There are certain words or terms that we try to avoid when writing reviews for games. We won’t waste your time printing them all here, but phrases like “love letter” etc. are just so cringeworthy to a writer we avoid them at all costs.

So why was the game snubbed in every sound category nomination for The Game Awards? Your guess is as good as ours.
