TOTK is losing the GOTY race to BG3 and Cyberpunk 2077

The people have spoken: Original and good games will be rewarded with the awards, there is no room for measly "half-based" DLC/Expansions turned into a "sequel" in this industry.

        I have around 200 hours in TOTK and honestly there's just so many things that annoy the shit out of me as far as your toolset goes
        There's a ton of unique mechanical setpieces in shrines/environment you cannot obtain as zonai parts. This includes some really cool stuff like electric propellers that could add a new layer to building. 8 piece limit on autobuild save is just pathetic. The fact all your constructs despawn if you take few steps away makes it an absolute pain to actually ride around the map in any cool shit you can design. 95% of your builds are useless for combat, the rest are typically freezers or just laser barrages.
        At some point i just started doing hoverbikes because i was burnt the frick out. The fact mecha ended being supremely underwhelming is one final insult.

      ???? no fricking way. I don't fricking believe you at all. if this were true, I'd literally download BG3 right now.

      my problem with TOTK and BOTW was that it felt like it had all these "complex" systems but the game never actually expects or demands you to use them in any creative or challenging way. There's no design aspect around them. It just exists there as contexual fluff to look cool and make the world feel "dynamic" I was mega depressed when I realized I could barely use any of this shit consistently in any frequent or impactful way. Like I remember fire burning and getting a gust of wind...but not only did it last so shortly, but it also didn't even let me do anything, go anywhere, or enhance any aspect of my character.

      I DONT fricking believe you at all. And MAN the dialogue in BG3 genuinely looks SO ass. But if you're being honest and sincere then WTF how have I missed BG3 this entire year with nobody talking about this shit? All I heard was stupid "kick somebody off a cliff lmao!!!" or "bust open a locked door without a key!" But non of this shit means anything out of context, they could end up being just as contexual and mundane as TOTK/BOTW shit.

          you to pick most items from the environment and place them whenever you want, or throw them into enemies

          sounds about as useless as most interactions in TOTK/BOTW. Infact I'm pretty sure you can do the exact same thing in those games.

          >>or throw enemies if you're strong enough, magma pit nearby? instakill them. sorcerer is about to cast aoe? throw enemies into other enemies to make them fall prone right before they get nuked

          hmmm interesting maybe, depending on how flow of combat feels.

          are insane shortcuts in the world, such as jumping down into underdark from spider lair, but you need a spell of featherfall or you will die from sheer height

          ooooh wait this actually sounds really cool and interesting. wait a minute...is this game actually good? no way...

          You're SO close to selling me on this game it's unbelievable. This is the first time I've actually seen somebody elaborate on the strengths of this game with compelling references and examples.

          My biggest qualm tho, is the cutscenes and dialogue...a game can REALLY kill itself for me if the dialogue is droning and obnoxious. Is there atleast interesting things that can be done on that front? I always liked the idea people purported about RPGs regarding debating over philosophies and trying to understand characters better through dialogue, but the most popularly sited examples of this like New Vegas, didn't grasp me remotely.

          I REALLY don't like the dialogue of BG3 based on what I've seen, but is there anything that saves it?

          Totk lets you move enemies around too with shit you build, half of "le epic videos" are people using catapaults or chain stunning some stupid fat goblin into a wall.
          >or use a telekinesis spell and become an environmental god, see that huge chest? throw it into enemy and splat him across the ground
          Totk also just materializes and splatters people with huge objects.

          >there are insane shortcuts in the world, such as jumping down into underdark from spider lair, but you need a spell of featherfall or you will die from sheer height
          The entire game in Totk is built around skydiving and cheesing travel to get around
          >jumping in general enables all sorts of creative traversal, especially combined with the ability to create towers from items, all of it is supported by the game
          Have you played Totk at all?
          of spells can bend the rules, such as granting you flight, teleport, etc
          Zonai bullshit opens up way more creative abuse than 5e spells. Teleporting is unique to BG3 in fairness.

            nta, but believe it or not. The word "shortcut" means something. Which can NEVER mean anything in world...that is an open world. Also, this will be a bit of a bolder take, but I'd argue traversal COMPLETELY loses its meaning in an open world game aswell, since it can't be deliberately designed to actually demand any navigation since by definition, an open world game needs to let you go anywhere at almost any time, and that means fundamentally you cannot get lost or not know where to go, or how to get there, especially in a game like TOTK/BOTW that gives such convenient braindead control over how many places you can traverse.

