Not really, no, probably the opposite because they have a lot of similarities and I wouldn't personally recommend playing them back to back. Just play part 2. It is the better of the 2. If you like it, play part 1 down the road sometime. I also liked it a lot, but 2 is better.

You dont need to play first game, the story is not connected.

To me an ongoing game is a gaas game with continous support and content and not a dlc after 3 years. But that's just my opinion.

I'm voting for it for GOTY. Not sure what you're talking about man.The Spider-Man 2 cope is hilarious to watch in all these threads.

What’s wrong with mentioning Starfield now? I can’t keep up with how easily these people get triggered.

Because they are were not "supporting" the game they were fixing broken game. I dont understand why devs should be rewarded releasing broken game.....its okay for devs release broken game as long as they fix it later on?

So happy to see Alan wake 2 I'm the running. Just a dream that the game exists and for it to be ...such it's own identity, trying new things. Absolutely amazing game.
I've not played bg3, but I understand how amazing that game is. My heart is with Alan Wake II

Just not true. The 2.0 was factually much more than game fixes. They overhauled many of the systems and made significant improvements to gameplay overall. Yes, there were a lot of fixes in the update that needed to happen but to summarize it as simply fixing a broken game is not accurate.

I think common nomenclature indicates that when a number of consumers hear "ongoing," they think of something with continued drip feed updates, expansions, 24 hour service, etc. I mean....past and current nominees support this interpretation, essentially all being MMOs or GAAS. I mean...that's kind of the tip of the iceberg, and if I were seriously invested enough, I'd go into my thoughts about DLC being included in awards not specifically tailored to it is kinda shit, too.
Unfortunately, this is TGA, and it's primarily orchestrated by game journalism, so to adequately convey the level of seriousness I believe this issue warrants, I'd need a lion, a flaming hoop and seven clowns.

I still havent played it but 2.0 how the game should have released in the first place, when the game first released it was literately busted and unfinished and in my opinion they shouldn't be rewarded for that.
IT NO OKAY to release full price broken game.

It's disappointing and they are Xbox biased, that's all.

I would agree with you if this nomination were about fixing a broken game, but I just don't see it as that. We disagree. It's fine.

Ah ok, gotcha. I thought there was some controversy surrounding Starfield I wasn’t aware of. Nvm me.

Sucks to see so many good games get snubbed, but then again who really cares about these stupid awards?

??? There isn't. None of this is about a "broken game".

Seriously, I assumed ongoing meant content updates, not bug fixes and such. So I don’t see why Cyberpunk should be controversial since most praised the DLC expansion.

, buddy, it's literally about updates for a broken game. That's the on-going support. 
Cyberpunk 2077's Redemption May Be Complete, But the Story is Far From Over
Cyberpunk 2077 has come a long way since its release in 2020, but the story of CD Projekt Red's science-fiction IP is still being written.

Two final, major updates have transformed the game from punchline to powerhouse

Then there's a DLC expansion.

Then why Xenoblade 3 not nominated? Since that game also got big expansion this year and unlike CP 2077 it was full functioning game from release, without ever getting delayed and in fact releasing it sooner.

Eh...I don't need links my man. I'm giving my opinion having sunk 100 hours into the game since version 2.0 was released.

What did they expect?
We all know that the game awards itself is brand ambassadors head-quarters. For the other brand.

This was an extremely tough vote for me. This was a great year for indies because I can think of other amazing games that just barely didn't make the cut.

None of those 3 deserve it compared to what they picked and I love all 3 of the games you picked.

It is. You could also say it's an opinion backed up by a general consensus from other people.
Why would you lie about something that can so easily be disproven with a quick google search?

I still think it is the GBC Link's Awakening by a wide margin.

Imagine Starfield being on that list instead of Hogwarts Legacy LMAOBest RPG
Baldur’s Gate 3 (Larian Studios)
Final Fantasy XVI (Square Enix)
Lies of P (Round8 Studio/Neowiz Games)
Sea of Stars (Sabotage Studio)
Starfield (Bethesda Game Studios/Bethesda Softworks)
Anyone want to guess who wins that?
