They have one major paid expansion and a free rework but what else besides that have they done over the last 3 years other than normal patching to warrant a nomination?
Meanwhile, No Man’s Sky is still releasing several major updates with new gameplay elements and changes multiple times a year and all for free. They also set up several expeditions every year. They put the game on PS VR2 and beyond that even went back to it and added foveated rendering to make it even better.
Microsoft Flight Simulator releases multiple major World updates each year which include enhanced scenery in a region, new aircraft and even new content like Discovery Flights and Bush Trips. Like No Man’s Sky these are all done for free.
How do these, and I am sure many other examples, get overlooked because CyberPunk released one major revamp (2.0 update) in three years? That’s not a knock on Cyberpunk because I actually enjoyed the game but I don’t consider it an ongoing game, especially considering that they essentially said that they are done with it after Phantom Liberty, which would make it the opposite on ongoing.

It makes zero sense but these awards truly mean nothing. Looking at all the nominations its clear some poor decisions got made
Maybe because they’re still fixing their shit after releasing it 5 years too early? :p
Yet you think no man’s sky is okay? They could have easily done nothing and let the game stay how it was.
For this category? Yes.
No Man’s Sky has continued to release large content releases for 7 years now. The released 4 major updates in 2023 (Fractal, Interceptor, Singularity, and Echoes). There have been 25 major updates since the release 7 years ago.
They have also released three new expeditions in 2023, bring the total up to 11.
And all this has been free. So yes, I believe it fits this category better than Cyberpunk.
It had a lot of patches and free dlc, the next gen update for the new consoles came out last year, and they released the 2.0 patch and Phantom Liberty this year. They’ve done a lot. Way more support than the average single player game gets
Agree. I’m happy it’s good now and they fixed a ton of glaring issues that the game had, but it doesn’t deserve any awards for anything. The studio fixed their mess, that isn’t praise worthy, that’s expected. The DLC was very good, if they want to award that then it’s something else altogether, but it’s a one and done deal.
