Sea of Stars deverse for sure the award for best indie game. I don't know about Final Fantasy XVI, was the audio that good?
But i guess now it the time all the awards beginn. We will probably see Sea of Stars and Final Fantasy XVI and maybe Fire emblem Engange in some strategy catgory. I don't expect a lot other jrpg's in any other award and i don't think as well that Final Fantasy XVI get that much because of the hard competition with Baldurs gate, Tears of the kingdom and so on.
