Lmao I can't believe they gave TLOU2 so much. Most of them were obvious locks, and it deserved them. The only two that actually mattered (other than Action Adventure but that was a relatively weak field) were Direction and Game. Narrative was iffy but not really a strong contender to oppose it. Its a great game that achieves a lot for sure. But its just more of the same - more crunch, more AAA action adventures winning it. Hades was such a great alternative, and I doubt there will be one that strong for a while. Well, see you next year when BOTW2 takes it all. --- I just decided to change this sig.

Hades deserved to win at least a few of those but there is something delicious about the game that the gamers hated getting the most accolades at the gamer show.

Hades freaking revolutionized the entire rogue-lite genre and is far and away the most creative installment of it ever created and it probably should have gotten some kind of recognition for it. Like it's dumb to get upset over the VGA's, but I feel it should be more of a celebration of games where they could recognize multiple ones instead of one game.

Hades won two awards but they didn't get to make a speech, FF7 and GoT didn't get to speak either. Among Us on the other hand got to make two speeches and TLOU made several. Just poor management on that front imo. Biggest Snubs: Doom Eternal went 0 for 5, Fortnite, Ori, Miles Morales and Valorant went 0 for 3. --- Slowly becoming a Final Fantasy aficionado.

We'll see if that matters. If the next Naughty Game sells equally as well as the TLOU2, or better, then the gamers they 'hate' weren't the ones buying the games anyway.

Yeah TLOU is going to win most people's choice awards. Critics are actually much more likely to not pick TLOU than the popular vote! Just look at the Golden Joysticks, where TLOU won the popular vote and Hades won the Critics' Choice, that is the theme. Indeed of the handful of fan votes so far, the only one TLOU hasn't won was this one, because of a rally. It won't get them all of course, FFVIIR will win GameFAQs and I think Hades will win the Giant Bomb community vote.
Tbh popular votes are usually monumentally stacked in the favour of a handful of the biggest games for obvious reasons so frankly I'd rather the critics even though there's problems there too. --- I just decided to change this sig. Blaaaaaaargh azuarc ... Copied to Clipboard!

Who cares. I watched this for the reveals I thought Tchia looked fine, although it's a clear rip off of Wind Waker Shady Part of Me also looked interesting, and it's already out, but barely any review for this so I don't know Ghosts n Goblins Resurrection looked good as a remake but is it needed? I thought it's a timeless classic that doesn't need one. Like the original Super Mario Bros Capcom Arcade Stadium being free means..what exactly? that you download the arcade and it acts as a hub but every other game cost money? huh. It's unclear The Mario World ad is the weirdest one I have seen from Nintendo lately. and it didn't even show anything new so..meh --- wololo ... Copied to Clipboard!

There were plenty of announcements that were, in theory, big. And some indie games I will very likely check out (wish PS4/5 put games on the store earlier so I could wishlist them like steam does, easy for indies to get lost in the shuffle.)
But...nothing big was announced that I really cared about whatsoever. Only exception was Mass Effect, a CG trailer with nothing in it that was announced weeks ago. The biggest announcement at the show for me, no joke, was a date for the console version of Disco Elysium. --- ACAB ... Copied to Clipboard!
