The Game Awards 2024

[Sentinel]

And they didn't change the category limitation last year where XC3 DLC same out

Noticing arrogantly

I still hate how biased the Game Awards 2022 were when XBC3 didn't win the music category and lost to God of War Ragnarok...

I'd be great if they added the new rule in 2023 when XBC3 Future Redeemed was released.

Totk is a really good game IMO. Many of you know how much I love Zelda overall.

ER has much better dungeons than Totk and BotW. It’s not even close.

I enjoyed TOTK and BOTW too by the way.

It’s just very odd to me that dudes will literally see overtly some of the best level design in the entire industry and then say the exploration isn’t good lmao

Nah, they're capping hard. Elden Ring has one of the best open-world exploration experience while maintaining their key elements. Meanwhile, as much as I like Zelda, BotW and TotK had to give up lots of its key elements - especially the main dungeons which were a crucial part to the Zelda series.

From the 4 i played this year ( I didn't play astro and balatro) for me its Metaphor. Most fun for me

Also kinda weird to judge FF7 for me personally. My ranking about that game will significantly change for the better or worse how they end it, for obvious spoiler reasons for what happens in those games

Rebirth deserves it imo.

Rebirth deserves it imo.

I mean its a quality game for sure but like I said depending what they do with the writing, which cant be judged before its "complete", it is to iffy for to judge.

Also, I don't know how to put it into words as Im not really good with them but you kinda feel the "chokehold" of the project from its legacy. Some of the stuff that is in rebirth feels like "Oh we GOTTA do have x/y/minigame here or they will say we cheapened out on the fan favorite ff7 remake" or something

Like I say difficult to describe but I hope some people who played it understand what I mean

 

[EmperorKinyagi]

Yeah @Toby D. Dog @Sentinel @kekaro @Elder Lee Hung @TheKnightOfTheSea the dlc being here is just Geoff Keighley trying to get more eyes on the show.

Basically everything I know about fromsoft development cycles + Miyazaki interviews suggest they’re going to announce new projects at the game awards

The writing is mega weird for sure. It works when it’s retreading and expanding on the original story but all that esoteric shit is migraine inducing.

still, I loved the minigames and a lot of the side content. The combat system is nothing below revolutionary.

Blud cursed us again, watch

 

[Kizaruber Eats]

Astrobot deserves it most for sheer creativity, charm, wonder, playfulness etc but I doubt it will win.

I hope we get Dark Souls 2 3(Elden Ring being DS2 2)

Miyazaki gets called up on stage at game awards for art direction.

Bloodborne is not up to him.

 

[EmperorKinyagi]

Bloodborne is not up to him.

It is up to his new owners though

Bloodborne has always been Sony’s. They’re the ones that don’t want anything to do with it.

I know, hence why the situation is a dream.

Also the reuters article I shared... Sony is trying to acquire FromSoft (news today).

Are you hyped for Concord Souls

Yeah I saw the tweets. I thought Sony owned like 20% of fromsoft already. Idc as long as they leave them alone and don’t go on a firing spree.

 

[TheKnightOfTheSea]

Main point is that if repeat content and filler areas didn’t stop the base game from winning goty it shouldn’t stop sote.



Agreed. But I gotta back my boys (fromsoft) unfortunately

Meh that's fair I suppose. ER has already gotten generational love and praise.

ReLLana not ReNNalla btw

People talk about how Consort is fanfic level writing, but Elden Ring Pontiff who's the secret sister of a main boss is almost just as bad

Shadow of the Erdtree is probably the best DLC of all time. I still think it shouldn’t win.

Old Hunters is better though
