Zelda Tears of the Kingdom is IGN's game of the year, with Baldur's Gate 3 as the close second.

The only reason I wish it was BG3 would be for the industry to know there is absolutely still a market for these kind of games. At the same time I think they realize that now anyway. It will be interesting to see the uptick in that game type over the next 3-5 years.

The industry knows. There were articles about how the game scared everyone because it was released finished and it's fun.

“Finished”

Edit: to anyone downvoting. I’m playing the game with my partner on ps5. It has been fun, but now we are in act 3 and the game crashes every time she joins the game. The solution I have found is if I return to the camp and then let her join, it works. That’s why it’s not a “finished” game for me.

How does a CP2077 dlc make the list for GotY? What a stupid article.

[–] Wodge@lemmy.world 5 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Because it's proper fucking good, that's why.

But it's a dlc, not even the whole game.

They both deserve it, imo.
I hope there's more CRPG goodness on the way, and I hope the next Zelda is another departure in a different direction.

BoTW started something fresh and imo ToTK perfected it. It is my game of the year, but I hope the next game is a departure.

What!? Baldur’s Gate 3 didn't win. Who saw that one coming?
