Hi Fi Rush winning an award had to have been salt in the wound lol
The game Bethesda shadow released with no hype whatsoever that can be beaten in a day or two was objectively better than the bland AAA trash they've been hyping up for years
Open world game with no real memorable places
Linear game with more personality in just the first few minutes than the open world game as a whole
Wiki:
It was announced on January 25, 2023 and released worldwide the same day.
that's fucking hysterical
It's a really fucking good game tbh. Stylish, great soundtrack, funny writing and lovable characters. And JOJO REFERENCES
TFW JOJO REFERNCE
Who could have imagined that the guy who once said "fantasy is riding around on a horse hitting things with a sword" and then released a game where you couldn't draw your sword on horseback would make a game so incredibly bland, with an elevator pitch of "it's the space game"?
But you know what, Todd? Thanks for releasing Starfield. This is the most entertainment I've gotten out of a Bethesda game in over a decade and I didn't even play it.
I remember back when they announced starfield I was kinda baffled, since it takes them so long to put out a game it seemed like a waste of resources that could have been put towards the next elder scrolls. but I honestly don’t really have high hopes for Bethesda sticking the landing on that either so lol
Seeing the trajectory of their games there's going to be legendary bandits that drop different rarities of bows with ice arrows. Preston Garvey will be there for some reason to let you know you need to go help a settlement of two npcs with no dialogue.
It sucks that it probably still sold well enough that it'll keep pulling resources away from ES6
Broadly speaking I think it's good when devs take breaks from beloved franchises to create something new and different. That being said, I'm still sad that SF seems to be a flop and not really much different from their previous games.
If it weren’t Bethesda we were talking about I’d probably agree but idk.. to me anything they do outside of tes kinda falls flat
Excited for more AAA devs to lose their respective monopolies on game genres to indie teams.
"What the fuck am I even wasting money on astroturfed reviews if it doesn't get me any awards?"
: So Todd, you made your dream project space game, what did it cost you?
: Everything
Midfield
REMASTER SKYRIM TODD YOU FUCKIN COWARD 
"If you build it they will come" only works if what you build doesn't suck a donkey's butthole
I hurt myself today, to star if I still field.
I have enjoyed Starfield, but there is nothing to award it for. Nothing. The modders, once again, will make it a really good game
I'm so glad Microsoft's strategy of buying every developer/publisher they can to make all their games exclusive because they have no in-house talent seems to be blowing up in their face
L after L for MS Xbox Division.
where's my fucking fallout 4 next gen update, todd
Why? That game sucks not because of bad graphics, but shit writing.
And worse NPC AI than Oblivion
FO4 Survival mode still has the best scavenger-type gameplay I've ever experienced. The main story (which trades blows with Fallout 3 in terms of worst in the franchise) takes a backseat to searching for medicine in a ghoul infested hospital or crawling through sewer tunnels to get the jump on a raider boss
Eh tried it and yeah it's really thrilling until I got tired and got into the ~~EVA~~ power armor.
Still the AI is so bad it ruined the whole experience.
Wait you mean the Fallout4 survival mod that is ridiculously hard? Haven't tried it yet
I don't use power armor because it makes it much harder to be stealthy
I haven't had issues with the AI honestly. I'm using The Midnight Ride modding guide, and it has mods like NPCs Use Items and Chemfluencs - AI Combat Dynamics that seem to have improved it a lot.
I've been using Damn Apocalypse as my main survival overhaul mod. You might be thinking of FROST which really kicks things up a notch and makes things wintry, but I haven't tried it either. There's also Horizon which is like Damn Apocalypse but heavier rand more complex (or rather, DA is a lightweight alternative to Horizon).
Aight, gonna try ir after finishing Witcher 3, I'm abouto to kill the griffin of White Orchard
good luck gamer o7
I don't follow the game award thing who won ?
Baldur's Gate 3 got GOTY, here's a chart with the rest:
Cyberpunk for "best ongoing" is weird, and BG3 for best multiplayer seems wrong but I don't know what else I'd put up against it because I didn't play any new MP games this year.
fk cyberpunk, took them 3 fkin years to add a functioning police system
tbh the CP2077 updates this year were pretty substantial, and the DLC actually adds a lot of content. It's very fun now.
Thanks a lot ! honestly, I only wanted to see the indie section and it's a game I didn't hear about.
If you want to look at other nominees you can go to their website, but unfortunately it's designed to be as slow and irritating as possible.
I checked and it's a nice list of interesting games. The winner, sea of stars look like a nice rpg I will hopefully try and Dave the diver looks great too. Indie games got gorgeous 2d graphics and that's all I want.
Yo ironmouse deserves that big W
Baldur's Gate 3 pretty much swept everything, with a couple of other winners sprinkled in like Alan Wake 2 winning best narrative and game direction or Armored Core 6 winning best action game
