The only reason it didn't win is because the dev didn't bribe them like FromSoftware did

It was extremely popular with players. That said there really isn't much gameplay. It's a walking simulator.

Because /r/gaming was told to take over for a nomination and they nominated le ebin kitty game, even though it's not even the best indie this year.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

Hades was the best game of 2020, not even a debate in such a shit year.

I've seen a little of the beginning of the game. It looks like you just walk around. I'm not sure if it even has much puzzles or enemies. But I only ever watched the first like 10 minutes

Critics feel obligated to nominate an indie game and it's always going to be the one most of them played.

Twelve Minutes was nominated for way too many things in 2021 for that exact reason. That's even more blatant of this logic than Stray was.

Hades was not better than Doom Eternal or 13 Sentinels

I forgot 13 Sentinels came out that year bc I got it on switch this year. Fine, Hades was the second best game that year then, 'cause it was definitely better than Doom Eternal.

Just like there's an obligated indie game there's also always an obligated Nintendo game. It has no chance of winning if it isn't an open world Zelda game.

For whatever reason they tend to ignore platformers so it was between that or Bayonetta 3.

Yeah that's the other game that deserved it more imo. Bayonetta 3 was one of the funner action games I played, more fun than Elden Ring or GoWR. Too bad the performance can be clunky and the story.... jesus I'm surprised there wasn't a bigger commotion with how this game ended than TLOU2.

Seemed like a lot of people liked it, and there's a lot of similar stuff out there and playing a game like this as a cat is fairly different in concept.

If it makes it to Xbox i'll play it for sure.

Kinda feels like Vampire Survivors is going to have a lot more longevity and impact than Stray has had. But no chance of game critics nominating and awarding a game looking like it.

Yeah, I think you're right about this. There usually aren't that many big AAA titles in one year and it's almost always going to go to one of them, so they feel fine filling out the rest.
