The Death Stranding soundtrack was extremely emotionally impactful and came in at the right times to emphasize that impact. Kingdom Hearts 3's soundtrack was mostly orchestrated versions of existing Disney songs and remakes of original songs that already existed in the series. I absolutely love Kingdom Hearts more than anything, but Death Stranding made much better use from the soundtrack than KH3 does and deserved to win something. That game was amazing from a story standpoint. From a gameplay standpoint, I loved it but I could see why others would not. Something you need to play for yourself, because you can't properly feel the atmosphere the game builds by just watching someone play it. Rent it from Gamefly or Red Box, borrow it from a friend, however you need to do it to experience that game for yourself to determine if you think it's worth purchasing and if it's not, at least beat it so you can fully explore the story.
