It was trash. Had a good smattering of “mah representation”, boring announcements, back handed comments to some winners, and a shit ton of ads. Probably more ads than award ceremony. Same 6 games were on the majority of the categories and all but two games should have just been removed: Baldur’s Gate 3 and Alan Wake 2. Thankfully, they gave Armored Core 6 best action game. Big announcement was a new Monster Hunter but it’s won’t be out until 2025. Only really watched for the trash talking from StutteringCraig and Yellowflash.

The fact that BG3 won game of the year ircs me. I realize it is a decent game but I see so many people praise that crap story and ignore all the woke stuff, even in kia and kia2
SyntheticMan is right. A lot of modern gamers deserve this garbage, because they keep supporting it, knowing what it is. Woke, globalist propaganda, the same titles rehashed every year with a new number on it, DRM, always online, micro transactions, etc.
They are either blind to it or know it exists and just tone it out. After all, this is the first generation that had to put up with it in schools. They mastered the art of lying about it and ignoring it.
This is exactly what the globalists want.
Some have mentioned it before that this was always the plan -- we were never the intended targets for this overt propaganda. The current generation of people recognise it as agitprop.
The next generation will grow up in a society where this is all they know, and anyone who stands against the agitprop will be the pariah.
Except this generation will be home schooling or private schooling. Major upticks in both where the parents have a bigger say in the schooling they want. Also, less people having kids won’t help the status quo too (if it’s to be believed.)
That's true, but it's a band aid on a large gaping wound.
We also know that the establishment hates it when you step outside of their predictive programming institution. We've already seen how some are looking to step in and penalise homeschooling to keep kids within the circle of corruption.
Hilarious that it won. It's so typical of Lyrain to make its "good stuff" front loaded in act 1 but then make its later half just combat linear moment after moment. Then also Act 3 of Baulders Gate 3 a buggy and poorly optimized mess. I seem to recall another RPG that was buggy at launch and got flogged.
The first act was good, not going to lie. It was not perfect, still had a few plot holes and I could not have a proper resolution on the refugee stuff but it is what it is, it was enjoyable.
Act 3 is retarder, the story itself breaks apart so fast, I admit that close to the end I just uninstalled it so maybe there are some revelations at the end that I missed. The entire line with the prince of the comet turning in to a mindflayer was so so stupid. Just released from prison, uber powerfull and he was like our only solution is me turning in to a mind flayer?!?? what kind of stupid shit was that? After that scene I just uninstalled the game.
Also the plan from the retarded 3 was use this crown that has the power of a god by giving it to one of the most intelligent beings in the world so it can attack the city and we get to rescue it !?!! Who thought that was a good idea?
In BG1 it made sense since there was no crown and the point of the plot was so that it can go to war with Amn and create enough murder to become the next lord of murder. In BG3 it was just memberberries and force in the most idiotic way possible the story from BG1.
And when did the lore change on mindflayers? Ceremorphosis was not an X-men type mutation is was an entire different being that just absorbed the memories and turned in to a monster, more like the Goa'uld from star gate, it was not a slave of an elder brain either. Did they change that in 5'th just to accommodate the stupid story?
Please tell me I'm wrong :( I just refuse to believe that something that was so poorly written won game of the year.
One more point, did it explain why the gay devil dude had the crown and did nothing with it and traded it to the retarded one of Bane? That made 0 sense.
The main problem is that D&D is overrun with turbofaggots.
So typical Lyrain studios stuff then. Both D:OS1 and 2 had garbage 3ed acts which almost made me give up on the game entirely.
Your spelling really irks me.
Understandable, it ircs me as well
Any game that gets the masses praising it for every little thing it doesn't fuck up repulses me immediately as it's guaranteed to be overhyped. There is no bigger red flag than reddit drooling over some title like it's game of the century. If they hate it, it's likely to be pretty solid.
Yes.
It should have been TOTK ultimately, but the fact Hogwarts Legacy wasn't even nominated for anything despite how well it did should tell you everything you need to know about how much political bullshit was going on here.
That was most of this years nominations, therefore it would have fit right in. We all know why it wasn't nominated.
Game came out at the start of the year so it has been 10 months or so. It was all anyone talked about for like month or so until most people beat it and moved on to other stuff, same as what happens will basically ALL single player games without dlc announcements. Spiderman 2 came out to even less fanfare than that and was forgotten faster and was still nominated for stuff including GOTY (LMFAO). Hell, did anyone even know Alan Woke 2 was a thing before it was nominated? Nobody I talked to even knew it existed before the Game Awards, but somehow that got a GOTY nomination?
