I agree it’s a wonderful game and it deserves recognition, but I also agree it’s not as good as BG3. The thing is, that doesn’t detract from any of it’s awards this year because it was only competing with the games that came out in 2025, not the ones that came out in 2023.
Had BG3 and Clair Obscura come out at the same time, I think the split in awards would have been very different.
