Hopefully PC bros will be able to buy this when it's released...

Out of what I have played this year, yes!

However, I still have to play and complete BG3 and Spider-man 2 and I'd also like to fit in Armored Core 6 to make a more well informed decision.

It is a fantastic game that deserves to be in the GOTY conversation though.

I really want FF16 to win, not only is it the GOTY but it would also piss off all the super obsessed haters like @ethomaz @Vertigo . It’s weird how emotionally invested people are in seeing this game be a massive failure.

But sadly I don’t think it will win, the non stop FUD around it due to it being a timed PS5 exclusive is working against it.

With that being said, I think BG3 is a shoe in to win. Universally praised unorthodox game like It Takes Two. And it deserves it, BG3 is my #2 favorite game after FF16.

Did you show the Darkness what Light can do?

Not a chance. Game is mid at best. No dungeons. No rpg mechanics. Worst quest design in a major rpg like ever. Braindead easy. Junk story and cardboard characters. After Bahamut game became a painful boring pos.

FF16 absolutely fucking sucks big time.

I don't think theirs anything really unorthodox about BG3. It's just a big budget CRPG. Its what a CRPG would look like if it had a Triple A budget.

Platinum is a pain in the ass though, all this virtual battles and using skills for numbers of times is kinda lame.

That’s part of what makes it unorthodox, as well as how much it resonates for people who’ve never been into these types of games. It’s my first game of its kind and I love it.

I think BG3 will win GOTY. Zelda TOTK will be a close 2nd.

FFXVI, however, should be a close #3.

i guess? I've played loads of crpgs. 9/10 crpgs are made by double A studios or indie studios. So they don't have the budget necessary.

I'm different when it comes to hyped games. If its a genre im not really into, i wont play it or touch it at all. Like Elden Ring. I hate souls games. Tried playing Dark Souls Remastered and Dark souls 3. Just too boring, way too combat focus. Elden Ring was praised too the moon. Still didn't touch it because i don't like those type of games. Same story with Hi Fi Rush. I'm not a hype beast
