Trying to patent "The Game Awards" is up there with TheFineBros trying to trademark react. If there isn't a substantial backlash on this, we're going to see far worse trademark/copyright abuse.

Games Journalists choose nominees and also choose the winner. Stop bitching. The Game Awards is the Game Journalists Awards. Journalists who are friends with Geoff that is.
I hope Balatro win the game of the year. that is also make lot of people angry. There is many people in twitter who try downplay Balatro cuz it "Just a Card game".
See I loved Balatro but I dont think it deserved the nomination at all, it is far from the best indie game or roguelite to have been released since the last TGA. Only reason it's up there is because it sort of kind of kickstarted a sub-sub-genre if you ignore all the games that came out before it
@@HaouRex no I just dont think Balatro was the best game of the year by any means. Out of the nominated games it deserves it the most, but the fact that games like ZERO Sievert didn't even get a mention shows that the TGA panel only play indie games when those indies are hyper popular on Twitch (see also Palworld)
Personally, I don't think Astro Bot should have been nominated. I always saw it as a tech demo for the PS5. I wish I could be paid to go on a rant about being upset about Astro Bot being a nominee.
If there's anything positive to be had with game awards, it's Harman Smith making 15 Videos per month about it for a whole year saying how he doesnt care about them.
Wukong's user score was 96/100, and those thugs review boomed it brought it down to 83. Just read a few of those 0 score reviews you can clearly see that cause many of them didn't even try to hide their agendas.
Honestly I'm surprised with how the game awards came up with some pretty decent nominations for GOTY astro bot, eldin ring shadow of the eradtree, black myth wukong, balatro all of these are pretty good games. Also why the fuck is star wars outlaws and dragon age get nominated for anything. I voted for black myth wukong because although shadow of the eradtree is really good its a DLC not a game
Because a game's genre has literally nothing to do with its quality? Because it's a pretty great game that kickstarded a sub-genre? Because you dont need flashy 3d graphics and a massive budget to make a fun game?
People crying because BM Wukong is nominated are just stupid. The game deserves to win the GotY because of the fake news IGN published about the developpers (IGN mistranslated what they said and harassed them then). the game took tons of bad reviews only because of that ! however, I prefer to vote for Balatro because that game is the only original in the list (and because Satisfactory is not in the list). Elden Ring doesn't deserve it. the DLC didn't even improve the game's bases (ex: the multiplayer mode is still a big ****. hopefully, there is some good mods on the PC version)
Yeah that journalist needs to go touch grass XD Also side note but for me im hoping for either Black Myth Wukong, Metaphor and MAYBE Astro Bot to win it. Astro Bot being the lowest of those three i think may win. Elden Ring DLC and Rebirth shouldnt be on cause DLC and for Rebirth it FEELS like DLC to existing bits of what we have for FF7s new direction. I dont know Balatro enough to give my opinion so im neutral on it
Games journalists are just cosplaying as gamers they don't game like we do you ever see gameplay by these guys it's atrocious they just talk about how the games lack diversity and fight and argue with the community they should not be talking about what game should or should not be nominated game of the year
Seems like a reasonable article on the subject. I dont get the "coping" part regarding that the awards dont matter since you said the exact same thing. Apparently the game got good reviews but not great ones and other games scored higher. So I really dont get it honestly. Then again I neither know the game in question nor anything about these awards and their criteria for the games.
Other games got higher critic reviews but Black Myth Wukong had a far better audience score. These game journalists just don’t like that people care more about what the audience thinks than what they think. Also the reason the article saying that the game awards don’t matter is Copium is because it is blatantly obvious the article is only saying that because a game that the author doesn’t like got in. Normally game journalists sites glaze the game awards to no end.
@jameslough6329 well i guess if its among the best audience scores it makes sense and i figured as much. But it didnt sound like its among the best audience scores.
@@jameslough6329 so the author is going purely by journalist reviews then. Honestly the entire thing doesnt seem like its even worth an article or a reply video.
Yeah I personally don't care about the game awards I don't even waste my time watching it I know what I like and I know what I don't like I don't got time for people to tell me what was the game of the year lol when I got my personal favorite games just not for me
@@ProjectionProjects2.7182 exactly but some of the people that don't take it seriously they still watch it I just don't have time for it I mean people could do what they want to they can watch it I'm just not going to waste my time
@roftar hey That's your choice never said your choices wrong I personally just don't care as long as they get my money and I get to play their games that's good enough for me and if I like it I like it if I don't I don't That's just me
TGA has been absolute garbage for its entire run anyway, I dont know how anypne can be upset, it means literally nothing. They nominated like a dozen games across all categories because the TGA panel doesn't play nearly enough games to be an awards pannel and they only nominate games that give them political or monetary benefit lol
@@ReluctantReader *it has been a weak year for the AAA industry This has been one of the best years for gaming of all time if you ignore AAAs, dozens of absolutely brilliant indies/AAs have released or come out of early access this year (it is legitimately offensice that a DLC is up for GOTY but ZERO Sievert has been snubbed), the wider populace is finally aware of the rampant censorship and media corruption that has been known about since 2010 but was hidden from the non-nerds by the media at the time, Anna Purna's staff successfully revolted against their owners, Ubisoft has been all but destroyed, Bioware is finally getting their just deserts after over a decade of dismantling the RPG genre and the industry as a whole by leading the "access media" charge and people are finally waking to the fact that Bethesda has not improved anything other than graphics in 20 years This has been one of the best years ever. It's just that TGA hates indie games so the GotY catagory looks really pathetic, but if they actually paid any attention to the industry the GotY award would be between Balatro and 5 other indie titles instead of decent but pretty monkey game, part 2 of a 3-part $250 remake, DLC, *the Atlus game* and haha poker

