Don't see anything I'm particularly in disagreement with, but I didn't play most of them. I don't even remember who I voted for in most of the categories.

Impressive that RE Village got GOTY. I never would think that single player horror games have a massive following to compete with other big titles, but then again, Capcom is hitting it out of the park lately.

I’m also crushed that Dorf Romantik didn’t get the sit back and relax award. The game is super chill and I still play it in my freetime.
 
Had never heard of that
