as cool as the reveals were, I’m really disappointed at how every single award winner, even GOTY had only 30 seconds to give their speech along with a huge “wrap it up” sign for pretty much everyone to see. They focused more on celebrities (and Kojima) instead of the people who really worked their asses off to be on a stage like this, really shitty moves from them and I hope it changes next year cause it was unacceptable.
Yeah I’d rather this continue to be a celebration of the games teams have worked so hard to make and not just another monopolized advertising campaign. Like damn the BG3 devs were talking about a collogue that passed when they were being urged to go.
@@BigHuskyGG I’d rather hear 40 minutes of judge talking about how passionate he is working in the games industry than a random celeb who isn’t here for anything more than a paycheck getting more screen time than actual game devs, tbh

Honestly, it was abysmal that celebs were given as much time as they wanted to by the hosts of the game awards to spew out jokes and even promote their movies. While actual game devs who wanted to congratulate their fellow developers for their hard work and effort were given little time to give speeches and were told to “wrap it up”. Really putting the “GAME” in “GAME” Awards.
We really had to see Anthony Mackie attempt a straight up uncomfortable amount of awkward crowd work but the game of the year winners get waved off while talking about a colleague and friend who passed. Just tasteless, Geoff needs to stop being such a starfucker and allocate some more respect and time for the artists and creators.

I'm pretty sure they gave more screentime to Simu Liu and Matthew McConaughey than they did the Larian guys accepting GOTY for Baldur's Gate or Eiji Aonuma accepting Best Action/Adventure for TOTK, which no offense to those actors, but that is goddamn depressing to think about. Sea of Stars winning Best Indie was read off like groceries in a list too But hey Arkane's making Blade. Honestly really hyped about that one
Not sure if I'm that excited for an Arkane game with how hard they've messed up with Redfall. But maybe Blade will be their chance at redemption, especially since you're killing vampires in that game so it's almost poetic at this point.
The people who made redfall I think was a different subsidiary of Arkane, I believe the people who are making blade are the ones who did deathdloop and the dishonored series @@shai310
@@shai310 This is a different team. Arkane Austin made Prey and Redfall. Lyon did the Dishonored series and Deathloop so this is their next game after like 2 years
its depressing but also realistic. using the doods as an example, whenever there was a speech they didn't pay attention at all/talked over it. and tbh that's the same for the majority of viewers. this took over for e3 as the superbowl for games(watching commercials rather than the football game). and a lot of the viewers are only interested in the ads/announcements. they gotta keep the small attentionspan of the people on the show
So I’m the only one in my friend group who has played Alan Wake 2, while they all played Baldur’s Gate 3, and it was so fucking fun being the evil cackling villain swiping a few awards from them (all in good fun though). That game is truly different and bizarre and fascinating, though. Norse mythology, Jungian Psychology, Hero’s Journey, Power Ballads, it’s all in there in a beautiful nonsensical package.

