What's with the article holding up a bunch of unknown mid-rated games as stars of the genre while never mentioning award winners like hollow knight and others?

I was surprised by the focus on Ultros, but not Animal Well. That game is already one of the genre’s hallmarks. I liked Ultros, but know it’s not for everyone. Animal Well isn’t as traditional an entry, but a smash hit.
