Aw, that was a nice message from the team.

 

[Toad.T]

Overwatch?? Eeeewwwww.

Digimon got robbed.

If any anime title won one of these awards, I'd shit bricks.

 

[goldsoundz]

Overwatch was the only choice for GOTY, and the only game I think would dethrone it in the last 10 years would be The Witcher 3. So well deserved. I love you Overwatch!

Ana is my waifu.

 

[Papasmurf531]

Thank God Uncharted 4 did not get it. I enjoyed it, but only for the story and characters. Gameplay did not do it for me at all.

 

[Spiral Insanity]

Overwatch over DOOM and U4. smh

Also FFXV didn't exist at this show.

FFXV didn't make the late November cut off date.

 

[TWrecks310]

There's been a lot of great games this year I couldn't be mad at whatever would have won there

 

[Ashodin]

I was legit shook Overwatch won it

 

[DNAbro]

Yup. Definitely my GOTY as well.

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

Overwatch not my thing but blizzard is killing it these days so good for them.

 

[decisions]

Uncharted 4 is overrrated. But the only game that came out in 2016 that is more overrated than it is Overwatch.

 

[The_Dama]

Good show. Thank Geoff and Bosman

 

[FluxWaveZ]

That was a good show. Not incredible or anything, but I don't think an award show could ever be "incredible." Geoff's doing things right.

 

[friskykillface]

Show would be better as a 1 hour or 1 hour 15 minute show

Overall I liked this years show, kudos Geoff

 

[tearsintherain]

Felt like a better produced but more boring VGA than the previous 2 years. At least it more or less stuck to the schedule.

A lot of duds were winning it felt like to me, but personal tastes and all that I suppose.

 

[immortald3ath]

Overwatch! Nice.

 

[Leafhopper]

Glad the game with the dabbing emote didn't win.

 

[Scientist Supreme!]

Worst speech. How can a fucking competitive multiplayer game have a message? Embarrassing.

This post really is.

 

[thecosmicfly]

Hitman robbed of GOTY.

 

[Mestizo]

So the future is online multigaming with waifus?

Give me back Call of Duty WoW

 

[Pineapple]

Fucking amazing. The concept, art, music...

No one else in this industry is putting out games like this...or at least look like this. It's all way too safe. Once again, though, Kojima proves he has the ability to fuse different themes and artistic styles to create one epic looking game.

I mean, when it comes to story complexity and depth, writing, and overall cinematic production quality, Kojima just can't be beat.

Edit - Wrong thread. I was looking for the Death Stranding thread. But yeah, good show!

 

[papertoonz]

i like OW but ti isn't GOTY

there are so many bad design choices

 

[SuperSonic1305]

Award for best porn

 

[Jimrpg]

Overwatch is great. Congrats!

 

[Quonny]

God damn Blizzard is super smart. They take complicated games and make them more casual while pumping out amazing art and small tweaks.

EQ to WoW, Magic to HS, League/Dota to HotS, and now class-based-FPS to Overwatch.

It clearly works for them, so congrats.

 

[Sho_Nuff82]

Overwatch over DOOM and U4. smh

Also FFXV didn't exist at this show.

FfXV came out 48 hours before the broadcast. How could it even be nominated?

 

[ArtHands]

A fucking multiplayer only shooter....lol

Well its fun, which is the most important element for being a game of the year.

 

[chubigans]

END OF SHOW

 

[truestatic]

Ugh. Could not have gone to a less deserving game.

Lots of better ones to choose from.



This is exactly my problem with it.

Wow guess you just have to make a game with barely any content and micro transactions to win goty. Fuck story fuck narrative.

You guys realize the fact that it's NOT a story centric, single player, linear game makes it something of an UPSET, right? I don't think we're quite at the point yet where we can start whining that UC4 was disadvantaged because of its single player, cinematic nature.

 

[Lakershead22]

I don't agree with the choice for goty but congrats to the people who developed it.

 

[Santiako]

Make waifus.

Get GOTYs.

 

[Blobbers]

I don't care much for Overwatch but I'm glad it won over Uncharted 4.

my exact same thoughts except replace Uncharted with Inside

 

[CertifiedFP]

<Angry comment about Overwatch winning instead of some avant garde ~art game~>

 

[Burt]

where's the Kyle Bosman post show coverage at

 

[disappeared]

All right now back to watch dogs 2

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

Andromeda looks really, really, really good.

 

[Bjoern the Smexy]

So did Firewatch actually win anything?

 

[Ozium]

Wow guess you just have to make a game with barely any content and micro transactions to win goty. Fuck story fuck narrative.

there is actually a story and deep lore in Overwatch, shame it's locked behind microtransactions to unlock voice lines

 

[Ganado]

I litterally can't even.
I'm shaking right now.
DOOM GOT ROBBED

 

[Mr Fahrenheit]

Geoff made the correct choice

 

[De_Legend]

Meh.

Can't wait for PSX!

 

[Greatest Ever]

Wow guess you just have to make a game with barely any content and micro transactions to win goty. Fuck story fuck narrative.

Uncharted 4 has microtransactions.

 

[TalonJH]

Overwatch over DOOM and U4. smh

Also FFXV didn't exist at this show.

It came out too late.

 

[alr1ght]

RIP single player games. &#128549;

 

[Barzul]

What was the big announcement Geoff was hyping up in the preshow??

 

[Barakov]

Overwatch? I can see that. Congrats to Blizzard.

 

[antitrop]

Overwatch is one of the best games I've ever played.

 

[Compsiox]

I can't believe Battlefield 1 came away with nothing. Such a good game.

 

[EnlightenedMint]

Good speech, people get so damn upset over these awards lol

 

[Community Forum]

Wow my feed cut off abruptly.

 

[Exploratory]

Ugh. Could not have gone to a less deserving game.

Lots of better ones to choose from.



This is exactly my problem with it.

I agree.

Or that's what I'd say if this were the FUCKING OSCARS.
