The common theme I'm seeing with these polls are GameFAQs users rebelling against AAA games.

Resident Evil 7, Uncharted: The Lost Legacy, Assassin's Creed Origins, Wolfenstein II, Destiny 2, and Forza Motorsport 7 are all games by AAA developers that have bombed in these polls.

While some of those games are in genres that GameFAQs doesn't care about too much, the 3 first games on that list are all from franchises where one or more earlier games has done very well in past GotY polls and won at least one contest match as well. Wolfenstein II and Destiny 2 are FPS games, a genre that's fallen from grace once Call of Duty imploded on the site. Although for what it's worth, Wolfenstein II is a single-player only game, a rarity for a modern-day FPS game. So I thought that alone might have boosted Wolfenstein II, knowing that this site's users wouldn't be buying a game that revolves more around the multiplayer than the single-player (since there is no multiplayer).

The last game on the list is Forza Motorsport 7, a game from a genre that GameFAQs basically doesn't care about (with the exception of Mario Kart).
