Quality has nothing to do with a game being a remake or something new though.
Remakes are still rehashes of things we already had in another form. These games should not be up for GOTY votes. Resident Evil 2 might be an amazing game but still, it's "just" a remake. It's even worse when games like Zelda Links Awakening are considered GOTY candidates. These games already had their time and they are still great games but I don't consider them GOTY candidates no matter how well they are made.
I didn't say DS was garbage, I haven't played it and have no opinion about it. I was pointing out unique means nothing in relation to quality regarding your implication it's the obvious choice just because its different which is an outright fallacy.
Complaining about some games being too "safe" to be considered GOTY is such an insulting take that shows just how little you understand what goes into making one of these games. Nothing that requires millions and millions of dollars and the coordination of hundreds of talented people across numerous disciplines is "easy" or "safe" to pull off. See the countless other games over the years that even with a big budget ended anywhere from middling to terrible. All of these games take a shit ton of effort to make, and can end up poor for any number of reasons. Regardless of whether the game has an original story or not, it's a miracle when any game comes together into as compelling an experience as RE2 Remake did.
Don't worry, the extremely well designed video game will lose to the overhyped cinematic masterpiece seeking attention from the movie industry and The Gamers that want to be taken seriously.
Resident Evil 2 remake is probably the second safest game I can think of right after FFVII remake, lol.
I disagree enormously with the FF7R take
You're conflating two different things:
Just seems like you don't know a lot about game design, my man
Honest question, have you played the game?Just seems like you don't know a lot about game design, my man
But tbh i don't blame you, most people that write in this industry don't know either and that's why shit like Death Stranding gets so much praise
Man you are even more salty than I initially thought.Just seems like you don't know a lot about game design, my man
But tbh i don't blame you, most people that write in this industry don't know either and that's why shit like Death Stranding gets so much praise
I did
The boldest of takes, a true legend of the gaming forums
That is surprising considering how much you seem to despise Kojima.
I don't really despise Kojima, i just think he likes the taste of his own dick a bit too much, just like his fans.
Oh shit. That's why when I saw some playing it on YouTube it looked different. I kept saying I don't remember this from the original..
Exactly. I have a list of 20+ years I haven't played from 2019 and sounds really great
Yup.
Hope Death Stranding wins more so we have more glorious meltdowns like this :lol
Kojima really brings out the shitbirds like these. "I am angry you are enjoying games that I don't like". Grow up.
Bullshit. Nice try though. Death Stranding is a game of the generation contender. Watching someone play for a few minutes on YouTube or playing for 30 minutes to justify your shit talk doesn't count. I'm willing to bet you did not buy and play through the game (like many of the haters on this forum). Death Stranding also has more perfect scores than any other game this year, by the way (since you brought up reviews). So yup, it's game of the year for sure. Salty haters won't be able to handle this amazing game winning the most awards, unfortunately.
It's so obvious that people are giving it awards left and right just to mess with you right? Even ignoring that you haven't really said anything about the game to make it "obvious", have you consider that people might like a game you don't? And 82 is the average, the game has a lot of 10/10 scores on metacritic

People gotta come up with whatever reasoning they can to justify their gaming preferences
