No, GOTY is reserved for normie-core games, the kind of games people who dont even play games know via osmosis. DD is not and should not aim for that, it is a niche with a dedicated audience, its definately not for everyone and people propping it up as the second coming are raising it to fail.
There's that Team Ninja game... Ronin something, could be good.

No way a Nioh-paste will win GotY
it's made for people who like them, and that's it.

do we expect it to be good? Have yet to try it but it seems WonLong wasn't very well received.

Wo Long was honestly not great, but I liked SoP.
I am hoping they care more about this than the former. I think they just went low effort for a quick Wuxia cash in

I hope so, but I think they're spreading themselves too thin, they're working on Wo Long, this Ronin game, Nioh 3 and Ninja Gaiden 4.
Dunno about gotys since journos might still get filtered by the Itsunokino, but it sure does look like a great game and that's what matters to me.
I showed it to some kinda normie friends and they asked me "why don't more companies copy this kind of gameplay (pawns, monster climbing)" and I really couldn't answer that, it's baffling.
New players wont like DD2 because theyll expect another Fromslop clone and they wont find it here.
Old players wont like DD2 because it doesnt seem to add enough new stuff and still manages to look unpolished
I hope Im wrong and Itsuno delivers but Im not optimistic from what Ive seen
there is no way it is going to beat this. ib4 anon says that nobody has played this yet when there is literally a demo where it is as good as it looks.
It’s just an action RPG with loot systems. These games are the same medium as devil may cry and god of war, but shitters can’t seem to comprehend it. These games all utilize a dodge button, but normies like to pretend that’s not the case
My personal game of the year? Maybe
"Game of the year" as decided by various industry hangers on? No shot, those things are filled with recency bias and DD2 comes out early in the year.
>Old players will hate it because it doesn't add anything new
I've been playing since the release of the original DD, and all I've wanted is a more polished game with more vocations
Naaah unfortunately capcom dropped the ball, this looks like a remake of the first game, which was ultimately a tech demo they couldn’t let go of. DD is an awesome game but dd2 just doesn’t look like a sequel/next gen game, especially at 70$
Not with Paper Mario The Thousand Year Door set to release next year.
This is Nintendo’s new champion, a friggen Paper Mario game? ROFL
It's a solid contender for sure, but there's Elden Cringe's DLC coming up...
dont think they let a DLC win tho
no, and i hope it doesn't win either
t. rue dragon's dogma fan
No other games coming out next year
>Japanese game
>Not by From Software or Nintendo
Unlikely
All its potential competition so far is being pushed to 2025, so yeah.
Unless Capcom has something more important to push in that timeframe, yeah probably
It was probably going to be my GOTY but since nothing else is coming out it'll be everyone else's too.

It's such a niche title. No.
No. It's not the kind of thing that gets fellated by the press. It will be the best game of the year though.
Fat chance. Hope it does though. Would continue the medieval fantasyslop trend.
Pray that it doesn't come out in the shadow (heh) of the erdtree
No,AC6 didnt even get nominated and it got way more attention
what are you talking about, Armored Core 6 was nominated for a couple of categories and even won one (Best Action Game)
It didnt get nominated for goty
This year had a lot of competition, what is even coming out in 2024?
>Dragon's Dogma 2
>Black Myth: Wukong
>Space Marine 2
>Like a Dragon 8
help me fill the list, I bet there are some more

FF7 rebirth
Granblue Relink
Persona 3 RE
Not like they are goty material, but thats DD2 competition in that timeframe
Space marine 2 looks like boring trash to me
Well you're gay.
Gear of War 2 was sick.
Look at the gameplay trailer,that shit looks janky and slow af with a lot of voice lines just being thrown around all the time
Yeah man, incense burner man is so rad!
No, not really
Doubt it, games that release first quarter of the year usually don't have the staying power to win a GOTY

>Waifu Simulator II
Yes, if simply because Capcom fans are thirsty buttholes that instantly love anything that Capcom shits out.
Elden Ring 2 is going to take a big fat sloppy shit all over this
people are allowed to like more than one game

New classes seem underwhelming, I dont know what you want me to say
we haven't even seen all of them and they look awesome
I'd prefer you don't say anything.
They've only really shown one new "class", so what do you mean when you say classes?
Two, this and mystic kni...I mean spear
FRICK, yeah, there's 2, I was only thinking of Trickster for some reason.
It has furry ladies with big boobs and giant bosses.
I'm already sold.
>Old players wont like DD2 because it doesnt seem to add enough new stuff and still manages to look unpolished
>not enough new stuff
All praise to the time traveling anon.
homosexual
It's going to lost to Shadow of the Erdtree, a fricking DLC lol
Reassure me that it will run on Steamdeck. I'm scared fellow poorgay bros
Look up RE4 Remake SteamDeck performance, imagine it will likely run about twice as worse, there, that's the Steamdeck performance you can expect.
I dont give a shit about graphics. Ill turn them down to get a stable framerate
there is no way it is going to beat this. ib4 anon says that nobody has played this yet when there is literally a demo where it is as good as it looks.
I hate souls-likes. Same fricking game every single time. Its the new rogue-like

>recency bias
Elden Ring came out in fricking February
This and FF7 Rebirth are literally the only noteworthy AAA game in 2024.
>rehash
>noteworthy
Most fanboys are mad exactly because its not a rehash of the PSX game
Only if you can make the furry girls your beloved otherwise its going to be shit.
The only reason it has a chance is because it has no competition this year
If it was the last 4 years it wouldn't even be nominated

It's GOTY to me and that's what matters.
No, but it doesn't matter.
Against FF7? No way.
Capcom doesn't care enough to buy awards.
Nah, Rebirth is a lock for all categories that DD might compete in.
WAY too much gameplay and sincere cheesiness to win GOTY.
