2014 must've been a terrible year for dragon age inquisition to win it

The nominees at the GMAs were:

Dragon Age: Inquisition – BioWare

Bayonetta 2 – PlatinumGames

Dark Souls II – FromSoftware

Hearthstone – Blizzard Entertainment

Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor – Monolith Productions

I think it's going to be common from now on that the year following the release of a new console gen is going to come with some meh games in the following year as good games take longer to produce.

Those are the 2014 games, the year after the release of the PS4/Xbox One, and in 2021, the year after the release of the PS5/Xbox Series, it was:

It Takes Two – Hazelight Studios / Electronic Arts

Deathloop – Arkane Studios / Bethesda Softworks

Metroid Dread – MercurySteam / Nintendo

Psychonauts 2 – Double Fine / Xbox Game Studios

Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart – Insomniac Games / Sony Interactive Entertainment

Resident Evil Village – Capcom

Psychonauts 2 was robbed and I'll die on that hill.
