ps: voted for Octopath Traveler 2
not nearly as bad as Octopath Traveler 2. Should've been a lock for best rpg nominee and could have won best score.
Dunno how you're doing things, but I made a dumb little Python script:

I haven't built out a pipeline yet for updating the votes. I threw the JSON into NotePad++, used a regex to format the data, then put it into a spreadsheet for sorting/aligning and rounding.
Pizza Tower isnt listed here and it makes me very sad. It would have surprised people how far it got in the votings
True, but maybe they get extra generous if it's wins both lol.
And Destiny 2...
I get why they're in some other categories, but did they need to be here?
Voted for Alan Wake 2, FF16, Octopath Traveler 2, Spider-Man 2, Baldur's Gate 3, and Super Mario Bros Wonder.
Then I chipped in for Hi-Fi Rush, Armored Core 6, and Street Fighter 6 as even though I haven't played them they deserve accolades.

Wait, Genshin Impact isn't winning again??? Yes, there is still hope!
Also I know people like the new DLC, but I definitely didn't expect to see Cyberpunk in second place over Zelda.
Anyway, not a bad list so far (I'm surprised Lies of P is that high). Just keep the wizard game out of the top 10

Nice to see Phantom Liberty getting love in the votes. Now if only the VA for Songbird got a nom for best performance :/
Exo got snubbed big time. To not even get nominated and not even put up for consideration in the fan vote is dirty.
I'm confused why there's so many games that released years ago in there, what is the point of this award lmao. There's a bunch of prominent games that released this year that aren't in the list, they don't need to pad it out. And putting TERF Wizard in there sucks.
Alan Wake 2
Hi-Fi Rush
Baldur's Gate 3
AC6

Putting the stupid wIzard game here is like a proclamation for losers with no taste

It shouldn't be there but it will also be really funny when it doesn't even break the top 10 and people still have to cope by saying it was rigged somehow
Vote for Hi-Fi Rush! That and Lies of P are the only new IP this year on that list. (And Honkai Starrail? Or is that extension of Genshin IP? Anyway.) Out of 30. That's sad.
What's the significance of new IP? This sounds similar to being disappointed that a remake was nominated, even though it's a fantastic remake, is basically an entirely new game, and for most people playing it, is probably the first version of the game they've ever played.
What's wrong with sequels? What new IP is missing from this list that you'd like to have seen? I'm more disappointed in all of the GAAS in this list than anything. And it seems like most of the people voting agree based on the current results.
Ehhh... That'd be true if you could only vote for 1 thing, but considering you can vote for 10 things, I'm assuming people voting for one are also voting for the other.
10 votes? a lot of those are going to the same 5 at least. Unless the one I picked first has more weight?
They do this every year, 10 picks out of 30 first, then you can pick 5 out of those 10 for the second round and eventually 1 winner out of the last 5 that gets announced on stage. Every vote weighs the same
