boring

Maybe E33 had weak competition, like Silksong, a game made by 3 people being nominated for game of the year might not be a great sign of the overall competition.

nothing i was interested in, oh well i have so many games to catch up on

A

for Ace Combat 8

Zero / 10

C. The announcements was meh. The awards normally rigged cuz of judges 90% voting power and even tho E33 won alot, still a mid game.

If E33 is mid, what would you consider the other games that participated to be?

Meh. At least they allowed winners to speak longer than they had been. I actually watch for the awards, not the trailers.

The Divinity trailer went hard.

2 out of 10, the only interesting things to me were Divinity and The Forest 3.

Many awards given make no sense. For example, as much as E33 earned GOTY and its actors got their awards well, it is an RPG-lite at best and definitely not an indie game.
This is especially questionable as this was an incredibly strong year for smaller-budget titles - indie and non-indie.
Also F2P titles should be excluded from player-voted stuff, because they often give in-game incentives to players when either voting for or winning these awards.

But nothing new, the past couple of shows were pretty lobsided as well, and like most large U.S. art awards, the Game Awards are more of a marketing show first and foremost, not much of an industry and professional award it styles itself to be.

Btw, what's the videogame equivalent of the Golden Palm?

Probably hades 2 or something. E33 just got too many familiar elements gameplay wise. Other than that it a banger until act 2

It was a B- event. Limp Bizkit would have been a much bigger hit than Evanescence and made sense since they had a huge impact on culture and games in the 2000s.

Probably give Silksong best indie and like Blue Prince best debut indie. E33 while technically an indie feels a bit big and the overall amount of awards given to that game might not be a good sign and limit attention to other games.

Silksong should probably not won best action adventure in turn, probably give it to Split Fiction.

But it's not really the show's fault. It's the industry. They bore me lately.

I had no disagreement with any of the awards. Or the presenters. Or Geoff. Or even the Muppets -- you have to have something for the kiddos I guess, besides trailers full of blood and guts, dystopias and people burning alive.

The recipients were gracious and didn't try to offend anyone by preaching. I would have given it a failing grade if the show was full of that sort of thing. But they didn't do that at all.

The melty-chocolate video background was lame I guess. I liked the orchestra a lot.

Nothing in the trailers I wanted to know about, whatsoever, though. Not even one.

It's not that nothing I want is coming out -- it's that nothing I want was shown.