Why on earth did we get almost 3 straight minutes of gonzo the great being awkward, chasing chickens, and not understanding at all why he’s here and yet most if not all of the game developers who aren’t Kojima didn’t even get a minute.
I wish The Game Awards gave the devs and VAs a chance to talk about some behind the scenes stuff and how the games earned the awards they did. Instead it feels like the speeches are rushed, and most of the time is an advertising segment (as cool as it is to get new announcements and everything)
They were rushed, most had 30 seconds and even a screen telling them to "wrap it up" once they got over those 30 seconds Its honestly so disheartening because it feels they wanted more celeb appeal because they didnt have any time limit at all and they invited so many more celebs compared to actual devs its ridiculous Oh and obviously Kojima not included because they love Kojima too much ig, I mean, He is an insanely creative director dont get me wrong, but so were the guys that won other awards and specially GOTY and they didnt get the same treatment for some reason:/
@@EzKay_PX Let me be honest, these 'game awards' felt like Oscar for those boring Hollywood celeb to feel superior. Honestly, they should f**k off and stay in Oscar instead of invading Game Awards we gamers waited for years to stick out their crappy jokes and ego..
Late, but: I agree with some who have thrown it out that The Game Awards needs more performance categories, but...they just want the Lead/Supporting framework of the non-interactive media. Me? I'd want: Actor and Actress in a Sole/Primary Playable Character Role, Actor and Actress in a Secondary Playable Character Role and Actor and Actress in an NPC Role. Because all of those designations have, generally, different player expectations as to how they function, writing/performance wise. Let's break down the Game Awards' performance winners under the two frameworks. 2014: Movie Framework: Leading. My Framework: Secondary Playable Character Role. 2015: Movie Framework: Leading. My Framework: NPC Role. 2016: Movie Framework: Leading. My Framework: Sole/Primary Playable Character Role. 2017: Movie Framework: Leading. My Framework: Sole/Primary Playable Character Role. 2018: Movie Framework: Leading. My Framework: Sole/Primary Playable Character Role. 2019: Movie Framework: Supporting. My Framework: NPC Role. 2020: Movie Framework: Leading. My Framework: Sole/Primary Playable Character Role. 2021: Movie Framework: Supporting. My Framework: NPC Role. 2022: Movie Framework: Leading. My Framework: Sole/Primary Playable Character Role. 2023: Movie Framework: Supporting. My Framework: Secondary Playable Character Role.
38:36 I went absolutely ecstatic when I heard Neil won, the man is so incredibly talented and yet he's so underrated. I love this man, he's such a good person too, he's honestly amazing, I look up to him as I'm an aspiring actor.
Neil absolutely killed the performance as Astarion. The combination of sass, improvisation, the sheer range of emotions he conveys AND how hilarious he can be sealed the deal. One needs only listen to Astarion reacting to you dropping a temple on him and reviving him afterwards to see why he won. It does make me feel bad for Ben Starr though, whose raw performance as Clive Rosfield was sublime. ANY other year and he would've won.
@@FiendMatadorSlayerOfNoobs Couldn't agree more! He brought his beyond A game, he really gave it his all, like he always does. Neil can do it all when it comes to acting, there's not a single thing he's bad at. Yeah I saw the clip of the building falling on top of him, that was so funny and so well done, Neil is incredible, I can't describe it. Even though there are a couple scenes that stood out, especially that scene, we have to thank Neil's performance as a whole for it. Ben Starr was incredible too, not wrong there, but Neil just took it, although the videos contributed to it, we have to thank Neil for the overall performance, if we didn't have Neil's performance, I don't think we would have got the videos.
My wife played BG3 before me and had like, an unsettling amount of love for Astarion. Then I got around to playing it, and yeah, he’s amazing. A really layered, emotional performance. Neil captured the rawness right under Astarion’s devil-may-care facade perfectly.
I know him for 4 roles. Gavin and Kamski in Detroit Become Human, Nicholai in RE3R and Heisenberg in RE8. Gotta say, he was pretty good in all those roles. I liked hearing his voice. I haven't heard his performance in BG3 yet, but I'm sure that he was real good in that one. So I'm not mad at all for him getting that.
@@spiraljumper74 Couldn't have said it better myself, Neil can do it all. The man is very good at adapting and improvising on the fly and he's able to portray every emotion flawlessly. When it comes to acting, there isn't a single thing he's bad at, least with what I've seen and his with his skills and range.
I can’t believe celebs like Anthony and simu could make trash jokes for 5 minutes straight while award winners got 10 seconds. God those jokes were abysmal
Judges attack on COD was the best bit especially when he goes "Whaaaaaaaat" and laughs it off But Segas reveal did it for me i hope to god they are going to be good especially Shinobi
The Cid fan girling was adorable 😁I often play Cid in fan Dubs, comic dubs and Fan animations, so It's great to see my boy get so much love. Let's just hope he tells Cloud to "Sit Down And Drink His God Damned Tea!"
My heart sank when they said “that’s not all there is tonight for Final Fantasy fans!” And then it was a freaking Apex Legends collab instead of FFIX Remake. I literally felt like I witnessed Kuja evaporate my hopes for an announcement, though I guess they didn’t want to sap Rebirth’s hype.
Meh, that doesn't really track. He made a joke at the expense at other devs on the night they're supposed to celebrate developers. It was incredibly unprofessional and kind of a dick move. Most of the people wprking on MW3 would have worked insanely hard. Its just they weren't given as much time to develop it as they needed to. The campaign oflbviously was a problem, but we can change that going forward by not buying this one. Not by shitting on the ground level devs.
@@alexlyster3459as much as I agree you don’t “not buy” COD, it’s something every grandparent and parents buy every holiday season and sells millions every year regardless of problems present, even some of the worst cod games sell the same. Speaking out sometimes is the best option, but yes it was unprofessional IN this instance.
It's a shame the Game Awards is falling further into the pitfall of giving more attention to the celebrities in attendance than to the actual artists who are being celebrated.
I highly recommend you max to play Alan Wake 2, it's fantastic. Its weird, the story its well build, the narration insane, etc. and you dont need to play the first one to understand the second.
I loved the reveal for FF7 Rebirth, but I thought it was kind of weird how they didn’t reveal the first minute and a half of the trailer, and THEN do the musical portion.
Yeah I agree. But hey we got the whole trailer anyways later so it's not the worst thing. Just weird that they uploaded the full trailer not too long after the thing.
Pretty good show this year, easily my favourite next to 2017's. The industry problems really should have been addressed, though. Not asking for a five minute speech, but a minute's silence for everyone who lost their jobs would've been nice.
2:04:36 Just for a bit of extra context. This game seems to follow the first person to be the class of Berserker named Khazan. In the DFO (the MMO) he was a boss you can fight in a raid event and was known to be the reason why all slayers have the Kazan or "Ghost Demon" (that arm thats the wrong color) syndrome. Edit: I have just noticed that there is actually a longer form of the trailer on UA-cam on their Channel(?). It has a bit more combat and a bit more cinematics.
If it had just been Kojima presenting a teaser for a new horror game, I’d be excited, but not like, floored. It’s not that I don’t love his games, just that so early it’s impossible to speculate about them because of his love of cultivating a mystique around his projects. But when Jordan Peele stepped out that door, I got fucking hyped. They both have such specific and effective approaches to horror that I can’t wait to see what weird shit they come up with together. Like, that is an incredibly unexpected collab, but also incredibly exciting.
Of all the reveals, honestly, Persona 3 was the one I screamed loudest for. That was the one that introduced me to what has become my favorite RPG series of all time, and I cannot WAIT to play it again!
@@john_7000honestly you can say that for many persona games, but if we’re being fans of RPGs they are unique in their own way which gives a lot of cred in my book because we see a lot of repetition. I will also say though on the same coin the persona games are slowly turning into very samey looking games each modern entry as we go forward, Metaphor seems to be the creators getting a refresh though which seems like a good idea I know I’m rambling but I hope they had a lot of creative freedom to do what they wanted because refreshed creators create better games especially in long series.
Max you should definitely play Alan Wake 2. I don't know whose been telling you not too but if you liked Resident Evil then Alan Wake is the next best thing, even better in my opinion. Check it out
Really enjoyed this game awards. Some very cool reveals and the performances were amazing. Im very satisfied with what games got what rewards. That being said the fact the award winners only got 30 secs on stage is ridiculous… not respectful I get not wanting them to be up there all day but… *30* secs… the F
Do they know? "Did they have a stadium" Yes, the biggest one in South Korea. Plus the event rotates city every other stage of the event and rotates country every year. Last year the finals was one Chase Center San Francisco😂 There is a reason League Worlds has been winning the esports event of the year category since it was created in 2018
I was not expecting to hear Max talk about Ironmouse lol, two of my favorite creators. The entire sequence after she showed up on screen is hilarious. Besides that, I'm so EXCITED for all those SEGA games to come out
@@ruick78 We had some in the 6th and 7th generation consoles (PS2 to PS3) era but the game awards was not a thing at that time nor gaming was as mainstream as now.
Maybe I missed something but I wish they focused more on that. It was like "cool, anyway next award" And they didn't even play a FF16 song at the Orchestra which is weird.
They should’ve sold less ads and let the award winners speak for longer. People were memeing last year about Judge’s long ass speech, nobody was mad. This was a clear case of overcorrection and came off as tasteless.
Yeah, I think this year Judge was very aware of it and he poked fun at it as well. But I don't think that's a reason to not give the winners more time for their speaches. Sure, I don't expect a 5 minute speech but at least give them something to work with.
@cro8176That type of attitude is everything that’s been going wrong with the industry for the last fifteen years. That’s the kind of uncritical, consumption-focused worldview that’s caused short term corporate profits to soar with anti-customer, anti-worker policies, while exploiting and materially harming the artists and laborers who actually make the products. I don’t mean to go off on your over what I’m sure was an intentionally flippant and edgy comment. But like, goddamn bro, have some basic fucking respect.
@@venomshake8187 yeah and I also saw the had the promter saying "wrap it up" that's so disrespectful man. I hope that next year the winners can at least be given 2 minutes for a speech.
Pretty great show, but I still don't get the whole "Zelda always wins at the game awards" narrative max and the doods always bring up. BOTW was the first and only GOTY win for Nintendo and Zelda. Even when max went through all the previous years winners and such, he saw that first hand but kept up that narrative
Max and his friends are just biased against Zelda. Skyward Sword lost to Skyrim, TOTK lost to BG3. Only BOTW won in 2017. I love them, but it’s easily one of the more annoying things about them. Don’t care if they don’t care for Zelda on a personal level, but the way they talk about it is just dumb
Real happy someone mentioned this. I love Max and his friends but their stance on there somehow being a Nintendo/Zelda bias makes no sense. My friends and I would watch game awards shows all throughout the late 2000s and early 2010s knowing damn well we wouldn't be seeing a single Nintendo game win or even be nominated for anything the entire show apart from the family category. BOTW was Nintendo's one single dub through ALL of the 2000s and 2010s. (and that goes for all of Nintendo's franchises- Wind Waker and Metroid Prime lost to GTA Vice City, Twilight Princess lost to Oblivion, Mario Galaxy lost to BioShock, Skyward Sword lost to Skyrim, Tropical Freeze doesn't get nominated for anything, none of their games have ever won best score including Smash, the list goes on. If anything Nintendo has had a long history of being the snubbed underdog and BOTW was their big break.)
2:57:18 poor Sean's still as socially awkward as he was back when he did interviews for No man's Sky. 2:58:44 somebody please stop him, last time he did this his whole studio got flooded, LITERALLY! 😂
OK Hear me out Max, I also was not in the BG3 hype train to play it. However I made a bet with my friend. The bet was if Zelda won GOTY then he would have to have to play it, and his bet of course was if BG3 won I would have to play it. Now here's the kicker, I actually like the damn game. It gives me FF Tactics vibes.
genshin fan here baldurs gate 3 community was pretty chill and we're pretty happy about it winning (we are well aware it is a better game hahaha) last year some of the sonic frontiers fans went and provoked the genshin community, leading to the genshin fans retaliating in a bigger number than they usually would
I feel SImmons overfixates on story when judging Zelda when it's all about the vibes and execution the reason it clicks with people so much, and I am not even the biggest Zelda fan, just played a few but games aren't bound to be narrative driven.
I love TGA but the fact that people couldn't have a reasonable amount of time to have their speeches, not even GOTY got to talk that long, like c'mon! They spent more time on celebs and stuff and that fr took away the spotlight for the people who actually produced and developed these amazing games that /won/ awards! That really has to change next TGA.Reveals were cool though, and I'm super happy that Hi-Fi Rush won at least two things! 🎉
About No Rest For the Wicked, moon Studios is Independent and Stars indipendent, but Ori is a Xbox IP. So moon can decide wherever they publish their next Games. And they dont have interest to be a treadmill, they Just Show their incredible Art craftsmanship to the Players. No Rest For the Wicked is in development since 2014 and Fully handcrafted. Like they du their own Spin on metroidvania they now wanna revolutionize the ARPG Genre. One writer from Final Fantasy is Part of the Project, Jason Graves and Gareth Coker Doing Music, the Theme Song we prayed For Summer is on Spotify. Dont sleep on this Game.
With the Nioh games, they unfortunately expect you to know Japanese history to be able to follow the story. Same with Wo Long, they expect you to know the Three Kingdoms history to be able to actually piece together what's happening. A lot of it could be solved with like just a few paragraphs in a "History" tab. They already waste resources writing lore for every monster and demon in these games, the least they could do is explain what's happening inbetween missions.
I honestly didn't care about the awards it self only watched it for the game reveals some I am excited for others not so much and see which game will win game of the year which honestly should have been breath of the wild in my opinion other than that everything else was pretty decent game awards
Summary: Good reveals, Good ads for new games, FF7R2, Kojima got 6 minutes on stage while each dev that won an award got 30 seconds to give a speech. Appalling
To bet against Baldurs Gate 3 as GOTY is wild... Of course it is GOTY! The gaming year 2023 was overall really good, but this game is a standout and not just for THIS year, could be a game of the decade. I am so happy that they show all the other billion heavy companies that you can indeed create awesome games without microtransactions, 500 patches in 4 weeks, great reviews (without buying these magazines upfront) AND satisfy the most important part in this industry: The gamers/players! They are the customers in the end!
10 outta 10 awards with the surprise games, and my fav games were recognized. Alan Wake 2's, Herald of Darkness, facking incredible!!! (They deserved every award! And my other fav, cyberpunk 2077, baldurs gate 3!!!) This event in the total amount of surprises, between Blade, Sega Classics, New Mana game and much much more etc, far better than Summer of Game fest (not e3,) this to me was the E3 this year was missing, IMO. -10 to all of the crybabies constantly blaming Geoff for the world's issues.
Highlight was SEGA's announcements, Prince of Persia, Usual June, Zau, and No Rest for the Wicked for me. Sucks for about what I thought would be a one-off joke drowning out speeches with music on Judge became the norm.
The Game Awards was 18% acceptance speeches for the actual award winners. If Geoff wants to come out every novemeber and show a bunch of new reveals whilst getting to fanboy over Kojima, he should just run a Winter Games Fest and stop pretending he gives a shit about awarding those in the industry for their efforts. More time went to a puppet and Captain America telling random people to shut up that award winners.
@@mr.awesome6011that's Captain America he has been for years in the comics together With Steve Roger (there's been recent comics of both as captain america) and he is the MCU current Captain America
The constantly talking over everything about something completely different is such a common and disappointing habit of "streamers" now it seems. It's not really a reaction if you're not reacting to what you're immediately watching. This is why I avoid "reaction" videos at all, everyone just wants to hear themselves talk. 👎🏻
@@sueanncanfield5228 yesssss. This puts me off so much lol . I came to see how max would react to that moment and they completely missed it , they werent even looking at the screen so I don't think they even caught it . And obviously they were mid conversation. Either way he wouldn't have cared cause of his bias towards FFXVI. Definitely the worst playthrough I've seen from him. He became so disinterested, but the problem was he was taking the piss out of everything instead of being neutral. Really came off as a douchebag
At least on the Nintendo front, you can definitely tell that Reggie & Sakurai are Geoff’s only connections with the company. The rest of Nintendo didn’t give him squat.
My all time favorite games are FF7 and RE4.. I just love Alan Wake 2.. and Poets of the Fall is one of my favorite bands.. Thank yoy guys for being so polite and never laughed that song. I was so worried :)
Max you definetly need to play Alan Wake 2. It is a work of art by itself. So much love and care got put in to that game. It's mind bending, beautiful and scared the shit out of me. What a game
I'm so glad Judge jabbed Activision and apparently they are mad at him. They needed to hear this, he might be unimportant in the grand scheme of things, but a jab like this on a big event like TGA gotta hurt. Also TGA needs to improve. Giving so little time to recipients and not presenting some awards on stage is just wrong. While at the same time giving so much time to celebs or Kojima (I don't really get it why so many make him into some sort of gaming messiah, he is no one special imo) who got like 10min on stage. Also please (this is not just you, but most of reactors) don't talk during those short minutes while recipients give their speeches. You guys laughing while Swen was thanking the people that died during the development and their lead cinematic animator died just a month ago felt quite wrong.
@@lionzcrown1702 The one nomination it got was in a category it was already out of contention with. Like basically every game in Best RPG had a better shot of winning
At least this year it didnt feel like it was a battle between 2 huge games with everything else being filler. Felt like each category had one game that fit it, and won Also, World of Goo 2 is a thing now, so thats cool.
I totally agree!!! To many movie actors that awards don't need!!! Give more time to developers to express their winning for the night. Yes, coolers than actor's Alana!!! I don't watch the game awards anymore! I am still a gamer!!! I fast forward thru the video after it posted on UA-cam to only the games!!! Do better for the developers!!!
Before watching: Don't really like the VGA. I'm here for one reaction only. 26:45 ALAS MAX OUR COMMUNITY HAS PENETRATED THE AWARDS AND A VTUBER HAS WON AN AWARD! It's as I've said time and time again, once you've stepped one toe in our rabbit hole, WE'RE ONLY GETTING STARTED. The community continues to expand and we continue to take over everything we see with cute anime girls and crazy, highly questionable anime boys pathing the way to greater heights. And tell Simmons we can always save a spot for him in our hole, just remember to tell him that once he gets in, HE'S NEVER GETTING OUT.
I don't know how you didn't cry from hearing Nobuo Uematsu's new theme for FF7 Rebirth and all that accompanying footage. I know I did... And I'm not even as big a FF7 fan as you
Hideo Kojima's new OD game = the hungry PURPLE DINOSAUR = OMG it's a BARNEY psychological horror game :P OOPS. OD = might possibly be a competition to Dead By Daylight 😁
as cool as the reveals were, I’m really disappointed at how every single award winner, even GOTY had only 30 seconds to give their speech along with a huge “wrap it up” sign for pretty much everyone to see. They focused more on celebrities (and Kojima) instead of the people who really worked their asses off to be on a stage like this, really shitty moves from them and I hope it changes next year cause it was unacceptable.
that's because of Judge last year lmao bro gave a whole monologue
Yeah they responded to much to last year long speeches
Don't you dare bad mouth Gonzo! @@cloudywolffluff

