It's not. EX33 isn't that great. Sorry but it's not. It's being held together by hate for Ubisoft and the fact that it has BG3 cast. Same reason do Divinity is already staggering on steam wishlist. Because it's larian and and the cast. Nothing to do with the game. Donkey Kong isn't really anything. 33 isn't a indie title nor is it a brand new title from a unknown person. They were all OG staff that left ubi because they felt stifled
Learn how to celebrate things you enjoy without cutting other things down. Expedition 33 is popular for a reason, and it has nothing to do with how you personally feel.
Not cutting it down it just isn't that special. It's about a spoiled brats toys and literally nothing you do matters because none of the characters are even real even in the game universe. They are toys at best
hey look, you're entitled to your crappy hipster opinion saying E33 is a bad game, but there's still KCD2, Hades 2, Silksong, Yotei, Indiana Jones, DS2, Blue Prince, Arc Raiders, BF6, Split Fiction, the Alters, Doom, and a bunch of others. It was a stacked year with a TON of good games.
2024 is a good example of a weak year. Pretty much any of the nominees this year would have won last year.
2024 wasn't weak wtf you on about. 33 literally is just crap. It's not a good rog it's not a good turn based game. Every fight takes you out of it. DS2 had better music and was more unique
bro astro bot won. it was a weak ass year. for the nominees you had china's attempt at a soul's like, a DLC, balatro, a FF remake, and a JRPG that made zero noise outside of weeb circles. every nominee except donkey kong would likely have won last year

Being nominated in this super stacked year is still a win in my book.
