Does this means we can move on to the last categories?

Animated Film of the Year: Kubo and the Two Strings.
I came to nominate this. Glad I didn't have to~
While the end of the movie was a disappointment, the stop motion animation and music was oh so gorgeous. -

For the record, Zootopia is getting my vote. But I really liked Finding Dory as well and thought it deserved a nod, since someone else was likely to nominate Zootopia.
-
Kubo and Zootopia were the only ones I honestly thought deserving. I haven't seen a few though, like Moana.

Implying Dory won't beat Zootopia? surely you jest :ninja:

C'mon. Panda deserves a mention for having its whole trilogy still maintain some quality throughout. Even if Zootopia will obviously win.
-
It's a tie between Zootopia and Kubo for me. Cute bunny against awesome ape.
Finding Dorie turned me into a miserable puddle of tears though (damn this seashell). And had an awesome octopus. Shit…
-
Anyone who doesn't think Zootopia has this on lock is WRONG.
Which isnt to say there weren't a lot of great animated films this year, and Kung Fu Panda 3 and Finding Dory are totally two of them.
But Zootopia is an excellent film in a sea of great ones. So, yeah, I'll be shocked if it doesn't win, because it really was a fine movie.
-
Somebody save Arrival from appearing on only the Worst Movie list. That movie is a treasure and doesn't belong there, and definitely would be my Best nom if Hell or High Water wasn't a perfect movie that exists.
Oh, I wish I had seen this. I really liked Arrival.
-
Thanks to whoever nominated Overwatch before I got here. I missed the timing because I was asleep after staying up all night playing Overwatch :ninja:
Wish I had played more games. Owlboy for sure I still want to get to.
Also surprised no one loved Final Fantasy XV enough. OH well.

Best Game:
Rise of the Tomb Raider: 20 Year Celebration(sorry, port of a 2015 game) Uncharted 4: A Thief's EndI was waiting for an Uncharted 4 nomination lol.
-
I thought it already happened, and when it didn't I was pretty freaking shocked, lol.
-
I didn't know Overwatch came out this year. I've never actually played the game, but I have it to thank for so many hilarious YouTube videos
-
Yay, Hyper Light Drifter. There's another game I have wanted to get into that I haven't yet. Same goes for Furi.
-
Overwatch vs SM, let's gooooooo
-
my one vote for dragon quest will go far i swear it
-
I love Sun and Moon. As a whole playing Pokemon last year, anticipating it, and even still playing it now and getting merchandise and all these other things have helped keep me afloat (more or less) during shitty shitty times.
But myself aside, I just cannot ignore the massive, massive uptake of both Overwatch and Pokemon Go. Overwatch is that game I heard everyone in the industry talking about, and getting to play it I discover why that's the case, from mechanics that make characters interesting and entertaining to play, things like play of the game and highlights making you feel like a pro, and then there's awesome awesome bits like the characters having voice lines in their languages and the game's cast actually being fairly diverse and treated with respect. Instead of the classic over the top stereotypes from fighting games.
And then there's Pokemon Go, which I myself don't like, but I cannot ignore the fact that for the span of a month I kept hearing stuff from people IN REAL LIFE that I thought I'd only hear from NPCs in pokemon games. Adults in a microsoft bus talking about catching a nidoran… people walking in droves to parks because there's a fucking cloyster. The snob in me got triggered in part from hearing people who know jack shit about games trying to explain things like Pidgeys and Spearows to me... but every time I think back I just cannot believe the world was actually united that hard by just one phone game.

Not sure if Noqanky is trying to sway votes here. I played two matches of Overwatch, the guy that throws shuriken's was pretty good.
I feel Pokemon Go is at such a baby state, compared to the madness I imagine in my head with that game.

Merely explaining what comes to mind when I'm thinking about game of the year. Namely titles that took games further or just had sizable impact on the industry as a whole. As a whole I assume people will just vote for what they played and liked, which is fine, but I still do enjoy talking about the greater impact of games.
For Overwatch, I don't think I got into the swing of things until multiple matches after I had figured out what each character is for and the different maps and modes and how they work.
For Pokemon Go, I'm not exactly sure what you mean. -
Kugo's ability to cut inanimate objects and rewrite their history during the Fullbringer arc would be my second nomination for worst moment.

That's Tsukishima.
I might be alone in this but he was the only thing I loved about the Fullbring Arc.
-
Tsukishima has made it possible for the terrible Fullbring arc to transcend into another dimension of quality unquantifiable by human standards. Everything that came before and after just can't rival the pure entrtainment of awfulness.

- And your way with words was swaying my vote. I agree with what you say, I wish I had played more of what came out last year.

For Pokemon Go, I'm not exactly sure what you mean.-
I played one small session, got to try two characters and managed to do pretty well with my second pick.

It's hard to say, I am not very well informed with what we can do with the technology. I like the game, collecting, outdoors, there is some battle element to it. Simple and engaging. However, when I think of the later expansions (I assume they are going to keep developing as they release more pokemon.) what are the new features going to be implemented? Those additions is what I am looking forward to the most, and jump in. Imagine you are having a lunch break, your phone buzzes….YOU GOT A DUEL! and then fight. What about Pokemon that are supposed to be big? Why not make raids, have users bring 3 different pokemon. I am not even sure if there is further development being done, which would be sad. On the other hand, if it is not, then I'll just stick to buying Moon and playing pokemon shuffle D:
