Their, not his.
And yes, after beeing bought and forced to make multiplayer looter shooter instead of their speciality, which is immersive sims.

A-Life issues aside I think they're right. GSC really delivered and this game is going to be something else once it gets some spit n polish.

Sony? It's Microsoft that inherited the project from Buying ZniMax/Bethesda/Arkhane but let it go to end without any check.

Stalker 2 is no goty otherwise, too much a clone of previous game, too many too empty area, abuse of extreme dark and too short range torch, abuse of invisibility, very low quality of combats with enemies without guns (animals and others), lack of fun activities to fill the world. The dev was clearly paralyzed to try make anything new, and ended in making a clone or remake.

He won't decide that though, so copers gonna cope? lol

A game with zero innovation, mid story, broken AI system (A Life), game breaking bugs and 2010 mechanics will never be GOTY.
Game is not bad, but its nothing special.

Its my GOTY, but that's because it ticks the list and scratches the itch. I like a certain kind of game, and STALKER 2 just clicks. Does it needs fixes and balances? Good god yes, but its still a lot of fun!

[Buck D. Bumble (Sero)]

Its not bad, its not great. It certainly is not GOTY.
Half the game is not functioning, features are missing from previous installments, nothing new was added, lack of variety in every aspect of the game, quests, loot, monsters, armor, weapons, food, meds, environments, artifacts, anomalies, tilesets, buildings closed and empty, etcetcetcetcetcetcetcetcetc.

Unfinished Games dont deserve an Award. And Perople who use the Word Hate for this should seek professional Help.

Yep, very easy GOTY.

Smart man.

You wouldn't dare to bet 60 bucks with me, or are you coping enough to gamble some money with me?

It won't be GOTY cause it released a bit too late for that but it will probably be GOTY next year if they manage to fix the economy.

That's not how it works. Goty only counts for current year releases.
