I'm almost certain that the mess that is PUBG right now will not hit their date, and the only reason that date EXIST is to game the GotY awards publication wide before "sadly" getting pushed back.

It's because gaming is just about streamers and memes to a large collective of people now, so who gives a fuck where the awards go.

I mean my reasoning is more selfish in that I just care about single player experiences like Nier more than PUBG but it is undeniably a "Game of the Year" in that it completely dominated 2017. So it still has a right to win, just not one that I personally would want to see.

The issue is this is like saying Beauty and the Beast should win Best Picture.

I'm super looking forward to PUBG on XBone and have been for months. The quality of the game has nothing to do with why I don't think it should be here. Minecraft was up for awards the year it came out, not the 3 years prior.

Actually, I remember some outlets nominating it back in 2009 when it was in Alpha.

I'm sure there were outliers. That game was where this started for the most part.

Nowadays people mostly have their shit together with eligibility, which is why the devs put out this almost certainly fake release date to push their way into it. I'd put money down that PUBG isn't going to release this year.

They should just phone it in and try next year because this year is stacked

PUBG didn't get in because of the fake release date. It got in because it was released to the public. The cutoff date for game releases is November 24th I believe.

PUBG is not out. Early Access games are unreleased games. It has not hit 1.0.

Yeah, Early Access or not, because everyone could play it, it was eligible. I don't agree with how they did it either and would have waited to nominate it next year but that's just how it is.

According to Wiki, a game just needs a "commercial release" prior to November 27th, 2017. Early Access is considered a commercial release. Anything that's not specifically designated as a Demo is, pretty much.
