The Game Awards are just as rigged as any other BS awards show. Remember how just a few years ago, the least popular and most hated game of the year, The Last of Us Part II, won "Game of the Year" over Ghosts of Tsushima and every other game people actually LIKED? And yet, it already had several paid-for awards and accolades.

Literally nobody fucking liked The Last of Us II. Not even liberal progressives like it; they found the game to be "too depressing and violent." Their words. The gameplay was also dogshit and improved nothing over the first game, released in 2013. The first Last of Us wasn't even good, gameplay wise; people only liked it for the story.

The point is, the Game Awards are even faker than American elections and have no validity whatsoever. How the FUCK is God of War Ragnarok on there when it literally just came out this week? And it's not even good. Stray, the three hour cat game, is on there. Yeah, the Game Awards are a complete shitshow and completely irrelevant. Just like video game journalists have been for years now. I hate that anyone's even giving these shills and corrupt assholes any attention.

I don't think people care about award shows anymore. I don't know anyone who watches them anymore.

The winner is obviously who pays the most money to the reviewers.

The only one of these that I’ve played is Stray. I loved that game so much lol.
but besides Elden Ring, I never even heard of any of these. then again I’m not that much of a gamer. Even so for something that’s nominated “game of the year” you think I would have at least heard of them? 😅

I sadly had no chance to play any of them
But il say from news and tells Stary

Isn't that similar to the ''Oscar'' show?

A closed community celebrates itself and then proceeds to exploit the customers' wallets :D

Most ''new'' and ''popular'' games follow a trodden path and are -within their own 'genre' - quite similar to all the others.

REAL creativity is found in Indie games; but they don't make money :(
