My Mommy bought me a Nintendo game for Christmas and I've been playing Metroid Prime 4 all weekend.

I did agree that Baldurs Gate 3 lived up to the hype back when it released and was deserving of goty and from the outside it seemed a similar situation with Expedition 33.
I havent played Expedition 33 and im not in a hurry to do so. The general reception seemed very positive though. Im curious what would be deserving of GOTY in your opinion ?
Like the only real contenders I could think of that seemed to have somewhat similar reach would be Silksong or Kingdom Come deliverance 2 (which to be fair got both nominated) but I cant comment on either since I havent played them.
This is not me saying E33 has to be GOTY Im just curious what or which titles you have played 2025 that you would consider on that level .
Honestly, I'm not sure. I actually had to go and take a look at a "best games of 2025" list to see what I would pick from and I haven't played most of the games on the list. If I'd played it, probably Hades 2 would be a solid contender, judging by how phenomenal the first one was, but out of all the games I played this year the only one that came out in 2025 and I would qualify as Best Game material is likely ARC Raiders. It's a ton of fun, the gameplay is very solid, it also looks amazing, but the sound design of that game is insane, unlike anything I've ever seen in a game.
It's a tepid endorsement for GOTY, for sure, but... I don't think there was much else on my radar the whole year.
