Ah, there are the Kojima gloves. Alright, we're done here.Plot was crazy in Death Stranding. Funny, but crazy. Kojima style.
Yea I don't get why only Animal Crossing gets that distinction.Every game released this year helped people doing quarantines, this narrative that only AC did is annoying.
What a disappointing list. Why no Alyx, or Ori, or Flight Simulator, or something unique like Factorio? Mostly more homogenized AAA spectacles.
I know nobody is really talking about best streamer nomination but come on.. they have do better with that list imo...
Yep. Albeit those are the two games I played that are nominated for GOTY but I'm rooting for them. i am expecting a TLOU2 win though.
Aside from that, gaming has been a form of escapism many many many years prior to the pandemic.Every game released this year helped people doing quarantines, this narrative that only AC did is annoying.
Laura was fine, but Ashley deserves it 100%. One of best performance from a video game I have seen.All I really care about is that Laura Bailey wins Best Performance because 1. she deserves it and 2. it'll piss the right people off.
Ace Combat 7 released in 2019.
Sadly you're right, but it shouldn't be. The Academy awards do a good job of nominating and promoting lesser known films instead of just going with the most popular. I wish the game industry was more mature.It's a popularity contest. Alyx would have a chance if vr stuff wasn't so expensive. The other 3 are just niche, no matter how good they are.
It's more that the interconnective nature of the game helped people who were experiencing social isolation during COVID. People held birthday parties, holiday gatherings, and other events in game with family and friends during a time when they couldn't (and still can't) have them in person. And for people with a lot of time and no structure due to stay at home orders, the daily tasks helped people bring some routine back into their lives. So while other games like TLOUII or Hades certainly provided escapism in the same way any game might, I do think ACNH should get some credit for just how much of a great game it is for the moment we are in.Every game released this year helped people doing quarantines, this narrative that only AC did is annoying.
I absolutely love her. But ehhhhhh.. I just don't feel her being nominated in the list at all. Just not feeling it overall. Also, content creator is basically streamers. These nominations are all streamers too (not sure about Jay). Overall, I think Valkyrie deserves this due to her blowing up with insane amount of views for the past few months.It might help if you read the nomination properly. It is not "best streamer."
This feels needlessly toxic. What is your issue?
We did the same thing with Zoom calls for birthday hangouts, playing games like Jackbox, hosting digital trivia, etc.It's more that the interconnective nature of the game helped people who were experiencing social isolation during COVID.

They promote 'lesser known films' when the studios behind them fund enormous 'For Your Consideration' ad campaigns. If a TGA GOTY started carrying the same weight as a Best Picture Oscar (ie, an entire corner of the industry is pathologically obsessed with winning one) - you'd start seeing the same effects.Sadly you're right, but it shouldn't be. The Academy awards do a good job of nominating and promoting lesser known films instead of just going with the most popular. I wish the game industry was more mature.
I'm not sure it'd get nominated anyways. It's a remake. The gameplay is basically unchanged. Not sure slapping better graphics (and worse art) on an old game gets you nominated in many categories.So why is Demon's Souls totally absent, but AC Valhalla is nominated for action adventure? I don't quite understand what the eligibility criteria is
To be the fair, the oscars does much better with nominees most of the times then TGA.We have to keep in mind that The Game Awards are the same as the Oscars, for better and for worse. They represent a very concrete, specific and limited vision of the medium.
And some "token nominees".

No, according to the devs their team peaked at 30 during development, though that has probably changed since the game blew upIsn't the team behind Fall Guys huge? Surprised to see it in the indie section.
I have a very strong negative reaction to everything brah. That's how I react in forums and social media hahahaha.But why?
You had a very strong negative reaction to her nomination. Why?
Judging from last year, there won't be an on-stage moment for VR (timestamped for 2:40:10).No Alyx there is sad. Geoff Keighley you better get GabeN to go on stage and announce something when he accepts the VR award

FFVII would take basically every category it's nominated in for me.
But realistically, I hope it wins best score. The music was so much better than anything else this year by a long shot.
Perhaps if you only take the plot outline in written form. (But wouldn't agree here either.)I'd 100% consider last of us the stronger narrative personally.
The real travesty is that 13 sentinels didn't get a nom for art direction. It's such a gorgeous game that it weirds me out it's not there.
