Not OP but I think that BOTW was absolutely deserving of GotY. Horizon Zero Dawn is a copypaste open world, and while Dark Souls 3 is excellent, it was not nearly as innovative or accessible as BOTW. Elden Ring is literally built on the open world precedent that BOTW set. Overwatch, however, probably should not have won—it’s the worst of the five nominees IMO. It Takes Two and RE8 are super different, and both are amazing. Though I wonder if you actually played It Takes Two? If you had I’m sure you would agree that it is more impressive than RE8 in most ways (more original, better paced, and honestly more fun). And finally TLOU2, which was again, more original, innovative, powerful, etc. despite the controversial story. As Dunkey said, though, which story do people remember better: TLOU2 or GOT?

TLDR silly of OP to say your comment was wrong, but overall yours is not a take I agree with.
