Is Death Stranding the GOTY? Most Perfect Scores, second most 95+ scores (Metacritic)

[DCBA]

In my eyes the following two factors are most relevant for a game to be considered as a GOTY by a gaming critic:

1. High review score of course (a masterpice rating (95%))
2. Scope (the game should be well known among reviewers (30 reviews at least)

With these restrictions applied I took a look at the GOTY candidates with the following result:
(ranked by the amount of perfect scores (in %))

Death Stranding (76 reviews) → MC: 84
Perfect Scores: 15 reviews → 20% (most perfect scores)
95%+: 24 reviews → 32%
