Probably. Huge portions of the video game "journalism" industry are women/trans/casuals/soibois. They love Nintendo because muh childhood yippee wahoo and don't play actual real video games like RE4R, Armored Core etc.
laziest sequel I have ever experienced, they just looked at a bunch of other games and frankensteined it all together and barely added new locations and just reused the old game map
Hm, but are not most game these days a ''Frankenstein's monster'' of reused ideas?
Eh, you are right. It's a mishmash of different ideas that are all good, but compleatly collide thematically. Their treatment of the original game in TotK is just shamefull.
Honestly while the game is fun the state of the master sword in both games puts it best: This ain't Zelda.
>barely added new locations and just reused the old game map
The whole reused map is remixed and all of it is changed, there are 150 shrines, 400 caves, a whole underground map thats as big as hyrule and sky a bunch of islands. You haven't played the game and it shows.
>There's nothing in the underground
Lol. Yes there is. There's quite a lot actually. I've spent several hours there, and found plenty of interesting stuff, and I've barely cleared any of the map.
Zelda games are automatic contenders, regardless of their actual quality. Really depends of what FotM normalfags attach themselves to the most by the end of the year. There's a lot that release right before awards go out and end up being ranked so highly because they're fresh in everyone's minds.
Pretty much, the game is BotW but 2x bigger and better.
There's not really anything else that can compete this year >memefield
People who actually think this are either retarded or retaded redditors
Absolutely. It would've been fun to see this game go up against Elden Ring but Nintendo pussied out last year. The only other release this year that can compete with it is Starfield and that's a complete shot in the dark at this point.
It will until Starfield comes out.
Probably. I'd say thus far Pizza Tower is the only competition. As said, will depend on Starfield not being a mess.
pizza tower is a meme game for zoomers
Pizza Tower was a neat game but I dunno if it has the staying power to remain in people's minds for another 7 months.

Everyone loved RE4R until they started their second playthrough and realized the game is a slot machine.
Yes but elden ring is still gotd
Too bad outer wilds is gotc
Probably. I doubt Geoff wants to deal with the arson.
yep
I really really hope not, it would herald the lowering of the bar
How so? The game is decent, not the second coming of christ, but it's fun. Don't worry, Goty will remain a shitshow regardless who wins.

the underground sucks, there's nothing there, it's just a place to grind zonite and get lost in the dark

The underground is lazy too, same topography as the overworld but inverted with no biome variety and a bunch of asset dropped statues
Oh dear, are we looking at a Sonic sycle diet edition? A lot of people were dissepointed with BotW after ten or so hours.
Even if this were true, that would just mean it exactly like Elden Ring's underground.
yoink
At the very least? Game of the decade.
Odyssey should not have that score
The duality of men
Odyssey was so good
Of course. It was easy to tell before the game even came out.
yes, the fix is already in
If Starfield isn't a poorly optimized buggy mess it will most likely win

I expect them to give it to Resident Evil 4. I also realize I haven't cared about GOTY since Bioshock.
Absolutely. It would've been fun to see this game go up against Elden Ring but Nintendo pussied out last year. The only other release this year that can compete with it is Starfield and that's a complete shot in the dark at this point.
For normalfags/casuals, obviously.
Armored Core will be mine though.

I'm not American either so again, where are you at?
Possibly, because Nintendo knows their target audience.
The last puzzle took me about two mins. I am not proud of this fact.
I think TotK is a solid 93/100, not a 97/100
As far as I know it isnt woke shit, so it already beats a vast majority of the competition right there and then.
So yeah, probably GotY.
