. But hey you could like stellar blade soundtrack more. Its just opinions. And we know the real reason why ff7 rebirth won best music. BOW WOW WOW!

    The Silent Hill 2 remake actually made me break one of my long-standing rules of not having a remake or remaster as my GOTY because I like giving OG games, especially new IPs a chance to also show off the talent of their devs. It was a good 20 years streak but this year my GOTY is Silent Hill 2 just because the dev team really did a beautiful job at bringing back a classic game to a modern audience without losing any of the elements of what made the OG a classic. The tank controls may be gone, but it's still as terrifyingly beautiful in its own twisted ways as it was all those years ago. Ensuring that for me, I will continue to see that town in my restless dreams

    Well of course Sony is playing up the mid platformer that, somehow, beat three EPIC RPGs...
    Sounds an awful lot like a forced Nintendo Gotcha to me... especially when they won absolutely nothing themselves.
    Astrobot is very cute, very polished and very fun... it is not a GOTY contender... Utterly rigged.
    I mean it was literally just a longer Astro's playroom... what a joke.
    On the plus side... at least a DLC didn't win.
    Would happily have accepted any of the other 4.
    My favourite was Metaphor hands down (although Balatro would have been a giggle)

      This has nothing to do with the game awards love...

      RPGs aren't inherently worth more than other games just because they're bigger or more "epic". Astro Bot is excellent.

      This is not related to the Game Awards. This was voted by the Access community. I bet you haven't even tried the game...

      didn't play any of the games except the dlc but astro was deserving as much as the others a lot of work went into the game and people loved it. i'm glad er didn't win as its not a standalone gamr and the fact that the one guy who worked on balatro didn't even have the balls to go there himself he didn't deserve to win anything .

      Astrobot was just pure fun. My favourite game of all time is OG FF7, but I had more consistent fun with astrobot than rebirth. It was never dull and didn't outstay its welcome - left me wanting more rather than bored by the end of it, which isn't common enough in games these days, so many of which are bloated beyond belief.