I'm pretty sure they gave more screentime to Simu Liu and Matthew McConaughey than they did the Larian guys accepting GOTY for Baldur's Gate or Eiji Aonuma accepting Best Action/Adventure for TOTK, which no offense to those actors, but that is goddamn depressing to think about. Sea of Stars winning Best Indie was read off like groceries in a list too
But hey Arkane's making Blade. Honestly really hyped about that one
Not sure if I'm that excited for an Arkane game with how hard they've messed up with Redfall. But maybe Blade will be their chance at redemption, especially since you're killing vampires in that game so it's almost poetic at this point.
3rd person and cross platform🤌🏾
The people who made redfall I think was a different subsidiary of Arkane, I believe the people who are making blade are the ones who did deathdloop and the dishonored series @@shai310
@@shai310 This is a different team. Arkane Austin made Prey and Redfall. Lyon did the Dishonored series and Deathloop so this is their next game after like 2 years
its depressing but also realistic. using the doods as an example, whenever there was a speech they didn't pay attention at all/talked over it. and tbh that's the same for the majority of viewers. this took over for e3 as the superbowl for games(watching commercials rather than the football game). and a lot of the viewers are only interested in the ads/announcements. they gotta keep the small attentionspan of the people on the show
So I’m the only one in my friend group who has played Alan Wake 2, while they all played Baldur’s Gate 3, and it was so fucking fun being the evil cackling villain swiping a few awards from them (all in good fun though).
That game is truly different and bizarre and fascinating, though. Norse mythology, Jungian Psychology, Hero’s Journey, Power Ballads, it’s all in there in a beautiful nonsensical package.

