I think Celeste and Hollow Knight are superior to any AAA game released last year to be honest.
I found RDR2 and God of War guilty of the overly cinematic approach I find worn out and boring, even though they are obviously some of the best in their categories. I don't really care for games that play like hollywood blockbusters. Whatever one might think of the story, the aesthetics, narrative, script and voice acting is just silly.
