I'd bet my entire life savings (about $3) that a bunch of hogs made a concentrated effort to get the Blood Libel Game(TM) nominated. There's no chance it wins against BG or LC but its still bizarre to see
also Starfield got a nom for "Most Innovative Gameplay" 
I'm not saying it deserved to win but Armored Core 6 deserved to be nominated
When their game isn't explicitly a souls From gets snubbed like it's 2006 again, bullshit
I am baffled how from software still makes the games they make. There is zero loot boxes, always online, games-as-a-service bullshit and not a single fucking micro transaction in their whole incredible lineup. The scummiest thing they did was a half assed remaster of DS1 that replaced the original Prepare-to-Die edition, which sucked but in a world of EAs, Blizzards, Ubisofts and Bethesdas I can't really stay mad.
Hundreds of furious consultants must have pointed at big excel sheets projecting the millions they'd make on the Malenia Armour DLC, but they just keep saying no. They just make a real game and people buy it and then they make another game. It feels truly anachronistic.
From was not involved in Dark Souls Remastered from what I know
Also it seems like underpaying and overworking their employees has something to do with their success...
