Game of the Year

Baldur’s Gate 3!!!!!

Big congrats to all the games that were even nominated, a nomination says something about where your game stands among the flood of other games to release in 2023. Baldur’s Gate 3 had a ton of nominations today and six awards total, I have to say I’m not surprised it won. But in the end it was a great year for gaming.