Why on earth did we get almost 3 straight minutes of gonzo the great being awkward, chasing chickens, and not understanding at all why he’s here and yet most if not all of the game developers who aren’t Kojima didn’t even get a minute.
Geoff Keighley and Hideo Kojima need to just fuck and get it over with.
I wish The Game Awards gave the devs and VAs a chance to talk about some behind the scenes stuff and how the games earned the awards they did. Instead it feels like the speeches are rushed, and most of the time is an advertising segment (as cool as it is to get new announcements and everything)
They were rushed, most had 30 seconds and even a screen telling them to "wrap it up" once they got over those 30 seconds
Its honestly so disheartening because it feels they wanted more celeb appeal because they didnt have any time limit at all and they invited so many more celebs compared to actual devs its ridiculous
Oh and obviously Kojima not included because they love Kojima too much ig, I mean, He is an insanely creative director dont get me wrong, but so were the guys that won other awards and specially GOTY and they didnt get the same treatment for some reason:/
@@EzKay_PX Let me be honest, these 'game awards' felt like Oscar for those boring Hollywood celeb to feel superior. Honestly, they should f**k off and stay in Oscar instead of invading Game Awards we gamers waited for years to stick out their crappy jokes and ego..
Late, but: I agree with some who have thrown it out that The Game Awards needs more performance categories, but...they just want the Lead/Supporting framework of the non-interactive media. Me? I'd want: Actor and Actress in a Sole/Primary Playable Character Role, Actor and Actress in a Secondary Playable Character Role and Actor and Actress in an NPC Role. Because all of those designations have, generally, different player expectations as to how they function, writing/performance wise.
Let's break down the Game Awards' performance winners under the two frameworks.
2014: Movie Framework: Leading. My Framework: Secondary Playable Character Role.
2015: Movie Framework: Leading. My Framework: NPC Role.
2016: Movie Framework: Leading. My Framework: Sole/Primary Playable Character Role.
2017: Movie Framework: Leading. My Framework: Sole/Primary Playable Character Role.
2018: Movie Framework: Leading. My Framework: Sole/Primary Playable Character Role.
2019: Movie Framework: Supporting. My Framework: NPC Role.
2020: Movie Framework: Leading. My Framework: Sole/Primary Playable Character Role.
2021: Movie Framework: Supporting. My Framework: NPC Role.
2022: Movie Framework: Leading. My Framework: Sole/Primary Playable Character Role.
2023: Movie Framework: Supporting. My Framework: Secondary Playable Character Role.

