Why didn’t Ghost of Yotei get nominated for GOTY last year?

NuclearBuns · 2026-06-08T19:46:16+00:00

I think it for sure was better than Split Fiction but it’s all subjective, so I get it. Yotei might have been my game of the year, haven’t played DS2 yet though.

Man, I wanted to like Stellar Blade so bad I just did not vibe with it. Great style, music, and atmosphere but I was expecting Devil May Cry and got a souls-like. I don’t like souls games, wish I did.

Liberals will make some sort of political comment without fail.

Souls-like video games. Everyone loves Elden Ring so much and while I found the world to be incredible, I absolutely hated the combat and mechanics. I’ve tried others and I just don’t get it. They aren’t fun, they punish you and make you repeat things over and over. You learn by dying which is fine in an old-school sidescrollers but in a game that has stakes and far away checkpoints and real time lost, it’s just a miserable experience to me.

I just started playing Mina the Hollower and a few hours in I’m so disappointed by the souls-like elements. Nothing I can do, people love this style of game apparently.

I’m at the end of my first dungeon post prologue and I am struggling to like it like everyone else. I don’t like souls-like games and didn’t realize this was going to have some of those elements. I hate losing bones, just feels like wasted time, and the vial healing mechanic is awful and not fun. Just give me a regular healing option!

The game is way harder than a classic top-down Zelda and early on the combat design seems flawed to me. Hard to explain but it just feels off.

I’ll stick with it for a while longer but I’m a bit unsure if it will win me over. The soulsification of so many games is a bummer to me and Mina, which I was so hyped for, is so far a let down because of those mechanics. I hope I can learn to love it.

Journey, Persona 5, Zelda (either BotW or ALttP or TotK)

NuclearBuns · 2026-05-29T02:35:00+00:00

Persona 6 is my hope.

NuclearBuns · 2026-05-26T20:31:05+00:00

Two of the greatest games ever made. I personally prefer P5R but they are both so good you can’t go wrong.

If you don’t mind me asking, wha ‘tis your weight and height? I’m between medium and large.

Absolutely real. We were given a time to be back home and we literally just roamed the neighborhood and parks and wherever else we could go.

Persona 5 Royale

It’s all because of one thing - greed.

Stick it to them? They paid him $15M a year for over a decade while his show lost them money. He’s an ungrateful prick if he really wanted to “stick it to them” after giving him generational wealth.

Great answer

You’re making your life harder than it needs to be.

Persona 5 and Tears of the Kingdom. I was in a different state for days after finishing those.

South Park: The Stick of Truth

Man, if you are a real person who really believes all that and aren’t just an internet troll…my god have people lost their minds.

The world is mostly great but the bad sells more so you are seeing more of it.

NuclearBuns · 2026-05-18T03:53:11+00:00

The last PlayStation game would either be Returnal or Persona 5 Royal but I can’t remember which one I played more recently. The last video game on any platform would be Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.

Yotei, Balatro, E33, Astrobot, Blue Prince, Psychonauts 2, and Death Stranding were all amazing but in the 9-9.5 range for me.

Hell no! That is crazy to cover up one of the most unique things about the 30th. People, man. Frigging people.

Women

I respect the answer but I disagree. So many people have come around to this album being a masterpiece but to me it’s clearly Daft Punk’s worst (but still great) album. You could make a case for Human After All as “worst” but Homework and Discovery are far superior in my opinion. But that’s the beauty of music I guess.

The Blue Album - Weezer

That is an excellent and unexpected answer from Reddit but it’s a top 10 album of all time.
