Game awards show 2020

Live in 7 hours. Tune in here:

YouTube

Besides the GOTY and such, there will be some other game announcements. Including "Le me smash bruv"

I predict interactive drama, 'Sad Girl' will be the game of the year.
Hoping for Eternal to win the Soundtrack award at least.

I bet on that nobody cares.

Would be funny if some newly released games would participate or even win here *cough* Cyberpunk *cough*.

even without the last delay, cyberpunk wouldn't have made the cutoff

predicts:
ghost of tsushima will win game of the year, even though it belongs to Dreams (which wasn't nominated)
doomguy will (unfortunately) be the next smash character

Big thinking emoji

I mean it would be deserved given how quick they are to address and implement community feedback. As opposed to Fall Guys which blew its momentum in the first month and Apex which just kinda doesn't exist?

I can't believe Shinji Mattou got his own band

December 10, 2020, 06:44:58 PM

HL:Alyx should get some kind of nod at least. It really pushed the fold on smoothing out things for VR and showing what a properly designed VR game could be.

You guys tell me once this over who won what, ok?

TLoU2 swept hard, winning game of the year, best narrative, best game direction, best audio design, innovation in accessibility, and best action/adventure, with Laura Bailey winning best performance (7 out of the 11 categories it was nominated in).

Meanwhile:
- Ghost of Tsushima won best art direction and player's voice (would've been TLoU2, but /v/ rigged the polls)
- Hades won best indie game and best action game
- FF7 Remake won best RPG and best score/music
- Among Us won best mobile game and best multiplayer game (despite being released in 2018)
- Tell Me Why won games for impact
- No Man's Sky won best ongoing game
- Fall Guys won best community support
- Half-Life Alyx won best VR game
- MK11 won best fighting game
- Animal Crossing won best family game
- Microsoft Flight Sim won best simulation game
- Tony Hawk won best sports game
- Phasmophobia won best debut game
- Elden Ring won most anticipated game
- Valkyrae won content creator of the year

Is Elden Ring really that hyped? I thought Cyberpunk would've been on the list, although I guess it launched recently so that might explain it.

i mean, it's a collab between the dark souls guy and the game of thrones guy, so not too surprising imo

that said, i did expect it to go to botw2, but i'm biased

Glad to see HL Alyx getting the best VR game award. It is a blast to play and the Index is a great headset.

Jono · December 11, 2020, 04:00:54 AM

Yeah I don't know about that Mass Effect: Will Continue title name /s

Wow TLOU2 won GOTY and pretty much everything else
Who saw that coming

Just sad Doom got absolutely shafted

FatherlyNick - fuck putin · December 11, 2020, 01:06:31 PM

Sad Girl > Angry Boi

According to game awards.
Interactive dramas should have their own show tbh.

Ehnsanity · December 11, 2020, 01:41:11 PM

Only award worth mentioning went to GOT, the rest of the rewards are shill critics voting on the company that paid them the most/ threatened them the most with legal action.

TLoU2 was winning player's voice until the pissbabies at reddit /v/ and twitter caught wind of it

they all voted for a game that haven't played and don't care about just to pwn SJWs, not because GoT deserved it

not that GoT isn't great, but the circumstances in which it won are mega cringe and make me happy that TLoU2 won everything else, because watching transphobes and epic gamers seethe is hilarious

Ingy · December 13, 2020, 02:49:48 AM

I've been thinking about this and why aren't all the categories player choice

I mean it's who the games were meant for

Instead we have people like the guy who couldn't beat the Cuphead tutorial voting on awards

Mmmmm Napalm · December 13, 2020, 05:43:29 AM

I feel like TLoU2 didn't do anything well or innovatively enough to win all the awards that it did.

big dog · December 13, 2020, 07:17:22 AM

As funny as it is to see gamers malding over TLOU2, any game whose direction led to extreme crunch conditions should not be getting a "Best Game Direction" award.
