According to the latest updated numbers on Gameawards.net, The Last of Us: Part II has now won 261 Game of the Year Awards worldwide with 169 of those being from media outlets and the other 92 awards being readers choice player voted awards.
2015s The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt was the game that had previously held the most Game of the Year awards with 260. While The Last of Us: Part II is only one ahead of it now, many more awards will still be handed out from January-April so the total number will continue to increase.

Abby was the reason. Nothing can top her character. She is beautiful, sexy, full of great personality and is fighting for what is right.

Probably the same reason Witcher 3 got it. Most critically acclaimed game with not much competition for the award and more outlets that give out the award than ever.

This game wasn't as good as part one, and the story and plot was complete trash.

A good story doesn't always have to relate to real life. It's a fictional story therefore it's all about the characters and how they are written. Lack of foreshadowing, contrived emotions, ruined the game for me. And the directions for the main characters, especially for Joel and Elly didn't make sense.

2. More and more outlets are giving away GOTY awards so this will continue to happen whenever a great game gets released.

Literally fucking the ex that has a pregnant girlfriend already, and gave 0 fucks about her when she died, fighting for what is right my ass, she was legit working for these people because her father was part of their militia in a high position, he died, and she lived scared shitless about getting shitcanned.

Abby is such an awful character and the worst portions of the game is when they force you to play the PoV of a fucking unredeemable character.

Overall i liked the game a lot but i don't see how people can call it the best game ever or w/e, i feel it was a downgrade story wise to the first one, visually its beautiful though.

Just like with Last Jedi and MGS2, it's a sequel that dares to be bold instead of being safe and pandering to entitled white men.

A lot of them that didn't even play it, yeah. But personally, I thought some of the cutscenes were hard to watch. And they weren't the violent ones. The violents ones were actually some of the best scenes this year. When they're on, they're on. But ones like the grow house scene....put me out my misery >_>. I don't like movies that are romantic, so when they turn the romance up to 10 in video games, it's hard for me to not just pray it will end. Felt the same when it was Drake and...also Ellie? What was her name? The not Chloe one. Which is a good example of what I don't mind in relationships in video games and movies. The Drake/Chloe sarcastic dickheads relationship lol

BUT. That's not really marks against the game objectively. We've had plenty of video games with Drake and Chloe type chemistry, the cheesy romantic types can have this. And maybe people finally getting it is why it does so good. Cause it doesn't shy away from what I personally cringe at. Most companies wouldn't be so bold to dive in headfirst lol.

What's more laughable are people going oh, you must play as the enemy! It's groundbreaking narrative! Gasp?! You mean we were... morally ambiguous all along?!

Like come on people lol wtf. Comes to show just how low video game standards are in terms of writing.

Also gameplay from ages ago being copy and pasted and still winning awards is... pretty awk

Other than cinematography, acting and graphics, which are the least important parts of a game for me, I don't agree with any awards given to this game.

Yeah there's a lot of games where you play as someone who brutally murdered a beloved character. /s

Playing as the bad actually is a great concept if done right. I would love to play as Sephiroth in his own game, but if FF7 made you play as him right after he kills you know who, I'd be super pissed.

FF7R should have you play as Sephirot after the big moment.

Which would be as riveting as playing any modern Naughty Dog game since you'd spent all that time trapped inside a crystal.

Well deserved, it didn't really jive with me at first, but after getting through the first half of Abby's 1st day, she immediately became my favorite character.

i really wish people would just move on though.

Either way, remember to Stan Abigail...
