This week, it’s Alan Wake 2, which has released and scored an 89 on Metacritic, a tick below a 90, but a 92 if you’re looking on PC where its visuals can be maxed to their fullest.

    I think it’s a bit complicate than that from core gamers, as there are a couple GOTY(steam, whatever JG runs, websites), and if we are talking about what JG runs, then it’s a mix of popular vote and judge.(if anything like Oscar, they send vote to industry veterans that are member of the “society”.)

    For example, I haven’t played the bottom 3 in the list simply because that’s not my type of game. I am still holding on Alan Wake 2 until the initial hype settles a bit cause the control hype got me and I actually don’t like it that much(story lore is fun, but the loot drop part are not.) I might give armored core 6 a try once it’s on sale.

    I did a quick trend search, I think BG3 should take the cake.(cause it come later and “lasting” better)

    Zelda from peak 68-35-20-10(per month gap)

    BG3 from peak 78-48-27(we don’t have mid Nov number yet, but it should hover around 20)

    Hogwarts 100-25-10
