So Palword was nominated for the Better With Friends award, meaning they are okay with it being in the awards despite being a beta, but it didn’t get nominated for GOTY.

Robbed.

I was surprised to see Hades 2, as it's still in early access. Not that it doesn't deserve it.

You can‘t even rate early access games for obvious reasons. Nominating it for GOTY is just silly and potentially very awkward for the devs.
