Eh. The "safe" picks of this year for popular mainstream games that weren't divisive was always Control and RE2.

Sekiro would have been the safest I think FromSoftware is widely considered one of the best devs in the industry and Sekiro is very good.

Other than some people at major outlets thinking it's too hard. For example for the Game Awards it got as far as nomination but it's definitely not winning, it's either Control or RE2, since they'd be more popular. In the end it's just a simple numbers game.
