Why is Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is not even in the conversation for Game of the year?

Of course.

It may not be a GOTY but it is still a great game and especially so if you are an Indy fan.

Personally I enjoyed it quite a bit and was pleasantly surprised. To be fair I expected it to be more of Veilguard or Avowed level game and instead got a very competently done and fun game with right Indy vibes.

It's not the first time I see someone saying it's kinda like an imm-sim. Honestly, if that's the case, lots of props to MS for allowing it.
Its adjacent.

Its basically IM Sim changed a bit to be more appealing to a wider audience.

I would have preferred if it was fully simulation based.

As is, its a mashup of different genres, best way to play it depends on player. I enjoyed it like a Skyrim lite, exploring with reckless abandon.
 
Because the game was mid as fuck.

Because the game was first person.

Because the game was made by Machine Games who are a mid developer.
 
Was a really good game, and probably worthy of a nomination or two. Won't win a thing though.

Definitely appeals more to the age group that grew up with Indy - makes it easier to gloss over the obvious flaws.
 
Am I missing something?

Don't see many outlets writing their nominations yet, the one that we did get so far does have it in the GoTY noms.


It's in the nominee list, but it's not in the discussion as per the OP
