let's be real, he's gonna announce it in passing in between best n-gage game and best esports event caterer.Hopefully Geoff Keighley awards the winner on stage with some fanfare
I mean, this is the award for which the result is already known (so it's less of an exciting award to present), and it wasn't in the plans for the longest time I think (might have been a reaction to the GOTY backlash). It's very likely this is relegated to an inconspicuous spot in the show.let's be real, he's gonna announce it in passing in between best n-gage game and best esports event caterer.
i think he will properly announce it, but it won't be a big deal or get a separate announcer.I mean, this is the award for which the result is already known (so it's less of an exciting award to present), and it wasn't in the plans for the longest time I think (might have been a reaction to the GOTY backlash).

Damn, the shade
I've seen it consistently place high on quite a few lists, just never managed to get that #1This is the first GOTY FETH has won this year, btw. No other is mentioned on GOTYpicks. I wonder why it wins so few awards, being so highly rated and evidently well-loved by the gaming community.
It's funny how Three Houses won the Player's Voice but only got nominated for Best Strategy game.
Man!
There's Edelgard, doing what she does best: nothing wrong.So happy to see Fire Emblem won. Honourable mention for the runner ups, Smash and Star Wars.
Now the hegemony of crests can finally end.
i voted for yoshi for family game. that was probably a wasted vote :/Great! I actually signed up to vote for FE since I truly believed it deserved a nomination for GOTY. I also voted for Smash to win GOTY and Ring Fit Adventure for Family Game (sorry, Mario Maker 2) since it deserves love too.

Yoshi deserves love ! Such a good & cute game.i voted for yoshi for family game. that was probably a wasted vote :/
smash at least has best fighting game on lockMy vote is probably wasted too since Smash will probably win as a makeup for it losing GOTY.
and perfect for playing with younger kids. both the gameplay and the craft aesthetics really appeal to them.
I mean didn't they say they'd be announcing this award's winner on the show? I mean granted due to how it was conducted we know the winner already, but still

...
right?
it'd be messed up if it loses that category.
Sometimes they literally just do a "while the ads were running, we gave out awards to the following" and then rush through the lists unceremoniously.I mean didn't they say they'd be announcing this award's winner on the show?

My wife and roommate are both playing through XB2 right now and gushing over the soundtrack.Xenoblade Chronicles 2 not being nominated for music was some high key BS. Almost as bad as Smash not getting a music nomination despite it being a love letter to the industry with great original tones too.
I've seen some KH3 fans rally on this game too for some reason. So I guess it's more than just a single fanbase (just like many nintendo fans had both on previous days, then chose to back FE on the final day).
Regular categories has the user vote counting for 10% of the total.How much does the user vote for game of year nominee help the game?
Not talking about players voice vote
it's a terrible burden to be completely right
