I’ve played all of these minus Zelda. While Spider-Man is my personal game of the year, I voted and say Baulders Gate deserves this. That game is insane and it’s a massive achievement for RPGs. Also, Im not sure how I feel about RE4 being allowed to be nominated for game of the year when technically it’s an old game. Nothing wrong with the game but I feel like maybe for GOTY category they limit it to games that not only released this year, but are but remakes of older games. What are everyone’s thoughts on that?
I think Remakes are New games if they are made to the Level that RE4 is. But i honestly can Not tell you where id mark a line between them or if there even is One. You could argue that every artistic work is already a new version of already existing work, but videogames are unique in the case of how you can litteraly reuse files
