The Game Awards are almost here, on December 12th, we’ll see which game this year get’s crowned Game of the Year, and I hope it’s not a DLC.

With The Game Awards creeping closer and closer, it’s time for people to vote and consider what they think the Game of the Year should be. And me bringing up DLC is no joke, The Game Awards is allowing Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree to be nominated for game of the year, which for me personality, I kind of don’t agree with.

The Game of the Year Award should be awarded to actual, full on games. You have to play and get to a certain part in Elden Ring, to even make Shadow of the Erdtree playable. I feel like needing to play a game, to even experience another game, is already making it inaccessible to most players. Game of the Year should be for GAMES, not DLC. That’s like me saying that Hades should be Game of the Year 2024, just because I played it in 2024, even though it was released in 2020.

So that’s my stance on that controversy, but the true question is, what’s my Game of the Year? Well, if you’ve been reading some of my articles, you’d already know the answer to that question. But I guess I’ll just leave this little image here.

What’s your Game of the Year 2024? Do you think DLC should be able to be nominated for Game of the Year? Would you be mad if Elden Ring wins another Game of the Year? Tell us in the comments.