38:36 I went absolutely ecstatic when I heard Neil won, the man is so incredibly talented and yet he's so underrated. I love this man, he's such a good person too, he's honestly amazing, I look up to him as I'm an aspiring actor.
Neil absolutely killed the performance as Astarion. The combination of sass, improvisation, the sheer range of emotions he conveys AND how hilarious he can be sealed the deal.
One needs only listen to Astarion reacting to you dropping a temple on him and reviving him afterwards to see why he won.
It does make me feel bad for Ben Starr though, whose raw performance as Clive Rosfield was sublime. ANY other year and he would've won.
@@FiendMatadorSlayerOfNoobs Couldn't agree more! He brought his beyond A game, he really gave it his all, like he always does. Neil can do it all when it comes to acting, there's not a single thing he's bad at.
Yeah I saw the clip of the building falling on top of him, that was so funny and so well done, Neil is incredible, I can't describe it. Even though there are a couple scenes that stood out, especially that scene, we have to thank Neil's performance as a whole for it.
Ben Starr was incredible too, not wrong there, but Neil just took it, although the videos contributed to it, we have to thank Neil for the overall performance, if we didn't have Neil's performance, I don't think we would have got the videos.
My wife played BG3 before me and had like, an unsettling amount of love for Astarion. Then I got around to playing it, and yeah, he’s amazing. A really layered, emotional performance. Neil captured the rawness right under Astarion’s devil-may-care facade perfectly.
I know him for 4 roles. Gavin and Kamski in Detroit Become Human, Nicholai in RE3R and Heisenberg in RE8. Gotta say, he was pretty good in all those roles. I liked hearing his voice.
I haven't heard his performance in BG3 yet, but I'm sure that he was real good in that one. So I'm not mad at all for him getting that.
@@spiraljumper74 Couldn't have said it better myself, Neil can do it all. The man is very good at adapting and improvising on the fly and he's able to portray every emotion flawlessly. When it comes to acting, there isn't a single thing he's bad at, least with what I've seen and his with his skills and range.

