Even Starfield’s fans aren’t surprised game isn’t up for GOTY

It’s no secret thatStarfieldhas missed out on a Game of the Year nomination at this year’s Game Awards, but even fans of Bethesda’s recent space epic aren’t totally surprised.

Take a look at our favouriteStarfieldwins and fails below.

WhileStarfieldis a great game - and one that I think will only continue to improve with age - it’s up against some incredibly tough competition this year. It’s been an unprecedented year in the industry for quality, with a potential GOTY contender practically releasing every month. HadStarfieldreleased last year in its release state, I think it would’ve easily secured a nod. Had it been released next year, with a tad more development under its belt - adding city maps, smoothing out graphics etc - it too perhaps might’ve gained a nod.
