Last time a game was in the zeitgeist to this extent was BG3, and we all know how that went. Only thing going against E33 at this point is that the Game Awards are a long time off and recency bias/forgetting about it tends to have an impact.
I sincerely hope it does sweep the awards, not only is the game phenomenal but it would also send a very positive message to the industry.
Who knows though, people love Kojima and if Death Stranding 2 is slightly more approachable than the first it might put up a good fight.
I’m not too worried about that, Elden Ring was a February game.
Breath of the Wilds was also an early year release GotY winner
Historically, Game of the Years have always been either in the first quarter, or the last quarter.
