The game you mostly play

I love a good story in my games, too, but it's also fun to have romp through a world where everything is trying to kill you for the flimsiest of reasons.

People complain in fallout 4 that they are confined to one specific role, the concerned parent.
But you are also confined to one specific role in the witcher 3, Geralt the stoic Witcher.
I don't think that either of the game deserve the praise they are getting, and are not material for game of the year. (who cares about game of the year anyway)
The major problems about fallout 4 is pretty obvious, bad performances, the perk system, the conversation wheel etc. etc.
Its obviously a console port only deserving at maximum 7/10 until thats fixed.
The major problems about witcher 3 is the combat system, its basicly just dodge, hit, dodge hit etc. People say it gets repetitive very fast and it isn't that great to begin with. Witcher 3 also suffers from many bugs and repetitive sidequest stepping which has become a "quality" stamp in many rpg's these days.
But in the end its what people personally like playing. People playing fallout 4 on a console might have a better experience than I have, aswell as people who enjoy open world with immersive backstory to the world enjoys the witcher.
Me personally I like immersive backstory, but I don't really enjoy open world. Fallout New vegas had a good lenght and open area for me, but both witcher 3 and fallout 4 seem to be just to large. I mostly enjoy a story that follows a certain rail, but changes depending on what choices I have made, like dragon age origins did. And i Know dragon age origins isn't considered the best, but back then it was pretty amazing and new how things changed depending on your choices.
Everytime I see a game with a main quest and 600 different sidetracks I actually get scared away because I don't know if I will ever finish it.
From what I heard the best roleplaying game this year is Undertale so im gonna check that out at some point.
I just want to go back to Game of the Year award. If you have any respect for video gaming you should stop caring about this award.
Just like any award the title released closer to the award date are more likely to receive it, and release problems such as bugs etc. aren't counted as negatives.
It's what the big developers want, you to not give a fuck about the bugs or bad controls.
Schwalbe:
That's reasonable and understandable. ^^
But you know, I'm planning to work in gamedev, so unfortunatelly, fucking GOTY might sooner or later affect, more or less, my future.
Hoja Lateralus:
Picked up Banished on sale and sunk up 15ish hours in it during weekend.
Also, I don't like New Vegas, if I wanted a walking game I'd play Stanley Parable :P