Steeb definitely eating good
Judges attack on COD was the best bit especially when he goes "Whaaaaaaaat" and laughs it off
But Segas reveal did it for me i hope to god they are going to be good especially Shinobi
The Cid fan girling was adorable 😁I often play Cid in fan Dubs, comic dubs and Fan animations, so It's great to see my boy get so much love. Let's just hope he tells Cloud to "Sit Down And Drink His God Damned Tea!"
My heart sank when they said “that’s not all there is tonight for Final Fantasy fans!” And then it was a freaking Apex Legends collab instead of FFIX Remake. I literally felt like I witnessed Kuja evaporate my hopes for an announcement, though I guess they didn’t want to sap Rebirth’s hype.
People being mad at Judge for his jab and not at Activision for giving the devs a crap hand to begin with are why we get broken games at launch
Meh, that doesn't really track. He made a joke at the expense at other devs on the night they're supposed to celebrate developers. It was incredibly unprofessional and kind of a dick move. Most of the people wprking on MW3 would have worked insanely hard. Its just they weren't given as much time to develop it as they needed to.
The campaign oflbviously was a problem, but we can change that going forward by not buying this one. Not by shitting on the ground level devs.
@@alexlyster3459as much as I agree you don’t “not buy” COD, it’s something every grandparent and parents buy every holiday season and sells millions every year regardless of problems present, even some of the worst cod games sell the same. Speaking out sometimes is the best option, but yes it was unprofessional IN this instance.
It's a shame the Game Awards is falling further into the pitfall of giving more attention to the celebrities in attendance than to the actual artists who are being celebrated.
I highly recommend you max to play Alan Wake 2, it's fantastic. Its weird, the story its well build, the narration insane, etc. and you dont need to play the first one to understand the second.
I loved the reveal for FF7 Rebirth, but I thought it was kind of weird how they didn’t reveal the first minute and a half of the trailer, and THEN do the musical portion.
Same. Going straight into musical threw me off hard, I couldn’t focus on what was happening in the trailer.
Yeah I agree. But hey we got the whole trailer anyways later so it's not the worst thing. Just weird that they uploaded the full trailer not too long after the thing.
So stoked to see dragonball sparking zero finally get a trailer 🙌🏽
Pretty good show this year, easily my favourite next to 2017's. The industry problems really should have been addressed, though. Not asking for a five minute speech, but a minute's silence for everyone who lost their jobs would've been nice.
2:04:36 Just for a bit of extra context. This game seems to follow the first person to be the class of Berserker named Khazan.
In the DFO (the MMO) he was a boss you can fight in a raid event and was known to be the reason why all slayers have the Kazan or "Ghost Demon" (that arm thats the wrong color) syndrome.
Edit: I have just noticed that there is actually a longer form of the trailer on UA-cam on their Channel(?). It has a bit more combat and a bit more cinematics.
Thank you for the info!
1:34:40 hideo and Jordan Peele is a combo I never knew could be mind-blowing
If it had just been Kojima presenting a teaser for a new horror game, I’d be excited, but not like, floored. It’s not that I don’t love his games, just that so early it’s impossible to speculate about them because of his love of cultivating a mystique around his projects. But when Jordan Peele stepped out that door, I got fucking hyped. They both have such specific and effective approaches to horror that I can’t wait to see what weird shit they come up with together.
Like, that is an incredibly unexpected collab, but also incredibly exciting.
Give a listen to the podcast episode Kojima had Peele on... very interesting. That's if you haven't already lol

