As in, it will get fucked in GotY deliberations. Jeff has been doing the ground work for weeks and Patrick seems to be the only one who cares enough to make a case for it but, like Vinny with the witcher 2, he can't seem to discuss what makes the game great without anyone to bounce off of.
Really bummed out about the dragon age discussion they had on the bombcast this week. They spent all their time discussing bugs that require you to press square twice or reload an auto save that's probably 2 minutes away. And those bugs occur about once or twice every 20 hours. You will go twice the length of a front runner GoTY candidate without encountering a single bug in dragon age.
Then they blurb out 2 sentences about why the game is interesting and impressive (and by they I mean Patrick, because everyone else was still bitching at that point)
Even Vinny says he likes it and then proceeds to nitpick at length about the few things he doesn't care for.
Really puts things into perspective when they proceed to gush about bayoneta non stop for 15 minutes. Style over substance, spectacle over depth, nothing they said about that game makes me want to pick it up even though I own a WiiU.
Not looking forward to GotY deliberations this year. At least when the witcher 2 got shafted it was up against stiff competition instead of bargain bin GotY candidates like sunset overdrive, shadow of mordor and bayoneta 2.
