I think it's quite telling that Starfield only showed up once, despite being one of the most hyped games of the year. Skyrim and Fallout 3 were both strong GOTY, IIRC, so to me it feels like Bethesda have lost their way.

So many strong games here! I'm a little biased since I've not played many of these, but I'm hoping BG3 cleans house.

Kind of crazy that Pizza Tower wasn't nominated for Best Indie.
