Seems to have been an aggressively 8/10 game that was boosted by its brand.

No Starfield either. Good to see actual good games in the consideration. Gonna be a toss up between TotK and BG3. I think BG3 takes it just because Zelda is Zelda, but BG3 came out of almost no where to be as good as it is.

HL was a pretty good game. The combat was fun, the game looked great, and i really liked exploring Hogwarts.
But the story was kinda meh and outside of Hogwarts and the other little town the world felt kinda empty. I wouldn't call it mid but I wouldn't call it GOTY caliber either. There's really only 3 games i would consider GOTY though. BG3, TOTK, and Dead Space. If it counted though i would give it to Phantom Liberty because that has been my favorite gaming experience of all 2023 so far next to Lethal Company. --- The night brims with defiled scum,and is permeated by their rotten stench.

Or could it be to avoid controversy, they pretend it doesn't exist? The game reviewed well, sold even better. Something doesn't add up.Read all of the comments in this thread. Most people aren't even talking about the controversy, they are talking about how it is a kind of standard game that is elevated by its license. The game is just an outdated open world RPG and doesn't add anything new, especially in a year as stacked as this one is.