I never said it should be GOTY, I specifically called out that it wasn't nominated for ANYTHING. Which is really quite odd. I am not even complaining it didn't win anything, its the fact it wasn't even NOMINATED speaks volumes to me.
I'm gonna need something backing up that claim. Its a good Harry Potter game that lets you attend Hogwarts, of course it sold massive numbers.
Pick one narrative and stick to it please. It's almost like you have never encountered Harry Potter fans and how "passionate" they can be. There is a less than 0 % chance that nobody voted for it.
I haven't played so someone who has feel free to correct me, but it looks like the reason "critics" like BG3 so much because it is really degenerate, like faggots and trannies everywhere.
Don’t forget the gay bestiality!
To an extent. It signals the correct degenerate virtues. You can pointlessly customize dong size, but not boob size.
They also beat the women with the ugly stick for no reason which western devs have an absolute hard on for now.
Same reason why they love the way The Last of Us is now
The "Indie Debut" award went to a game with a developer who's made at least two other games. Pizza Tower got robbed.
I would argue that if your "indie game" gets to debut on consoles, it was never an indie game at all.
You don't get on PSN or eShop without someone pushing you and your unfinished thing to decision makers.
I honestly think they were going to give it to Dave the Diver but the developers were adamant they weren’t indie.
Wait, cocoon won indie debut??
I guess the idea is to reinforce the identity of “the studio” rather than the actual developers who make the games. Wouldn’t want normies waking up to the reality that all of their favorite “studios” are staffed with woke diversity replacements who had nothing to do with the old games we loved.
Lies of P losing best art direction to Alan Wake fucking 2 was pretty gay. Obviously all award shows are a farce but they’re fun to complain about.
Yeah, but all those World Premiers! You can play so many games with a brown woman protagonist (probably a lesbian)! What more could you want?

Half the awards I don't even understand what they are lauding.
Just write it off as leftist gibberish and move on.
I was going to have it on for free Twitch drops, but didn't give a shit enough to watch.
THAT'S how much I value it, free shit can't make me even have it on in the background.
Was the free shit even worth it? I tried the drops when it started and found the stuff just boring so I started ignoring it.
Depends on which games, some are just tedious like Smite having to have 4 hours of viewership to get some dam tokens
Others are worth it at times like getting a unique skin or character for free.
This is why the game industry is in the state it is.
Quit being willing to put up with this shit. It wasn't always this way.
This. I play Sea of Thieves and refuse to watch some faggot on twitch for hours to get a new spyglass skin.
The guys I play with are like "I just let it run in the background and don't pay attention". I'm not going to participate in that farce. I'm not sure how people are profiting from this, but someone is getting money from all this fake viewership.
It also feeds into this gay "internet personality/influencer" culture that is so toxic to our society. I refuse to contribute to some 40-year-old soy boy faggot living in his parent's basement and playing video games as an occupation. Or worse: help that same fag make more money than people with honest jobs.
I also recently found out that people are reselling this shit on eBay for like 50 Twitch items for $2, so even if I really cared about that stuff and had to have it, I would rather spend a tiny amount of money than spend hours fake watching people on Twitch.
Want to know the piss take about these skins and characters? I guarantee you they probably spent 10 minutes maximum on these items/skins people are paying for. Devs who make money off this are laughing all the way to the bank.
Well since most of them are color palate changes and not even texture changes you don't even need 10 mins.
I'm on a freemium spree, I haven't bought dlc in years i think the last one was Fallout 4 or Witcher 3 so yeah that long ago, if it's not included with the original game price I don't get it.
As for that, I already have Amazon Prime so try to milk as much for the service as possible.
I'm super excited about the new MH, that was the only announcement I cared about, and I knew a newer, bigger MHW was coming, didn't know it would be MHWilds for another generation of MHW acronyms...
I tried to watch the Game Awards but I mean it was just miserable dogshit almost for the entirety of it, so I saw about MH this morning.
You forgot
But yeah the only good thing in this shitshow was Nintendo taking a massive L, and Armored Core finally winning a well deserved award.
There's a tiny chance Exodus turns out good, but zero gameplay in the trailer is a major red flag.
I thought it was awesome. It was just reveal after reveal and it kept going. No political bullshit. And I know it was good because mainstream websites have up articles complaining about it. One said winners didn't get enough time to speak, which I'm glad. Others said he should have addressed layoffs but fuck that. You get laid off if people don't buy your game, no reason to bring everyone down. Another site was pissed he didn't talk about Gaza. Hilarious
Sure, the kojima segment was dumb. But I thought it was fantastic overall and journalists seething at it this morning only convinces me more
It's weird to think Screw Attack messed up so bad Stuttering Craig had to run away.
