Bassman1805,

he is also responsible for several of Nintendo’s other hit games – among them The Legend of Zelda, whose latest instalment just topped many of 2023’s game of the year lists.

Did the author not actually check any GotY lists, or do they only look at GotY lists by hard-core Nintendo fans? Because none of the big industry lists had TotK at the top.

GoodEye8,

Maybe they’re from a timeline where Baldurs gate didn’t release?

Lot of people put TotK as one of their top games, even for how stacked 2023 was. Although, I’d be hard pressed to find anybody labeling it as GotY.

MrScottyTay,

Almost everyone at GVG had it as their #1 spot

Then, nobody there was playing BG3.

MrScottyTay,

Some did and said it just wasn’t their kind of game

wildginger,

2nd place is still “topping,” I would say. When a song is topping the charts, its not usually actually number 1, more often its actually in the top 4, or 10, etc.
