Game Developers Choice Awards 2014 Thread: Watch Live March 19, 2014

Papers, Don't Starve, and Towerfall were all excellent, so it would've been great for any of them. Wonder how many times Lucas Pope is going to be up there though?
 
Never heard of Gorogora till now but I feel out of the ones nominated it was well deserved win.

I find it a bit questionable about when one of their nominees is AAA game. When will they stop saying dev names?
 
Those are some fairly unremarkable looking indie games.

I hate to say that I kinda agree. I don't know how to describe it, but it's kinda like quirkiness overload and everything starts running together. But there is some cool ones too that I'm hearing for the first time so that's good.

mind you AWP is the type of skit that has trigger warnings at the beginning of their videos. that should tell you everything.

lol, ok that makes sense. Had never heard of them before.
 
I'm really out of the loop regarding indie games, I almost know none of them. I'm glad the IGF exists.

Regarding the award given to Sarkeesian, I don't think she deserves it, plain and simple.

edit: oh, NeoGAF nod. Your tie is fine, bro.
 
I'm sure I'm not living under a rock. Last of Us would in a popularity contest for this year and not an indie game even one as good as Stanley's Parable.
 
Watching this makes me so happy about the different people creating such different and creative things... and then you read the twitch chat and it reminds you just how fucking lame our industry really is. It's not special compared to film or any other medium in this regard. People like to think so. They think since they were nerds growing up or since they know the secret language of the internet that they are immune to what happened to the mainstreaming of film. They are dead wrong.
