    The fact that jury voting is 90% and public voting is 10% is both outrageous and a blessing, because the public could meme a bad game into winning but at the same time a jury is _anything_ but unbiased

    What's funny is that Baldur's Gate 3, a game by an independent studio, isn't nominated for best independent game.

      Almost every indie studio is working with publishers these days. There are punlishers specialized in indie games.
      I don't know, maybe your definitin is like "games made by studios that aren't owned by publishers but just work with them on a specific game is indie" which would be fair

      I wouldn't call bg3 an indie game. Maybe before DoS 2 you could consider larian an indie studio, but that game was already a massive success and they had a huge team working on BG3 with tons of funding from DoS 2. Not exactly what people would consider an indie game. That being said, if it means BG3 gets another award then I'm all for it.

      People will argue about this game deserving to win GOTY or that game deserving to win GOTY, but what they don't realise is that caring about The Game Awards in any capacity means that you've already lost. The event is trash on principle, and people are stupid for caring. It's feeling validated because a bunch of IGN reviewers dressed up and read some milquetoast gaming opinions into a microphone.

      Back then, PC gaming was very niche compared to today. Near-perfect games got released on PC but were never heard of by console players, who were only used to Nintendo and Sega and Playstation. PC gaming was popular in nerd circles, but this was still the era where nerds were not popular, and the internet was young enough that even the most basement-y of nerds sometimes had to go to literal shops in the real world to hunt down the parts needed to build high-end gaming PCs. My 5-disc BG1 crashed our brand-new Gateway 2000 dozens of times... generic household PCs were simply not at pace with an N64 or PS2 for the average teenager to spend time gaming.
      Even one of the most highly praised games of all time which is from that era, Planescape: Torment (the best book I ever played), is known of by like 10% of modern gamers, most of them only through seeing it pop up on Best Games lists, and even after an enhanced edition its Steam average completion rate is hilariously low. It's sad to see.

      Ive never played XIV but the score that Masayoshi Soken put together for XVI was absolutely phenomenal. For me the one thing that Final Fantasy always nails is the score and Soken lives up to that trend. I hope when it comes out on PC you'll have the chance to enjoy it!

Add the fact that everyone loved it and made realize to the gaming community that: “yes, fantastic games still exists, and we can still push the standards” and you got a genuine win in every way

      BG3 will not beat TOTK. It launched with a ton of issues and still has a ton of issues. Not too mention, you D&D fans overrated it to the frickin moon. its ok but not that great. Its combat is slow, dull, and unfair in favor of enemies. The dice roll mechanic is obnoxious and you lose way more than you win and here comes the reload and try again BS. The story is a convoluted mess and not that interesting. The characters are mostly annoying. The world design is just basic. The music was generic. I mean a 7 would be a fair score but for a game with so many issues to get so many 10s I feel like Larian bought a few scores there for sure. Its an ok game, but the best? Not even close. It shouldn't even win RPG of the year. That should go to FFXVI, Sea of Stars, or Star Ocean 2 R. All three were better and didn't have a metric fuck ton of issues at launch.
