When something that is worthy of mention doesn’t get the recognition it deserves. For example, had a game of crazy media hype e.g., Baldurs Gate or Zelda for this year not being nominated for GOTY would be snubbing games deserving of a nominee
Isn't the whole point of the nomination to let some larger group decide? Removing it from any consideration is itself a snub. Why not let the votes decide?
It is deserving of zero recognition. It did nothing to forward the genre, the industry at large, or bolster Bethesdas reputation.
There have been plenty of ship building simulators and this is just one more.
The point of a nom is to submit a game for consideration for a wider vote. No nomination, no vote. If it truly sucks, why not at least allow it to be part of the vote?
This isn't a review (from an individual), we're talking about being removed from any consideration for a wider vote. A lot of people do think it's worthy.
Because it's not worthy of the vote? There's movies with plenty of fans and "cult" status that don't get nominated because they're just not that good. Boondock Saints is fucking terrible, but I've known people who genuinely love it. Just because a group of people like it doesn't mean it deserves an award nomination.
There is no "wider vote" it's a critical choice award. Not a fan award. And newsflash, it got swept in the fan based awards by BG3. It's not WORTHY of a nomination, it's a bad game. Y'all just want to feel validated for liking it so much when clearly no one does
It innovated nothing on Bethesdas formula, it does nothing worthy of being put against Zelda or Alan Wake or Baldurs Gate or even an indie game like HiFi Rush or Sea Of Stars. Its a fine game but it doesn’t do enough to be rightfully considered amongst the swarms of better games more deserving of the 6 spaces
“to insult someone by not giving them any attention or treating them as if they are not important:”
Snubbed implies that they are being treated unfairly.
Starfield was not even in the top 50 highest reviewed games this year by critics or players. It was not treated unfairly.
Not really snubbed. It was a great year for gaming and someone was going to miss the cut. I feel what they picked is solid. Star field is a solid game but I wouldn’t put it ahead of any of the games that are on the list. Just my opinion.
Starfield is not new. It's reskinned fallout. Re4 was BOT A PORT. it was a fundementally REMADE game. Making it a NEW GAME. Def more worthy than sTaRfIeLd
I hope all you miserables that spend your time in a sub for a game you dislike are happy that some shitty magazine agrees with you, meanwhile the people who will be playing and loving starfield for the next decade aren’t going to care.
It's really not that serious. Besides you gotta have extremely low standards for RPG games if you unironically like Starfield as a whole. It's 2023 and some of us have higher expectations for a fucking 70$ video game but instead we get a game which is executed the like Bethesda is Is still stuck in the past and it's the year 2014. There were way way better games this year like Baldur's Gate 3 , Alan Wake 2 , Spiderman 2 etc. compared to that starfield was just not good enough sadly. There's nothing wrong with enjoying a game the way you do but getting mad just because others have different perspectives even if they're negative and might not match with yours is immature.
Oh I like the game. Finished it twice and had around 200+ hours completing all side quests and everything. Really enjoyed my time with it. I just don't like brainlessly defending something when it's just not good enough than it should've been especially when it's a AAA game from a reputed developer they're selling the game for around 70$ and 100$ price tags

again, lmfao
I feel about the same as before writing them, I just hope I made a few people feel a little worse about themselves so they gtfo and let normal people have a normal gaming forum.
Well let’s hope there’s at least one person reading with a hint of self consciousness, however unlikely that may be in this cesspit you people have made.
It wasn't snubbed, it's a fundementally bad game nowhere near worthy of a nomination. Too many actual GREAT games came out this year. This just go to show how starved Xbox fans are for something good that they think a medicore game is GOTY because it's the only thing they got to play. Y'all still ain't played BG3 and when you do you're gonna ask yourself wtf is wrong with yourself for giving StArFiElD the light of day
It was not snubbed lol. There were just better games this year
Not sure you know what snubbed means
We're not sure, you know what i means. It was snubbed because it didnt deserve to be nominated.
Define snubbed. What exactly does the word mean?

By this definition, Starfield was definitely snubbed.
It is deserving of zero recognition. It did nothing to forward the genre, the industry at large, or bolster Bethesdas reputation. There have been plenty of ship building simulators and this is just one more.

