Voting for GOTY was later than the other awards.Kind of surprised to see Disco nominated for Ultimate Game of the Year but not for PC Game of the Year. In fact the biggest award is literally all it was nominated for.

god people on this site will stop at nothing to to undercut days gone being looked at in any possible postitive way, its sad and pathetic at this pointThe nominee list kinda explains a lot. The Storytelling category, only like three-four of those were widely played and Days Gone probably the most, so in a public vote it easily won.
With the Playstation list, same thing. The big choices are pretty much Dreams and Days Gone, so it went to Days Gone.
Yea I bet most people just assume its "generic biker guy and he kills zombies and that's it"I imagine almost all of the people complaining about the award didn't even play the game. The story was good, and I actually can't think of any other game that I played at least that was better.
lol, I copied the list off another website because for some strange reason, gamesradar doesn't have a list to the nominees.I love Medium Molecule, they're right next to The Collective. Just love em.
Thing is, even if the missions were the best the series has ever seen, that Casino alone invalidates the choice on its own. It's the worst gambling we've seen so far outside of maybe NBA 2K20, and that's saying something. The whole thing is super fucked up.All y'all complaining about GTA, you realize the update was more than just a casino, right? It brought new missions and stuff for the first time in a while.
Mind you, I'm not saying it necessarily deserves the award, but there's more to it than the kneejerk gambling impression.
How is possible for Smash to win the best Nintendo game award and then not be nominated for the Ultimate Game of the Year Award... when Fire Emblem Three Houses is?!
That doesn't make any sense?!
LMFAO.....epic best studio....LMFAO.
also, no sekiro anywher ein sight? gtfo
Brexit shows thatBest Storytelling is proof that we Brits are really not good at voting. Best Visual Design too actually (don't get me wrong DMC5 is a good time but outside of facial animations, I wouldn't have had its visuals as best)