Of all the reveals, honestly, Persona 3 was the one I screamed loudest for. That was the one that introduced me to what has become my favorite RPG series of all time, and I cannot WAIT to play it again!
it's not even a reveal bro, it's just a trailer
If it wasn't revealed a few months before the awards, then i'd 100% agree
P3 is great game it just not my favorite, there are so many RPGs I played that are better
@@john_7000honestly you can say that for many persona games, but if we’re being fans of RPGs they are unique in their own way which gives a lot of cred in my book because we see a lot of repetition. I will also say though on the same coin the persona games are slowly turning into very samey looking games each modern entry as we go forward, Metaphor seems to be the creators getting a refresh though which seems like a good idea I know I’m rambling but I hope they had a lot of creative freedom to do what they wanted because refreshed creators create better games especially in long series.
Hope they release soon BG&E 20 Anniversary Edition !!!!!!!!!

They should’ve sold less ads and let the award winners speak for longer. People were memeing last year about Judge’s long ass speech, nobody was mad. This was a clear case of overcorrection and came off as tasteless.
Yeah, I think this year Judge was very aware of it and he poked fun at it as well. But I don't think that's a reason to not give the winners more time for their speaches. Sure, I don't expect a 5 minute speech but at least give them something to work with.
@@shai310him telling everyone to take their time no matter what was very telling. the Game awards this year was sloppy
@cro8176That type of attitude is everything that’s been going wrong with the industry for the last fifteen years.

@@venomshake8187 yeah and I also saw the had the promter saying "wrap it up" that's so disrespectful man. I hope that next year the winners can at least be given 2 minutes for a speech.
Pretty great show, but I still don't get the whole "Zelda always wins at the game awards" narrative max and the doods always bring up. BOTW was the first and only GOTY win for Nintendo and Zelda. Even when max went through all the previous years winners and such, he saw that first hand but kept up that narrative
Max and his friends are just biased against Zelda. Skyward Sword lost to Skyrim, TOTK lost to BG3. Only BOTW won in 2017.
I love them, but it’s easily one of the more annoying things about them. Don’t care if they don’t care for Zelda on a personal level, but the way they talk about it is just dumb
Real happy someone mentioned this. I love Max and his friends but their stance on there somehow being a Nintendo/Zelda bias makes no sense. My friends and I would watch game awards shows all throughout the late 2000s and early 2010s knowing damn well we wouldn't be seeing a single Nintendo game win or even be nominated for anything the entire show apart from the family category. BOTW was Nintendo's one single dub through ALL of the 2000s and 2010s.
(and that goes for all of Nintendo's franchises- Wind Waker and Metroid Prime lost to GTA Vice City, Twilight Princess lost to Oblivion, Mario Galaxy lost to BioShock, Skyward Sword lost to Skyrim, Tropical Freeze doesn't get nominated for anything, none of their games have ever won best score including Smash, the list goes on. If anything Nintendo has had a long history of being the snubbed underdog and BOTW was their big break.)
@@gregalamode There is blatant bias for Nintendo games. BOTW or Odyssey are nowhere as deserving of those scores.

OK Hear me out Max, I also was not in the BG3 hype train to play it. However I made a bet with my friend. The bet was if Zelda won GOTY then he would have to have to play it, and his bet of course was if BG3 won I would have to play it. Now here's the kicker, I actually like the damn game. It gives me FF Tactics vibes.
I wasn't on the hype train either. gotta it totally off a whim. best impulse buy ive ever made tbh
Watching this live was great. I think my fav reveals were blade & sega. Super sad no Hades 2 or Ed gameplay tho
genshin fan here
baldurs gate 3 community was pretty chill and we're pretty happy about it winning (we are well aware it is a better game hahaha)
last year some of the sonic frontiers fans went and provoked the genshin community, leading to the genshin fans retaliating in a bigger number than they usually would
I feel SImmons overfixates on story when judging Zelda when it's all about the vibes and execution the reason it clicks with people so much, and I am not even the biggest Zelda fan, just played a few but games aren't bound to be narrative driven.
I love TGA but the fact that people couldn't have a reasonable amount of time to have their speeches, not even GOTY got to talk that long, like c'mon! They spent more time on celebs and stuff and that fr took away the spotlight for the people who actually produced and developed these amazing games that /won/ awards! That really has to change next TGA.Reveals were cool though, and I'm super happy that Hi-Fi Rush won at least two things! 🎉

