It's another year, it's another Game Awards come and gone. This year saw some unprecedented challenges in all facets and walks of life, and it was on full display as presenters and award winners mostly joined in via Zoom, and performers performed on video feeds, rather than the main stage. However, what didn't change were announcements and the actual awards.

Good to see NMS recognition, they are single handedly (to my knowledge, though maybe PoE?) showing how to operate a unique and fair revenue system over a time frame you would expect for a MMORPG. Don't expect any other company to follow with this model, as gaming history shows us it is only abusive monetary model ideas that move at light speed around the gaming industry.
Not sure about remakes getting onto the list; what next, games that just have big graphics updates being contenders for an award? I have heard they did a lot to FF VII, but still it is a remake, maybe they should have their own category?
mmorpg junkie since 1999
"lighten up francis."
People get to make the video games they want to make. That should never, ever be a question.
If the people covering these games like or want to support them that's their business. I'm sure you would be "all a titter" if some more conservative game won.
Also, these awards really don't mean much. I'm kind of glad there is recognition for game developers and it can be fun to watch (other than the blatant advertising but whatever) but people need to put this stuff into perspective and not attach too much of your own self worth to the proceedings.
They are just video games. Just like other awards shows are just about movies or songs, etc.
There will be another next year.

The actual game of the year that actually matters is the Player's Voice award. Always has been. That's where your voice is heard.
with the little gadget that allows you to use a mouse and keyboard(eagle eye converter),I never got very far before I was completely overwhelmed and died in the first part itself. I was unable navigate properly. Game was probably never meant to be played on a mouse and kb no matter what gadget you employ.
I have been always very curious about the story and always meant to sit and watch a walkthrough but I don't have time to spare for that in my rather hectic life. The second game seems to have made a lot of people angry because it favours certain interest and I don't understand why that is an issue. All the years that have passed without stories that focus on these interest has never once been weighed in to show that it is about time these stories were told.
I would support it wholeheartedly if only I could play it. I have no idea whether the game deserves the accolades but I leave that to the people who have actually played the game.
maybe next year we can have Streamer categories?
You know how difficult i am to please but i may have to agree with this assesment because it blew me away.I was also surprised because i thought given Square's trend over the last 7 or so years that i would see a very simple,shallow remake but they actually put a lot of effort into it.
Typically remakes just feel like the exact same game however with FF7 it feels like a brand new game.
What makes it more impressive is that i don't even like FF7 combat and yet the game overall still impressed me.
The biggest laugh i got out of browsing over the winners>>>Best Esport ATHLETE ...ROFLMAO.
I used to consider myself and actual athlete and would take serious offense to any gamer being called an athlete because of a game.
The only argument if there is even one is that a gamer uses his mind as does an athlete and often you can outsmart a better athlete to victory.However simple keyboard and mouse button pressing does not support the mind use theory in a way that acknowledges an athlete.
Never forget 3 mile Island and never trust a government official or company spokesman.
Not all a titter here, but I am wondering what these conservative games are that are being made? I don't see FPS as a "conservative" genre, but maybe some do?
All things are political. All things. It's just a matter of what politics being used for what purposes with what degree of tact and subtlety.
By Players Voice you mean choice right? Yeah I agree Ghost of Tsushima is awesome.
What does it mean to be an athlete?
1 : a person who is trained or skilled in exercises, sports, or games requiring physical strength, agility, or stamina.
So.. as you can see.. it takes a lot of work and dedication to be the best.. they deserve to be called athletes.

When i say a game is really bad that means you couldn't pay me to play it unless you paid me a LOT of money.
None of what i say matters anyhow as anyone with any intelligence knows that reviews or awards means NOTHING.YOUR game of choice should suit YOU and not matter one bit weather or not it won any awards,right or wrong?

Yo udo realize it was Microsoft that forced out SOT WAY too early before it should have and at a whopping $80 price tag,so don't go expecting anything good to come out of Microsoft.
I talked about what is typical of remakes and why i thought FF7 remake showed a lot of effort.Microsoft did remakes of it's AOE series and they were LAZY cheap remakes.I am simply trying to point out that Microsoft along with it's recent forced W10 crap is NOT the good guy...EVER.

But does the military define FPS? I question that from Doom to even CP 2077. Now it can be tricky to define a FPS, I would not actually put CP 2077 in that category. But many FPS have a lot of story, the definition can get blurred.
But if what you are saying is true, is that why The Game Awards leave FPS of the list? That would be a political move that should not be part of our hobby. Personally I think they just don't like the idea of young guys with guns and that FPS feeds the desire of youngsters to get them. There is no evidence that there is any influence mind you.
If your PC/console game had some sort of version on mobile, that would hugely increase your chance of getting an award. And which version comes first seems to be changing, mobile is increasingly considered right from the beginning.
The same is true for games that only come out on PC or Console, they do seem to have a disadvantage.
The most over hyped game of all time just released a few days ago.
거북이는 목을 내밀 때 안 움직입니다
And yes. Regardless of quality, Cyberpunk is the most overhyped game of all time. No game can live up to that.
Logic, my dear, merely enables one to be wrong with great authority.
