No

Zelda is good, Mario and Wolfenstein aren't out now, Horizon is one of the most bland things I've played in my whole fucking life, Hollow Knight is very good.

>>388874129

Breath of the wild is an absolutely flawless masterpiece of a game...for the first 20 hours or so, afterwards it becomes very clear that the game could have been improved in a dozen different ways. Shit like lvl 4 armour breaks the game in two, it's not even funny.

>>388883625
I didn't call it a movie because of its graphics. I called it a movie because it emphasized voice acting and cutscenes (2+ hours of it, not counting hundreds of hours in NPC dialog) instead of focusing on better performance. If something can't hit 60 FPS, it's not GOTY material in my eyes.

Best 2 games were Prey and BotW

>>388883302
What? You can only instantly kill watchers, scavengers, and grazers. "Lmao its just shoot the weak point for massive damage" is a retarded reductive criticism that can be applied to practically any videogame. Enemies have multiple weakpoints with different effects

>Pretending that BOTW or SMO won't win GOTY

>>388883998
Prey was better then Wolfenstein and was original although it did copy a lot of other games

So far, Prey is the GOTY

Reminder that Nier is bland as fuck and the only reason its relevant here is because of lewd Rudy 2Booty pics

>>388884095
BotW will win. No doubt

>>388883606
Not on Screwattack.

2nd place was Skyrim

>>388883984
It does run like ass, but the reasoning behind it is that Nintendo wanted it to be "movie-like". Explain to me why they couldn't make it run at 60 FPS if that wasn't true. See, Nintendo doesn't have an excuse. They have money, developers, and knowhow of the very consoles they developed it for. So there is no reason they couldn't make it run better.

But they had plenty of time to make the crappy DLC.

>>388884278
Odyssey will be the better game but BOTW will win because Zelda is the number one "us gamers right?" series

Replace HK with Nioh.
HK is a good game, and it will probably win indie GOTY.

>>388884510
Actually, a kid would mindlessly lap it up without questioning it. An adult knows when to make criticisms. I'm sure the multibillion dollar company won't have its feelings hurt, so don't you worry about them.

>>388884589
If that's the reasoning, then they're still at fault for not delaying it to fix the optimization, or at the least release a patch that makes it run at 60 FPS. It's already embarassing that the game constantly fell to 20 FPS on launch and they had to rush out patches just to fix it. Did Nintendo develop this, or did Bethesda?

>>388885149
Yeah, it worked fine because they have a massive defense force. For goodness sake, we had people defending 20 FPS as "art kino".

>>388885797
The hell is wrong with the port? All I've heard is people praising it for running on a large variety of computers.

>>388885797
I just see a lot of Twitch streamers going to it regardless of if the game ends up being good. It's not a laggy, buggy, FOTM, early-access Arma mod, and it's fairly casual. Xbox and PS streamers did well with Destiny 1, and now it'll reach the broader and more MMO-happy PC crowd.

>>388886162
Anon what do you think of those Hobbit video games, they were filmed in 48 FPS so they can't be movies.

>>388874129

I'm free to ignore them.

>>388886196
it's pretty good. I'll play it for sure. what's wrong with it is mouse input numbers. They aren't granular enough, the jumps between values is huge even with the nonsensical modifier value. They should have just copied overwatch's sensitivity input value.

>>388886263
Still no 60? Boy, and that's ontop of the myriad of other problems.

>>388886348
So what happens when something is filmed at hundreds/thousands of frames per second for slow motion stuff, is it a super video game?

>>388885797

What is he doing?

The PC port is incredible, its being praised up and down as exactly how you do a proper PC port.

I know your little insular bubble prevents you from realizing that just because you say something failed means it will, but yea, D2 will just fine, hell D1 might as well been a fucking beta at launch and still has a huge consistent fanbase.

>>388886490
That makes it a casual video game then. Slow-mo is for games that are afraid to ask the player to think on the spot, so they slow the game down to let them take their time.

>>388886727
BUT ALL THOSE FRAMES! It's SUPER hardcore when its got thousands of frames, that's a way higher number than 60.

Who are you quoting?

>Wolfenstein looks okay
>Horizon didn't play, no interest
>Hollow Knight is fantastic

GOTY is Sonic Mania.

>Sonic Mania, the game where the first eight zones are hold down and turn your brain off, is GOTY.

>>388887502
I'm not talking about Sonic 2 though

>>388887697
No, you're talking about Sonic Mania, in which the same applies.

>>388887771
Not really, you can't even get through chemical plant act 2 doing that.

>>388887858
Yes you can.

Interesting, sounds exactly like whenever someone questions Overwatch. I wonder why that is.

>>388887858
Of there's some parts of every level that you cannot just hold down, but there's still lots of loops and ramps, far more than any previous classic game.

>>388874886
nah dude, it's the same reason the highest grossing movie doesn't win best picture:

Casual shit isn't actually good.

>>388874129
>Hollow knight has no chance of winning over mainstream garbage
Feels bad man

>>388889834
Good. We have enough arbitrary GOTY nominations, we don't need indie flavored ones as well.

>>388888208
True, but I forgive them since the zones are MUCH larger than they were before. It's not a big deal if you blaze through a large part of the level going top-speed through loops

>>388874129
>No NieR Automata
>No Persona 5
>No PUBG
>No Destiny 2
>No Nioh
Nah

>>388889903
GOTY in and of itself is arbitrary.

>>388890024
>No PUBG
>No Destiny 2
completely understandable

>>388874129
horizon zero doesn't belong there

>>388874129
People keep saying that BotW will win GOTY, but when was the last time a Nintendo game won? Also there's no way in hell that Nier, P5, Yakuza 0, and Hollow Knight will win, as they're still way too niche. At best you can hope for them to win something like Best Soundtrack for Nier or Artstyle for HK/P5. Also given the current political climate, it's highly like that the categories will be filled with shitty agenda pushing indieshit or games like Horizon and Uncharted

>>388890964
BotW wins this year pretty much guaranteed

>>388876418
Sonic Mania is nowhere near GOTY. Let's not get stupid.

>>388874129
>Yet another Mario shovelware title
>Last two are "literally who" tier
>Implying BotW
>No pubg

>No pubg
kek retarded underage

>>388876450
In twenty years when the game industry has been killed off one thing for certain is that we'll still have Dwarf Fortress

Neck beard Indy dev doing it for free will win every time

>>388874129
two of these games aren't even out yet fuck off.

>>388874129
Hollow knight isn't GOTY material, sorry. it's nice but nothing more than that. then again, GOTY means jack shit anymore.
