Honestly, good. Should have given them more time instead of Hollywood celebrities that, frankly, seemed embarrassed to be there. People watch the game awards to hear about gaming, not listen to Simu Liu, Matthew McConaughey, and Jordan Peele monologue with awkward jokes.

I wanna listen to the people I voted for talk about the projects they love and worked so hard on. That was a huge moment for the winners, and they were just shooed offstage like they were randos no one cared about. What a way to sour their moment.

Worst part this year was that they allowed the people advertising stuff talk endlessly but an award winner talking more than 60 seconds? Blare that music and get them off stage

It was really cool to see the awards do an homage to big gaming trends by doing an any% speedrun of the actual awards in between the ad breaks

It sucks because while the award has lost 'prestige' by becoming too much of a marketing gimmick it still obviously means a great deal to the teams that win. Maybe I'm too jaded on the topic but I can't watch these kind of events anymore. Unaffiliated celebrities, shitty ad slots, can't even hear the people your watching for talk for any length of time. For the viewers it's kinda a shitty thing to watch live. Catch the highlights as they make their rounds on social media.

Don't forget the raffles for viewers that were impossible to enter and only us zip codes were accepted in the brief moment that it worked even though several countries were listed as eligible

I'd love to read the article but this is as far as I got

Reloading the page got rid of it but still wtf. Forcing me to leave your website and reload the page is idiotic.

Unfortunately no one cares about game devs.

I only watched some parts of the event, I can’t stand the celebrity cringe

Gonzo was cool though.

I just had the Twitch stream on in the background, for the free Warframe.
