    I was imagining KCD2 would win GOTY. Been playing it throughout the year and it really is a masterpiece, IMO.

      People on here like to shit on tga for whatever reason; but I like to use it as a way to check out games I would have otherwise missed.

      KCD2 was the only game on the GOTY list not on my radar. I picked it up a few weeks ago as a result and have been absolutely loving it
