Fewer categories, way less interesting video content, no new site... this year's GOTY was very unremarkable and disappointing. This is the first year where I don't feel like watching everything.
I just finished today's timestamps, you can find them earlier in the comment section. To everyone that thanked me for them over the week: you're welcome, and I hope y'all enjoyed the awards!
00:01:47 - The GOTY format has changed! The staff will spend the first podcasts talking about games they liked in release date order, while categories will get their winners at the end of the week.
This year’s categories are: Best Style, Best Music, Best Debut, Hottest Mess, Best Moment or Sequence, Best Story, Best Ongoing Game, Best Looking Game, Most Disappointing Game, Best Game.
Finally, early access games and games released in December after the recordings will now be counted for the discussions unlike previous years.
