This should be self-evident from the title, but I'm curious if the community would like to create an award listing and maybe some categories for games that we believe should be recognized and praised.
Considering that game journos are all Leftist pinko trash who should be helicoptered to the nearest volcano as the enemies of the people, and are at the very best: best a bunch of worthless bio-lenninst failures who's only goal in life is to be nothing more than corporate cock-sleeves using access-journalism to gatekeep themselves into positions of narcissistic self-importance within a giant incestuous harem of degeneracy and corporate cuckoldry, of which, even the light & majesty of God can not re-moralize. Given all that, we should probably just rely on our own experiences to disseminate the valuable human capital of what is, and is not, a shitty game.
Given that there is not much in the way of anti-Leftist gaming institutions, and given that any institution that is not explicitly anti-Leftist is destined to be subverted by Leftism, I was thinking that we could serve as an anti-Leftist platform that could give praise and attention to game developers as an anti-parallel institution to Leftists.
If you want, I can offer up some categories and an electoral process that I think would work and would prevent fraud, corruption, and brigading. I'll leave my ideas in the comments, but I'd like your input on if we should undergo such an award system.
Golden "joystick" but it's been up Ana Valens' ass.
You're welcome.
This joke is a reference to the insane "I played Fall Guys with a dildo in me" article
Oh man, we should totally have a demerit category: The Zoe Quinn award for most Hotdog-down-a-hallway developer who slept their way to influence.
I don't think anyone other than her would be in contention.
As for demerit awards...
The Golden Pooh for most subservient to the CCP - Everyone will give it to Epic though.
The (insert whichever radfem name here you want) award for most blatant feminist propaganda of the year - Lots of options here.
The "Gamers are dead" award for shittiest gaming journalism of the year - PC Gamer "incel review of TLOU2" is my pick, honestly.
The Brand™ award for most pathetic virtue signal - Soyny. There isn't even another option in my opinion.
Maybe.
I like this one.
"The White Feather Award", a reference to when Feminists were shaming men for not enlisting in WW1.
There just has to be one like that, though I think that award might go to the biggest journalistic media blitz of the year. How about shittiest article gets the "Kotaku Classic" award?
The "Consoom Brand" award.
White Feather Award is good.
Wouldn't that just be a list of TDS, because that was the overarching theme of literally every media article of 2020.
Kotaku Classic award is too basic. What about some kind of learn to code joke?
Edit : Gone Home award for most overrated piece of shit game.
There's plenty of competition yet. You never know.
The topic of initial comment of this thread deserves it's own category:
The crossed wires award - For the most egregious personal fetishes forcibly inserted into your professional writing.
Not a bad idea, tbh.
Oh god, you're not even joking, are you?
I am not. I'm sure you could find it if you searched.
Ana Valens is an MTF game journo who writes primarily about what makes his dick twitch. Basically a total fucking perv, but because he gobbled some estrogen pills, he gets write about his masturbatory habits and call it journalism.
Seriously: https://www.dailydot.com/author/ana-valens/
Scroll through these headlines and count how many you see that basically boil down to 'Here's what I've been jacking it to this week'.
He straps a fleshlight to his stomach so he can get off by humping the air.
