Yes the game is touching very mature subject. Some scenes really hit hard.
He isn't saying anything about publishers, he's talking about creative freedom, passion for the medium and the kind of working environment that fosters both. He's saying that games developers have a good time making and believe in, players will have a good time playing and believe in. Games made cynically as part of an ongoing production line will want for lack of creative passion.
Zelda could beat GTA and a 96 aggregate score zelda game got beaten by an independent studio just two years ago. Even though the forums were full of people saying yeah as good as baldurs gate is, it's gonna have no chance against zelda, especially when it was so universally well received by the media.
Death stranding 2 are you joking? The first game was boring as shit and this looks exactly the same.
It can appeal to a certain type of person, but almost everyone that is that type of person could like it, while the majority wouldn't care for it.
MHwi has no chance at Goty and i say this as someone that played the game for 300hours, maybe Music and thats It.
South of Midnight, imho.
Yes and no. There a lot more from MGS this time. But it's just the same, not an improvement.
Lol if anything the failed journalists now activists are probably gonna score that shit even higherYou really think it's Grummz and Vara Dark that draw up the nominees for TGA GOTYs?
Most normal people aren't deducting quality points from the game simply because there's a woman protagonist.
Clair Obscur won GOTY 2025?
When you said they released 'player' numbers and not 'sales'. I have seen several posters confidently claim this means a game is a flop.
yeah, the good thing is that Swen has a point and this ll not happen, Goty ll be on the hand of a passion project 100%, KC2, SF, BP, E33 ( my Goty atm ) or DS2, anything else this year dont have a chance, GoY has to be really good do be even nominated.Imagine if somehow an ubisoft game won goty just after that speech
Doom?
Yep. It will likely win. Being a new IP, it will destroy other 'more of the same' sequels like DS2, KCD2, Prime 2, Doom TDA, Monster Hunter Wilds, Ass Creed Shadows, Civ 7, Borderlands 4.........all the same crap.
Am playing through it. Wont comment for now.Goty ???
Yes it could, but not gta6. Rockstar has been edging everyone for too damn long. When your game is anticipated for almost 15 years, there is zero chance of anybody winning against it. This is a guaranteed i'd bet money on np.

when Expedition 33 wins the GoTY (or not, nothing is set on stone).
I'll remember you
gameplay is really good and thats it, story is Doom story, music is Doom music, narrative ? character development ??
Fair enough.gameplay is really good and thats it, story is Doom story, music is Doom music, narrative ? character development ??
i ll give you that ll prob win FPS of the year, but goty ???
lets see what big corporate +200mil budget game ll win Goty this year
Crimson desert is the only wild card i can think off.
The easy bet was the very corporate GTA6, but now that has been delayed pretty likely will be a Sony or Nintendo sequel.
Doom has zero chance
Would have to be a pretty abysmal year for a Mario Kart game to win goty, this is not that year. Has any racing game or kart racer ever won goty?
I mean it's likely. I don't think it's guaranteed, certainly not if the game doesn't deliver at launch.
Why won't it deliver? Just like with GTA5, the singleplayer portion will be good (if you're into these games of course), and polished. The singleplayer will also serve as a foundation for its online, and you want that foundation to be as good as possible because billions will be made from it.
GTA V is 12 years old. 12 years ago it wasn't yet normal to release unfinished games and fix it later. Not saying VI will be like that, but yeah i'll believe it when i see it. Plenty of other reasons too. Game could be too ambitious for it's own good and end up doing too many things but not excelling at anything. I don't really believe that, but who knows. No game is guaranteed to be good regardless of the history of the studio. We've seen it time and time again.
RDR2 is from 2018, which is in the middle of the unfinished/unpolished games shitshow that we're still in, and the game was glorious. No shot they ain't going all hands on deck for their biggest IP, and that includes polishing and finishing everything. 2K might be a bunch of greedy bishes, but they understand how to create a foundation to milk with mtx for years and years after launch.

is right. There is a lot of green left on the table this year. You are counting your fucking chickens right now boys. Don't count the chickens. I hope a game DOES come out to give this one a run. I expect the MK Tour game to outmetacritic it, just off the top. A 92 is very beatable and Nintendo has cooked for 9 years. Also I'm not sure there isn't a holiday surprise this year. Pick your battles. You are probably right this year but keep thinking like this and eventually you will be wrong. That said, E33 is absolutely a GOAT and I'm so appreciative of it. I would love to see it get all the awards but not at the expense of other goats that we might also get. E33 is definitely head and shoulders above the pack atm. You know they are probably already working on an xpak and Switch 2 port.
Why?
