Backloggd GOTY Event Thing 2010-2023

Basically, since Backloggd doesn't make the event for all the past years and I don't wanna wait for them to get there I'm gonna make my own in the form of a list. Categories for each year go as followed: GOTY, Best Gameplay, Best Narrative, Best Art Direction, Best Soundtrack, and Best Multiplayer and then I move on to the next year obviously.
