I've heard nothing but praise for Half-Life Alyx, so it's kinda surprising not having it being nominated

it was a cultural phenomenon, especially due to all the quarantine stuff that happened around the same time

Yes, I am aware why it was a big deal for a few months. But would it even be discussed as GOTY in literally any other year?
Like, it's almost the last game on this list I would personally shit on, but it's just not really in the usual "GOTY" category.

I would think so. Hades is really good but not as good imo.

Spiritfarer deserves some recognition, even if not GOTY it should earn something for being such a unique and emotional experience.

I had to go check a list of things released in 2020 and realized all the best releases were ports or remasters

yea, I feel like any other year, it wouldn't make this the list, but iirc it's like, the best selling game this year, has some of the highest critical acclaim, has had more mainstream relevancy, etc.

DOOM Eternal, FF7R, Origami King, Curse of the Moon 2, Deadly Premonition 2, Ori 2, Animal Crossing, Yakuza 7, Spelunky 2, Half-Life Alyx, Warzone, Streets of Rage 4, Superliminal, Shantae 5, hell fuck it Ill even include RE3 and Ghost of Tsushima, were all games to find a lot of enjoyment out of, and were still getting Cyberpunk to top it off. I think its been a damn fine year for games all things considered. Honestly every year since 2017 has had so many stellar releases I think were living large tbh.
Almost none of those interested me at all. I think the only games I ended up playing this year were Bloodborne, Dark Souls 3, Monster Hunter, Doki Doki Literature Club, and I just picked up the Zero Escape trilogy. Oh and Crusader Kings 3 came out this year but I haven't picked it up
