My opinion: Fallout won best adaptation because Arcane had NOTHING to do with the actual gameplay. Arcane was best LORE adaptation, but Fallout was best GAME adaptation.
I keep seeing this and I don’t understand this notion at all. Arcane season 1 won and that was great TV but season 2 missed the mark. Yeah, it’s gorgeous, but the highs don’t excuse the lows - the breakneck pacing, rushed characterizations, the botched ending. Fallout was a good time from start to finish but I sat through the credits of Arcane S2 thinking what I’ve done differently
Calling astro bot the 'PlayStation shill game' mere minutes after you praised it for being a great game that "went hard". Feels like the biggest piece of whiplash I have ever experienced from this guy.
And then completely ignoring the acceptance speech where they're talking about the importance of recognizing that this is the first game many children will play and going over platformer history while name-dropping Super Mario Bros lol
33:10 i would absolutely be making fun of him calling the soccer game "rocket league w/o cars" but i was watching the awards alone and not with the stream and i Also called it rocket league w/o cars so
@@pokemongirl7511 they are trying to deny the allegations, but even if that werent true, their company heavily works in blockchain/web3/nft culture so it feels really shady anyway. i don’t personally like to give them any attention 🤷♂️
It is killing me how much Jacob is talking about Marvel Rivals but still has not released a video about it on any channel as far as I've seen. I don't begrudge the man for being busy and having a bunch of other stuff to get out, I just really like that game and want to see him play it.
I love the fact Astro Bot won game of the year. Not a huge open world game, like so many companies want to make now. A genuinely fun, engaging, gorgeous game that i would HAPPILY 100% twice more, on the other save files.. Also, dam it Alpha, you wernt paying attention to the Okami 2 announcment! I think he is the least hyped person i saw reacting to it. Lol
Astro Bot doesn't count as a shill, because Sony went on the record to say they don't have any IP. So clearly, any new games for anyone represented in Astro Bot is a cooked prospect. Sorry Jak and Daxter fans, we're never getting a new game.
1:13:10 A Way Out is also a fun game and the story is incredible, but I made the mistake of playing it after It Takes Two. I feel like I just couldn't help but always try to compare it as I was playing with my friend... That and it is admittedly waaaaay shorter.
I need to find myself a boyfriend that’s just like Jacob because I imagine Jacob like sir Ian McKellen, old gay/bi kinda guy and to hear him say that he “was in blanky mode” made me audible say aww and was like I want to be in blanky mode even though I’m about to be 24
Arcane is pretty but I wouldn't call it the best adaptation. I also would hesitate on calling it as brilliant as a lot of people do tho, but maybe that's just me. Amazing art and good music, that I'll give it. Fallout tho was a phenomenal adaptation of its source material. Astoundingly good while also being a good TV show. 🤷♀️
I don't think astrobot deserved game direction. Even though it was good, it was more of a celebration rather than innovation in the genre and didn't require very special levels of direction. I don't think metaphor should've gotten that either even though its my GOTY and should've won GOTY. Probably black myth deserves best game direction.

Season one of arcane won best game adaption back when it happened
Tbf there isnt much to adapt with league gameplay
@@sachanadeau5444they completely changed a character(Victor) which really doesn't make sense
@@ArcaneMelody107 I thought cyberpunk did

I'd say Astro Bot is more of a celebration than a promotion lol
Especially when most of the games represented in Astro Bot don't have a new installment to promote in the first place.
@@emmanuelesparza179 Most of the games referenced can't even be played on a ps5 lol
Jacob with another steaming pile of shit take. What a shocker.
It was made for the 30th anniversary, it was always a celebration
@@sable-king2066 did he kill your family or something

I notice some people were praising or don’t mind Astro Bot winning best Family Game then get pissed when it won more awards and GOTY.

*I love how alpha was manifesting*
*sonic racing crossroads this whole time without realising*
Thank you for cutting out the AI game and not giving them promotion. It’s so weird how they got such a big platform so easily.
Which game? Is it the cat one?
@ yep! i wont name it directly
@@tiaminiz Thanks! I agree it was incredibly uncanny valley, AI or not lol
well shit, i suspected it but wasn't sure and thought it might've been cool. ah well.

Not Overwatch 3!!! Let's go!

Not to mention they put a LocoRoco level in this game. They didn’t have to put a level from a PSP game but they did.
This man was holding it for 4 MONTHS!!! Will of titanium over here
Took 18 years and a studio ressurection to bring okami back. Also, is the helldivers 2 trailer reaction removed cause of music copyright?
BG3 was not a sweep last year lol. Alan Wake 2 took home best game direction, best narrative, best art direction.
Zelda should've won more last year too 😊
Wins every major game of the year award
@@shauryasuri3653 sorry but they changed the rule to allow dlc to win game of the year this year, not last
When is the Infinity Nikki stream, Jacob?
Nintendo is clearly saving all their announcements for the Switch 2 direct, that they already said was happening before the end of the fiscal year.

3:12:48 AlphaPog 😂
Seriously, 2 RGG titles and a new Onimusha for the first time since I think the PS2.
Japan's coming out swinging thia year.
So turns out according to yts gaming recap my top watched game was among us and my top watched channel was alpharad replay. I think I have a problem
Alpharad NEEDS to play infinity Nikki
Alpharad using his stream sponsored by Sonic to recommend a Sonic game with Neon White mechanics is extremely based.
The warframe disrespect holy shit
Giving you a second
Holy shit that Christmas sweater. 😂
Astro bot is a perfect game to win after that speech
I need to find myself a boyfriend that’s just like Jacob because I imagine Jacob like sir Ian McKellen, old gay/bi kinda guy and to hear him say that he “was in blanky mode” made me audible say aww and was like I want to be in blanky mode even though I’m about to be 24
Bro, your Christmas sweater is an absolute ugly shade of blue. I like it. Merry Christmas!
what do you think would happen if little Jacob was told he'd one day be one of the first people to see the third sonic movie and be sponsored by them?
We already predicted the Sonic Racing game in the forums ha, so many Sonic Prime jokes
Just using the Time Machine
seems like a few of the games were cut out of this? what happened
The trailers probably had copyrighted music
@@emilyd4469 ye but he left copyrighted parts in such as snoop and the borderlands trailer which got claimed on other channels so idk
one game was ai so he cut that out, guessing the others was copyright lol
Infinity Nikki is actually so peak tho
Should’ve cut to Keenu more smh
Did ARAD get cut out because Geoff was talking about it then it cut to Dying light.
CHAOS CONTROL

During the arcane segment... it's unfortunately spoilers for veteran League fans lol.
Please let him play Star Rail
Starrail has amazing story. You should play honkai for story
Omg its jeff keely from among us
YESSS LETS GO FINALLY
Ooo it’s the earliest I’ve been:0