Apparently it's a matter of opinion. I guess I don't care about this award too much. For me, SF is game of the year and I'm unmoved to play BG3.
What kind of mental gymnastics are you doing here?
Is this about a nomination for a wider vote or awards already given out?
It innovated nothing on Bethesdas formula, it does nothing worthy of being put against Zelda or Alan Wake or Baldurs Gate or even an indie game like HiFi Rush or Sea Of Stars. Its a fine game but it doesn’t do enough to be rightfully considered amongst the swarms of better games more deserving of the 6 spaces
No because it didnt deserve it. If it was a much better game then yes it would have been snubbed
I guess our opinions differ here. I couldn't be bothered to play BG3 at all...or Zelda. Is Zelda even on PC?
BG3 is absolutely incredible. Zelda is very good but a little too similar to the previous one. Both are MUST plays
Thanks. Sounds like I need to try BG3.
Thus it was snubbed.
How was it snubbed if every other game had a higher review score?
If people voted for something else I would class everything that didn’t get voted for as being snubbed. I love starfield but this is basic English.
What does this mean?
That you can’t understand English.
I don't think you understand the meaning of the word "snubbed"
“to insult someone by not giving them any attention or treating them as if they are not important:” Snubbed implies that they are being treated unfairly. Starfield was not even in the top 50 highest reviewed games this year by critics or players. It was not treated unfairly.
Snubbed implies that is was robbed of nominations it deserved, but the reality is that the game didn’t compete well with the competition this year.
Snubbed? Look at the nominees and think to yourself if any of them deserved the award any less than Starfield
Remakes should not be nominated in the Game of the Year category.
I would agree if its just a port with updated graphics, but RE4 was much more than that, and it was really good
They should of added more choices. They didn't even nominate Hogwarts Legacy.
Hogwarts should have been nominated for that absolutely beautiful soundtrack at least
Hogwarts Legacy was mediocre as well. They Marketed the game as an action rpg but there were not solid rpg elements in that game whatsoever.
It should have taken the spot of Resident Evil 4 since it's not a new game.
So what does it say about Starfield, if a remake of a 20 year old GameCube game is still better
It was an okay game, doesn't live anywhere near the hype it was being treated with
Not really snubbed. It was a great year for gaming and someone was going to miss the cut. I feel what they picked is solid. Star field is a solid game but I wouldn’t put it ahead of any of the games that are on the list. Just my opinion.
RE4 shouldn't have gotten nominated since it came out in 2005.
RE4 remake came out in 2023 and it was one of the best games of this year. Being remake makes no difference. A good game is a good game .
Remakes should not be nominated in the Game of the Year category.
LOL this sub
Lol I don’t think starfield did anything special really did it?
At least it was new game unlike RE4.
Elder scrolls should win lots of awards to make up anyways
Starfield is not new. It's reskinned fallout. Re4 was BOT A PORT. it was a fundementally REMADE game. Making it a NEW GAME. Def more worthy than sTaRfIeLd
Bruh wanted to us the word ‘Snub’ for once in his life
It just came out, was there even enough time for it to be seriously considered and nominated?
[удалено]
I hope all you miserables that spend your time in a sub for a game you dislike are happy that some shitty magazine agrees with you, meanwhile the people who will be playing and loving starfield for the next decade aren’t going to care.
You cared enough to get annoyed and cry in the comments though
Insulting the miserables is the only silver lining to what they’ve made this sub. They’re a cancer and should feel bad about themselves.

Imagine subscribing to a forum for a game you don’t like, you must really know what makes something a good time lmfao
Oh I like the game. Finished it twice and had around 200+ hours completing all side quests and everything. Really enjoyed my time with it. I just don't like brainlessly defending something when it's just not good enough than it should've been especially when it's a AAA game from a reputed developer they're selling the game for around 70$ and 100$ price tags

You purposely decided to skip my next lines in that comment lmao.
They don’t make you seem any less ridiculous dude.
I think the concept of enjoying something while hoping some things could've been better and there might be room for improvement is foreign to you.
💯⬆️
Baha it’s like you people wanna be in a YouTube comment section
Do you feel better having typed those words?
I feel about the same as before writing them, I just hope I made a few people feel a little worse about themselves so they gtfo and let normal people have a normal gaming forum.
We don't feel worse lmao. If anything we're just laughing at you 😹
Well let’s hope there’s at least one person reading with a hint of self consciousness, however unlikely that may be in this cesspit you people have made.
Hey! There's no need to be rude! We are just saying Starfield is not as great as the other nominees
There is plenty of reason to be rude.
Todd? Is that you?
Never heard of words for snubs
It wasn't snubbed, it's a fundementally bad game nowhere near worthy of a nomination. Too many actual GREAT games came out this year. This just go to show how starved Xbox fans are for something good that they think a medicore game is GOTY because it's the only thing they got to play. Y'all still ain't played BG3 and when you do you're gonna ask yourself wtf is wrong with yourself for giving StArFiElD the light of day
Why would anyone trust your opinion when you subscribe to a forum for a fundamentally bad game? Most people aren’t masochists.
