Not only did Baldur's Gate 3 win Game of the Year and shadow drop its Xbox version, but it also won Best Community Support, Best RPG, Best Multiplayer, and the Player's Voice category. Alan Wake 2 followed with 3 wins in the categories of Best Game Direction, Best Narrative, and Best Art Direction.

Congratulations to Larian! Their love for making Baldur's Gate 3 really did shine at the awards.

What is player voice about? The quality of Tav's voice?

I'm honestly surprised BG3 nabbed this one. To me the voices sound too similar. I'm missing a gravelly voice for half orcs and dragonborn. Or a sassy voice. Or a cute voice.

They had much more variety in the old games. In the German version they even had one with a silly dialect.

Player's Voice is the category that is 100% determined by player votes on the best game of the year, not the voice work.

That makes much more sense, thanks.
