I personally don't care which game wins the awards. I'm there watching for entertainment. I see lot of discussions and people take the awards too serious in my opinion. It's like taking IGN scores serious. :D

What's wild to me is, that Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom didn't appear once on this list.

Well it's listing only one game per year and BG seems to be the winner for 2023.

[–] thingsiplay@beehaw.org 2 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Not exactly. Per year are multiple games listed. Its just incredible that Zelda didn't won a single award, based on this list.

[–] apotheotic@beehaw.org 4 points 5 hours ago

It won awards, but it didn't get the "overall game of the year" award from any of those 5 outlets. And, compared to baldurs gate 3 I think its quite easy to understand why. Totk was a well polished experience but it suffered quite a lot from "mile wide inch deep" syndrome IMHO. Probably one of the best games Nintendo has ever made, but it isn't as good as baldur's gate 3.
