This might be the first year that Xbox gets anything nominated for GoTY thanks to just sheer volume of releases, but I doubt any of them win.

Xbox guys are going to attempt to make the argument that it outdoes Uncharted though, as ill-fated as the attempt would be.Damn am I the only one that thinks Indy looked good?
I'm glad that the game is 1st person, otherwise it'd just be another Tomb Raider and Uncharted clone, we don't need anymore of that. I'll be getting it on Steam
I think it looked alright, but I imagine PlayStation folks would compare it to Uncharted and that's not a favourable comparison at all. Plus, seeing how folks reacted to Avowed, I think a lot here really don't like first person for anything that isn't a shooter
I get it though, preferences are preferences.
Anyone saying it looks better than Uncharted is lying. TBH comparing it to Uncharted is unfair, even if that was almost 8 years ago
I knew it'll never be on Uncharteds level, I'm just gonna appreciate it for what it is.
This event explains why Phil Spencer is into hiding, the dude finally felt ashamed of his work.
Which one of their games are going to get nominated for GoTY? Please, tell me, I want to have it in writing.
Lmao, trust me, I'm not hyping them up. I just think one of these games will make it on those lists at the end of the year if not enough other games score well enough this year.

It's probably not feasible for MachineGames and/or Xbox to sink in as more money into Indy. Xbox has less consoles in the market and Indy isn't a hot IP as it used to be.
Wiki says 120 as of 2020, so probably around 130~ probably. Smaller than most triple A PlayStation studios.
But the real difference is just how much more outsourcing is being used by the bigger tentpole PlayStation titles
MobyGames Credits says 2.7k for GoW Ragnarok (1758 for GoW 2018).
Which also explains the slides about the current ballooning costs of some of the cross-gen/current gen games we've seen from the Insomniac leaks. But not every project can justify this level of investment.
Edit: If you don't want to compromise on scope and/or length of development, you've got to field an army of workers.
But they were the 2022 MetaCritic Publisher of the Year! An honor that nobody gave a shit about before or after 2022!
The only one that had a chance was Hellblade 2 but it turns out it's not even a full priced game and won't even get a disc version. It will just be sent to die as they don't seem to have any confidence in it.
Acording to Xbots Starfield would win GoTY 2022 and then GoTY 2023.
Yeah I thought too. Having a strong narrative got me interested but those puzzles threw me offDamn am I the only one that thinks Indy looked good?
