    That’s a fair assessment for the most part. I think a lot of the time it’s all just hype for one title, but this game is actually fantastic, and I think it deserves everything it won. I can’t think of anything else this year that would surpass Clair Obscur in any of those categories.

      this game is actually fantastic,

      Without a doubt. It’s on my list.

      I can’t think of anything else this year that would surpass Clair Obscur in any of those categories.

      Silksong, Outer Worlds 2, and Eldin Ring: Nightsong leap to mind.

        I haven’t played Outer Worlds 2, but the other two, while both great, just didn’t have what it takes to beat it IMO.

        That’s not to say my opinion is objectively right, it’s really a subjective question to begin with.
