Here's the link to where you start voting:


Below is my vote card. Lot of these, like the esports and fighting, I just picked one but have no idea who/what they are. Didn't see an option to skip.

Mine has a heavy Clair Obscur bias, obviously

Just clicked random for a bunch of these.

Best esport ? e-player? VR ? don't care.

Just click next instead of voting. Don't vote on stuff you haven't played, stay real and it'll help lift the games you enjoy instead of handing out free votes for stuff you don't actually care about.

Here's mine:

I'm not satisfied with the nominees. In Geoff's weird Nov-Nov timeline Indy would be my GOTY. But THIS year I'm going with Silksong out of those nominated.

For RPG, I didn't like the little I played of Expedition 33, why is it getting so many nominations? Is it the story?

I really liked Avowed, the lackluster interactivity there drag down the score for me but the combat was superb. It gets my vote from those nominated. Oblivion is obviously better as a complete product, still among my all time favorites, but can't vote for that.
 
I tried to vote yesterday but that site sucks. Couldn't complete the list, gonna try again later.

The Clair Obscur awards. I prefer Charlie Cox as Gustave for the voice performance though frankly the whole category could've been from the game and I'd be happy giving it to any of them.

The other categories I either didn't care about at all (esports, creator) or just hadn't played the nominated games. Several action games I enjoyed are missing.

Sadly no Game of the Year nominations for KCD2, tried to vote for it where I could.

Clair has a bigger budget, hundreds of people in the credits, high-quality graphics, voice acting, and a multi-platform release. In terms of scale and polish, 33 clearly stands out compared to other games. To me, it feels more like an AA title than a classic indie. For comparison, in the same category they nominated Blue Prince, Ball X Pit, and Absolum - typical small indie games. The difference in scale is pretty obvious.
Even the studio's CEO calls it an AA production. So its nomination for "Best Indie Game" seems kinda weird.