About No Rest For the Wicked, moon Studios is Independent and Stars indipendent, but Ori is a Xbox IP. So moon can decide wherever they publish their next Games. And they dont have interest to be a treadmill, they Just Show their incredible Art craftsmanship to the Players. No Rest For the Wicked is in development since 2014 and Fully handcrafted. Like they du their own Spin on metroidvania they now wanna revolutionize the ARPG Genre. One writer from Final Fantasy is Part of the Project, Jason Graves and Gareth Coker Doing Music, the Theme Song we prayed For Summer is on Spotify. Dont sleep on this Game.
With the Nioh games, they unfortunately expect you to know Japanese history to be able to follow the story. Same with Wo Long, they expect you to know the Three Kingdoms history to be able to actually piece together what's happening. A lot of it could be solved with like just a few paragraphs in a "History" tab. They already waste resources writing lore for every monster and demon in these games, the least they could do is explain what's happening inbetween missions.
I honestly didn't care about the awards it self only watched it for the game reveals some I am excited for others not so much and see which game will win game of the year which honestly should have been breath of the wild in my opinion other than that everything else was pretty decent game awards

The Game Awards was 18% acceptance speeches for the actual award winners. If Geoff wants to come out every novemeber and show a bunch of new reveals whilst getting to fanboy over Kojima, he should just run a Winter Games Fest and stop pretending he gives a shit about awarding those in the industry for their efforts. More time went to a puppet and Captain America telling random people to shut up that award winners.

They totally missed the funniest moment of the night when Ben starr got that light in his face . Too busy talking over everything
The constantly talking over everything about something completely different is such a common and disappointing habit of "streamers" now it seems. It's not really a reaction if you're not reacting to what you're immediately watching. This is why I avoid "reaction" videos at all, everyone just wants to hear themselves talk. 👎🏻

He became so disinterested, but the problem was he was taking the piss out of everything instead of being neutral. Really came off as a douchebag
They should use the wrap it up sign at the Oscars
At least on the Nintendo front, you can definitely tell that Reggie & Sakurai are Geoff’s only connections with the company. The rest of Nintendo didn’t give him squat.

I'm so glad Judge jabbed Activision and apparently they are mad at him. They needed to hear this, he might be unimportant in the grand scheme of things, but a jab like this on a big event like TGA gotta hurt. Also TGA needs to improve. Giving so little time to recipients and not presenting some awards on stage is just wrong. While at the same time giving so much time to celebs or Kojima (I don't really get it why so many make him into some sort of gaming messiah, he is no one special imo) who got like 10min on stage. Also please (this is not just you, but most of reactors) don't talk during those short minutes while recipients give their speeches. You guys laughing while Swen was thanking the people that died during the development and their lead cinematic animator died just a month ago felt quite wrong.
Yeah, and Kenny looks like that monster at the end of SMILE.

At least this year it didnt feel like it was a battle between 2 huge games with everything else being filler.
Felt like each category had one game that fit it, and won
Also, World of Goo 2 is a thing now, so thats cool.
I mean, most awards just went to BG3 and Alan wake. So yeah that basically happened again.
@@jairekambui7738 Not as much as Elden Ring and GoWR
Shame goty got such short speech while wasting time listening to Anthony Mackie lol
I totally agree!!! To many movie actors that awards don't need!!! Give more time to developers to express their winning for the night. Yes, coolers than actor's Alana!!! I don't watch the game awards anymore! I am still a gamer!!! I fast forward thru the video after it posted on UA-cam to only the games!!! Do better for the developers!!!
it would be crazy if Kojima collabed with Shintaro Kago
If Max plays AW2 I would try to gift subs every single one of those streams.
Before watching: Don't really like the VGA. I'm here for one reaction only.
26:45 ALAS MAX OUR COMMUNITY HAS PENETRATED THE AWARDS AND A VTUBER HAS WON AN AWARD! It's as I've said time and time again, once you've stepped one toe in our rabbit hole, WE'RE ONLY GETTING STARTED. The community continues to expand and we continue to take over everything we see with cute anime girls and crazy, highly questionable anime boys pathing the way to greater heights. And tell Simmons we can always save a spot for him in our hole, just remember to tell him that once he gets in, HE'S NEVER GETTING OUT.
I'm very happy she won that category :>
Whoever watches vtubers are certified losers and weebs…. Tho weebs they Probably wouldn’t deny
OMG Blade 🤯🤯🤯
I don't know how you didn't cry from hearing Nobuo Uematsu's new theme for FF7 Rebirth and all that accompanying footage. I know I did... And I'm not even as big a FF7 fan as you
I found it trying too hard to be emotional to the point where it just didn't hit at all for me
Not through chat, but I'd love for Max to play AW2
Hideo Kojima's new OD game = the hungry PURPLE DINOSAUR = OMG it's a BARNEY psychological horror game :P OOPS. OD = might possibly be a competition to Dead By Daylight 😁
3:10:50 Guilty Gear, Elphelt, we kof now...
Can we all appreciate how Sydnee Goodman has been killing it for over a decade
Is that the hot chick?
Her legs..