"Wukong is the worst reviewed game to appear in GOTY" Well, who said YOUR reviews ever mattered?
DLCs/Expansions and Remakes/Remasters should have their separate category
Journos when they realise Black Myth Wukong was a commercial success because it wasn't written horridly and was faithful to chinese mythology
the only other game that would have made them angrier was if stellarblade was on the list
Well boy do I have a surprise for you! It’s there on a few categories
Honestly, when are game journalists not crying?
@@ProjectionProjects2.7182 yeah they're always crying
@@natejoe9924 Yeah at this point they cry almost as much as Kabullo in my comment section lol.
@@ProjectionProjects2.7182 I 100% agree
Remember when that one guy couldnt beat the Cuphead tutorial
@boblionia oh yes I remember that was hilarious I could not stop laughing 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Honestly i hope black myth wukong does win game of the year to see these people cry more.
5.8 for players review point is because of Joel’s death. Am I right?
Bro was angry there wasn't enough women like that review of it a while back
Imagine if Stellar blade was on the list and won it , the meltdown would've been hilarious

Love to see those game journalists spreading their anger, take it as a comedy show!
I think I got recommended the wrong channel but I completely agree with the article your reading over your commentary.
The games “journalists” that was crying about black myth wukong for months was giving the game free advertisement
Have they not see the reviews of Black Myth on steam? It's literally the highest rated game on steam out of them all with over 700k reviews
They don't care about that. They care about their own opinion.
The real crime is Satisfactory not being on there.
Journos: "Wait, people have different likes and dislikes?"
It deserves a lot more, it`s a fantastic piece of art.
Perhaps, if you’re into CCP propaganda.
Personally, I don't think Astro Bot should have been nominated. I always saw it as a tech demo for the PS5. I wish I could be paid to go on a rant about being upset about Astro Bot being a nominee.
Bro yea i wish mfers would pay me to rant about shit
I guess I have a very "niche" opinion on games since the game awards doesn't have ONE game I am even slightly interested in 😅
Many of Black Myth: Wukong's low user scores on metacritic are from wokies.
If you call anti-communists “wokies”, then sure.
Its actually crazy how game award are rigged
The game was rigged from the start
Game awards have always been rigged.
Have you been living under a rock?

Well, they should mention concord! Concord is the best in their mind!
Where stalker 2?
Most sane gaming journalist.
I can't vote for something which I can't play without the actual game just because the content is long.
Now I want wukong to win
Wukong's user score was 96/100, and those thugs review boomed it brought it down to 83. Just read a few of those 0 score reviews you can clearly see that cause many of them didn't even try to hide their agendas.
If i cpuld get a pc, forgive me father 2 and mullet madjack would be my game of the year
7:43 I do agree that space marine should have gotten nominated I believe that they were referring to that
A journalist HAS to stay neutral. Those people are activists and nothing else.
It'd be really funny if elden ring won twice
Who cares about GOTY? do we need someone to tell us what game was the best this year 😂😂
Honestly I'm surprised with how the game awards came up with some pretty decent nominations for GOTY astro bot, eldin ring shadow of the eradtree, black myth wukong, balatro all of these are pretty good games.

Didn't know someone could talk this slow
the elden ring dlc shouldnt even be a nominee. should be stellar blade in its place
If the gane awards don't matter, what's the point of the article?
Wsg Sneakycacti, how ya doin?
this is a disparate attempt to validate their own opinion, lets be honest, that's all game journalists are
Why no one talking about that card game get a nomination 😂

That's DLC,not a game.
