Indiana Jones would've been a GOTY contender if not for timing
Briefly

The Game Awards has a cutoff date for eligibility - Nov. 22 this year. To qualify for consideration, games must be publicly available by a date in mid-to-late November.
Indiana Jones and the Great Circle was released on Dec. 9 to immediate acclaim. Eurogamer gave it a rare five-star rating; PC Gamer said it 'joins Batman Arkham and Goldeneye in the god tier of licensed games'.
It's not just guesswork to say that Indiana Jones and the Great Circle would almost certainly have been nominated for TGA's top Game of the Year award.
Metacritic is a very strong indicator of success at The Game Awards; its ratings are derived by polling a broad range of international review outlets, which is similar to how TGA's voting jury works.