              That's completely wrong in the case of BotW/TotK where Nintendo gamified the concept of overworld navigation. Making your way through Hyrule is actual gameplay unlike every other dogshit open world game.

              >An open world game needs to let you go anywhere at almost any time, and that means fundamentally you cannot get lost or not know where to go, or how to get there.

              More bullshit, getting lost and exploring is a central gameplay concept in BotW/TotK. This is why there is no handholding and no map, until you unlock it by exploring the world.

    No one truly think that any game can win against BG3. It have a blasoned name, acclaimed by critics and player, extremely refined, a surprise for the zoomers. It is going to win.

    damn Alan Wake was like 4th place I think when I first saw this bait image. wonder how that even happened.

    BG3 is predictable

    but honestly the biggest surprise is...cyberpunk???? what? seriously? Never would have expected it to be #2 but honestly...if I think about it, it probably shares more characteristics with BG3 than every other game no?

    -Open World
    -RPG
    -"Indepth" Character Customization
    -Try hard voice acting and character models
    -Western European studio
    -le heckin "interactivity"

    Personally. Even though I didn't like it as much as I hoped to. I want Alan Wake 2 to win, just for feeling different in stark contrast to everything else here. Would be interesting to see how people's perceptions of games or even the game awards and journos might change if it won.

      >TotK does NOT deserve to be that high

      Yes it does. It's easily the best game I've played all year on any system. Not only is TotK an incredible peerless single player adventure game, it also has a technical aptitude and creative attempt at emergent gameplay which absolutely baffled and humiliated every other developer in the industry.

    TotK really did just come and go, at least in the grand scheme of Zelda games. No lasting impact whatsoever despite its sales numbers or early blitz of coverage. Nintendo probably didn't help things by attempting to vigilantly patch out harmless exploits as if it was a competitive multiplayer game, or explicitly confirming that there's not going to be DLC.

          You are nostalgiaBlack person infected with brainrot. Re4 is a mini game sidequest compared to Cyberpunk. The scope is incomparable. Re4 has the same shitty arcade madden gameplay every level, cyberpunk is an entirely self-contained world. There are always 5 or 6 ways to play, and each of them is better executed than resident evil. The production values are higher, the graphics are better, the gameplay is better, the scope of the game entirely blows resident evil out of the water.

            Capcom by March of next year will have dropped RE4, SF6, And DD2 in 1 year. Their quality and diversity of products goes deeper than 2077and it's shitty development made by complete amateur's. RE4REMAKE is currently ranked 30 on Steams all time game ratings for games on their store. Know where 2077 is? Below 8,000 on Steam. It will never be praised, it will never be liked and it will never escape that reality of the disappointment it was. CDPR is dead and considered no better than Ubislop now. Kys and accept that all the reddit tier shilling and hype you fell for and conjured up since E3 2018(where they showed fake gameplay lol)went down in flames in December of 2020.

          could it be because it's just as good if not better than BG3 but didn't have the marketing shilling power that Nintendo has?

            Nah, it's shit, and ranked like shit when the polls aren't rigged by bots.

                Same website as

                Just so you guys know, Larian shills regularly rig polls in RPGxocex website.

                Those results for BG3 are most certainly botspammed.

                Which kind of proves Larian itself are engaged in poll manipulation.

        OS2 sold 7.5 million copies. It's more popular than most games people play. Best Switch game this year was Astlibra though, shame that will never be nominated.

        This dumbass really thinks the two most acclaimed games of 2017 being nominated for GOTY that year is some bizarre conspiracy.
        Hell it's an active handicap because there's the bigger chance they could absorb each other's voting bloc.

      To interpret this poll correctly, there are 2 games on that list which is being spammed.
      -Original Sin 2
      -Disco Elysiym

      OS2 is being spammed with high participation rate, it means lots of those votes are single issue voters, they merely entered the poll to upvote OS2.

      Disco Elysiym got hate-spammed, possibly by the Larian shills as well.
