one-armed dwarf Posted November 21, 2024 Author Share Posted November 21, 2024 Hopefully we see Doom: The Dark Ages. I know the combat is going to be slower but I want to see if they come up with an interesting combo system. I doubt I'll like it more than Eternal but I'm still really curious I'd also like to see RE9 and what the open world thing they're going for is going to be like. It could be a really interesting upheaval for that series, and IMO it badly needs some sort of upheaval as it's getting kind of stale again A shadow drop of FFVII Rebirth on PC would be neat but I'm not in a rush If I can add in a wishlist item, I'd like an Armored Core VI expansion. I don't know if there's any leaks about that happening or not, but FROM are usually reliable for stuff like that and ACVI feels solid enough to build something cool on top of. I want to give that game another try Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maryokutai Posted November 21, 2024 Share Posted November 21, 2024 Halo Season 2 and Borderlands as nominees in best videogame adaptation. 🤡 I like how wonky the production values of this are btw. Sound sometimes too loud, image out of focus, really dumb jokes. Reminds me of those early days of watching E3 livestreams before the entire industry became über-corporate.

one-armed dwarf Posted November 21, 2024 Author Share Posted November 21, 2024 Ben Starr just goes on stage and bombs hard, bad joke after bad joke. It's very inspiring to me Aerith won an award Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maryokutai Posted November 21, 2024 Share Posted November 21, 2024 Bit of an odd GOTY choice for them I think. Again, I haven't played any game this year that was even remotely in the spotlight, but I've yet to read or hear someone mention that Wukong is their favourite. I've got the impression that was more of a 'yeah, it's alright' sort of title. Also really weird that Prime 4 wasn't even a most wanted nominee. Sure, GTA is going to win all these by default anyway, but come on guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one-armed dwarf Posted November 21, 2024 Author Share Posted November 21, 2024 It sold 18 million copies, it's the biggest success of the year. I don't think it'll win TGA cause I don't think that's a popular vote but that will win the community vote or whatever it's called. I put very little time into it and disliked it, but I'm also speaking as someone who's gotten so allergic to Souls like combat that I almost immediately dropped Silent Hill 2 for the same reason. It has this really spectacular opening cinematic and boss fight that's worth checking out on youtube with the resolution set to 4K, I'll say that much Also FWIW, the game is based off the same source material that the Dragonball manga is based off.

Maryokutai Posted November 21, 2024 Share Posted November 21, 2024 Ninja Theory's Enslaved was also based on Journey to the West and that sold like poop. 🙁 But I do keep forgetting how big of a success it was. Maybe if France had a population of 1.5 billion we would have Beyond Good & Evil 2 by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maryokutai Posted December 10, 2024 Share Posted December 10, 2024 Between Wuthering Waves (had to google this one), Genshin and ZZZ there's basically three versions of the same game in there. A tiny bit hilarious though that after the outrage of Elden Ring DLC being a critics nominee the playerbase just did the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfnick Posted December 10, 2024 Share Posted December 10, 2024 Something to remember is it’s worldwide. Given that you can bet the Asian territories have voted those mobile games in and they’ll outnumber all other votes easily. I heard that the mobile games gave in game rewards for voting for them too. I couldn’t find anything in writing about that though so take with a pinch of salt. Isn’t Genshin quite old though? How’s it in this years?

HandsomeDead Posted December 10, 2024 Share Posted December 10, 2024 They don't directly give you resources for voting but the nature of the games you can put a call to action with the promise everyone will get a bonus if they get nominated, whether with an in-game message or on their social media. Like I'm not above enjoying some rubbish but you can't in good faith call these the best game of the year, but whatever I don't think they're at all capable of putting together a respectable awards show. It's just for showing off trailers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maf Posted December 10, 2024 Share Posted December 10, 2024 Game Awards is for trailers and news, BAFTA is where the real awards are at Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfnick Posted December 10, 2024 Share Posted December 10, 2024 I know these awards are BS really. But there’s being a joke then there’s this. It’s another level of shitness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nag Posted December 10, 2024 Share Posted December 10, 2024 Thing is I have pretty much zero hype on the trailers front either... I think it'll over promise and fail to deliver... again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one-armed dwarf Posted December 10, 2024 Author Share Posted December 10, 2024 I feel like most previous shows have had a good bit of expectation setting before hand tho, even Geoff on occasions saying 'dont get too excited folks" Lots of people doing the opposite with this show tho, major hypemongering by some journos supposedly in the know so who knows Would be nice to have reliable leaks of announcements cause the time it's on is too late to be up just to get let down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
