Bro, not even Geoff Keighley cares this much about these awards
If you wanted to win you should have made a better game.
Motherfucker did win two awards
Nah, should have not been Chinese.
Bigots who themselves belong to vulnerable griups when bigotry comes around to bite them in the ass.
Basically this
Idk why anybody puts any stock into this stuff. I mean, Astrobot won GotY, which don't get me wrong, Astrobot is a cool game with some really good uses of the PS4 graphics capabilities, efficiencies, and hardware, but it really just served as the wake to the graveyard of PS Exclusives.
It's been pretty clear that the whole thing has been mostly industry payola from the beginning.
The way I see it there's millions of people who would unironically fight in wars to defend their favorite console, game or genre. Anyone reasonable can tell that Astrobot won more or less because the game awards are just an expensive form of advertisement. However, you've got a legion of people who are pissed off that their favorite game didn't win GotY.
Add politics to the mix and you understand some people get over it and others never will. Haven't seen Athlus or Balatro fans seething with hatred because their game didn't win GotY. Wukong was at least nominated, but that won't stop soft porn fans from complaining that Stellar Blade didn't win.
I voted for Astro Bot because I'm not interested in poker, anime, sexism, and the idea of DLC as a GOTY.

I think that's the problem is show how good PS4 is but the game was released for PS5
/s
Oh man, I can't even remember what system we are on now.
This dev sounds ridiculously arrogant, like I think I heard he pre-wrote his acceptance speech two years before the game was even out? That would be arrogant even for Miyazaki and Elden Ring, when it was pretty much a shoehorn.
I use Chinese forums occasionally, Wukong was wildly popular over there and considered a shoe-in for the win. Astrobot was okay but a lot of the appeal is just "I recognize that reference!" and the story is non-existent.
Personally I would've given it to Balatro or Wukong, but GotY basically always goes to a Japanese or Western AAA game so they were both out from the beginning
Isn't it like a step above a beat em up? He acts like he made Sekiro or something.
Isn't Sekiro also basically just a beat em up?
Sekiro is a rhythm game like DDR and nobody will ever convince me otherwise
The day I made this realization was the day I beat Gyoubu Oniwa
Every game without RNG and almost every game with RNG becomes DDR once you speedrun it. The really funny ones are old-school JRPGs where people optimize going through the menus.
every good melee action game is basically
I came for nothing
Exactly, you should've retained your vital essence
Didn’t they literally win multiple awards? The fuck
It isn't Balatro. Why did he think he could win.
Hear me out, what if they added a Balatro mode to the game? Then I think it would have a shot.
I thought gamers hated this game bc
No they like it because the directirs homophobic
Meme of guy looking at two buttons sweating.
I thought the game was pretty good, shame the devs have brainworms.
I think they love it more because the company hates women
I've seen Chinese folks actually defend the depiction of women in the game in that they're portrayed as strong and with agency, but that that aspect was ignored by racist journalists
I can't believe that the people nominated us for the Jacking Off Major Media Publications Award of the Year, and we didn't win. What gives?
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
Why do people even care about goty
Fucking Astrobot won (fun game don't get me wrong, but bruh) this has obviously just become a joke
