You're pretty much alone with that reaction as I'm sure most people here would agree with the designation, when it comes to multiplatform games this year Wink


Um, nope. He's not alone. No way did Dark Souls II deserve to win "game of the year" and I absolutely agree that the DS series are shockingly overrated. Demon Souls and Dark Souls 2 are very good games, insanely difficult but still relatively fun, but most definitely overrated in terms of "omgomgomgomg bestest game series evar!!1"

Alien Isolation?
South Park TSoT?
Wolfenstein?
Divinity Original Sin?
Wasteland 2?
Shadowrun Dragonfall?
Child of Light?

Hell, I'd even put Watch Dogs above Dark Souls 2, to be honest.

Yup, agreed! There are still several high-end games due to come out in the next two months. Running GOTY awards now is highly premature. IMO they should be ran in January, so as to account for the entire previous year.

oh that might be it i forgot that half these were 2014 aswell Very Happy
Wolfenstein definitely best FPS so far , as far as turnbased RPGs i prefer Divinity over Dragonfall/Wasteland. Child of Light , South Park and Alien were all great , but i just couldnt get into them. As for Watch_Dogs it was IMO great , but i couldn't shake off that "AC1" feeling from it (lot of great ideas but lot of them underdeveloped)
I just really like DS lore and gameplay and after finishing DS2 i got the same feeling of satisfactiong that i could't play anythng else for two weeks properly without being bored and unsatisfied....

Wait, what do you want them to do, predict the future? Laughing Obviously the upcoming games from here to 31 Dec are gonna be taken into account in the 2015 edition of the awards. Didn't you see Black Flag, a 2013 game winning some category this year? Wink

I wouldn't be surprised if Alien: isolation (my second best game of the year) is among the favorites next year, even though I expect The Witcher 3 to win Very Happy

Let's get real, they are never going to hand a GOTY award to a PC exclusive game in a multiplatform event, sadly Laughing

And BTW, after your arguments, our fellow humper scaraderpa is still alone. He is alone at laughing at the fact that Dark Souls 2 won. If you bothered to read you know it's his reaction which has been the point of discussion all along. I mean, you can disagree with the designation but you would have never given such reaction to the fact that the game could be a contender, clearly Smile

DS2 is massively overrated, whereas I played WD from start to finish and - terrible, absolutely terrible - performance issues aside; I loved every minute.

He laughed at DS2 winning GOTY. How is that a bad thing? Just because you disagree?

I know I can and I did and I do. I may not have laughed, but that doesn't change the fact that he's not alone in thinking that it doesn't deserve to win GOTY. There are, again IMO, better candidates.

I disagree with his reaction yes. Just like 9x% of people here. Any problem with that? Laughing

That's it. That ultimately supports my point. End of discussion Smile

Personally I wouldn't compare Dark Souls games to Watch_Dogs because their approach is very different.

I'm sorry, but that doesn't make any sense. When it comes to GOTY awards, they don't distinguish between genres (well, not for the "overall winner" category at least Very Happy) otherwise it would be Dark Souls vs... what... ? No other games like Dark Souls came out this year. Automatic winner! People are curious why I put WD over DS2, it's because I enjoyed WD more. That's all the criteria I need Smile

That can be said of any pair of different genre titles though. And sometimes, among titles in the same genre Razz So yeah, it would make it impossible to designate a GOTY each year. Perhaps that kind of award is just useless and naturally unfair.

Giving best of 2014 awards in October is nothing less than a sign of heavy retardation. And DS2 GOTY... I really didnt think so many people take pleasure in playing game that was made purely to piss them off also being shitty console port and bugfest.
