If Smash Ultimate wins, Dragon Quest wins too following Kirkhope’s logic.


So I approve.

That's the beauty of Smash.

If it wins, a lot of franchises will be indirectly awarded.

Here's how Persona 5 can actually win the GOTY

 

[Will]

I mean, what’s their competition? Race with Ryan?

Don't make something so cursed happen.

Who in here would be up for a discord server for the social threads direct and tga reactions?

If I can figure out how to get Discord working on this computer without needing to use a VPN, I might.

Wii Fit suddenly finds itself getting a new game and winning GOTY next Game Awards

Let’s do this contrera.
P5 and DQ will finally get the award they deserve.

 

[SneakyLink]

Roselia needs no fake 4chan leaks to her name.

Because she's my current most wanted Pokémon to join Smash!

So how’s everyone’s day going so far? Been inactive on the site for quite a while.

Oh, hey, nice to meet ya!(gesus that stupid rap won't get out of my head ararharhahr)

I guess you could say I'm the local obscure card game shiller around here

Do you like card games, by any chance?
(I was going to make an ASDF movie reference here from the whole "Do you like Lemons" skit but knowing me it would turn out like crap an hour in)

Honestly waiting for the system to flop.

So since I was on the topic of Jump Force, I looked at some of the DLC characters, and uh...

I really hope this game doesn't win.

 

[MooMew64]

From what I've heard, Stadia has like, 4-5 seconds of input lag when trying to do anything.

It's kinda like if everything you played was Smash quickplay.

Jump Force did wrong by my boy Sanji. A most heinous crime that cannot be forgiven.

 

[Seanapotamus]

Alright boys and girls, I've decided on my votes. Here is my ballot:

Spoiler: My votes (Don't flame me pls)

• Game of the Year: Smash Ultimate (Resident Evil 2 was a close second)
• Best Game Direction: Resident Evil 2
• Best Narrative: Control
• Best Art Direction: Gris (Link's Awakening was a close second tbh)
• Best Score: Devil May Cry 5 (surprised Smash isn't in it, but then again not all of it are original remixes)
• Best Sound Design: Resident Evil 2
• Best Performance: Norman Reedus in Death Stranding
• Games for Impact: Gris
• Best Ongoing Game: Final Fantasy XIV
• Best Indie Game: Goose Game *HONK!*
• Best Mobile Game: COD Mobile (this was a random pick, as I honestly don't give a **** about mobile gaming)
• Best Community Support: Final Fantasy XIV
• Best VR Game: Beat Saber
• Best Action Game: Devil May Cry 5
• Best Action/Adventure Game: Resident Evil 2
• Best RPG: Final Fantasy XIV
• Best Fighting Game: Jump Force Smash Ultimate
• Best Family Game: Smash Ultimate
• Best Strategy Game: Three Houses
• Best Sports/Racing Game: CTR
• Best Multiplayer Game: Modern Warfare (if only Smash was a nominee...)
• Fresh Indie Game: Gris
• Best Esports Event: EVO
• The other awards regarding content creators and ESports (besides events) I just simply guessed, as I'm rather indifferent towards those.

Can't wait until the 12th! I'm willing to sit through a lot of talking.

Edit: Missed a few awards

tfw you remember Sakurai and Kojima are actually really good friends irl

so it has come to this?

 

[TheMightyP]

What's wrong with buu?

Not sure if you're asking me what's wrong with Buu as in you genuinely don't know, or if that's rhetorical because Buu genuinely looks frightening.

 

[MooMew64]

Meanwhile I'm over here with my GotY being Luigi's Mansion 3, lol.

Honestly hoping Smash wins it, though. It should even be a strong contender for game of the gen, in my opinion.

 

[Will]

i mean, those are legitimate faces buu makes

i fail to see the problem other than the realistic models being ugly on everybody

 

[Raxxel]

Yeah see the problem is the realistic models make it so that Buu's expression, realistic teeth and all, is ****ing grotesque to look at.

 

[TheMightyP]

It's more so in the fact that the realistic models that look terrible on everybody looks noticably worse on Buu because of his mannerisms and expressions are made for a specific, cartoony artsyle. Like, most other models dip into uncanny territory, but Buu just goes past that because if how poorly this design choice fits him.

also, just realized Pokemon SWSH got completely denied in terms of nominations

not even best RPG, lol

 

[Schnee117]

It didn't meet the cut-off. Same reason Star Wars is absent.

GotY awards should be done in late January/early February so some titles don't have to fall into next year's show

 

[Lamperouge]

You guys seriously think that Smash is going to win GOTY?

That's cute.

Spoiler

...Yes, I'm still voting for Smash shut up

 

[Captain Shwampy]

LM3 deserves a lot more cred

Game almost looks like a animated movie at points
I wonder if nintendo ever gets jealous over Next Level Games having better understanding of HD game development than most of their own devs

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

also, just realized Pokemon SWSH got completely denied in terms of nominations

because it just came out a few days ago

 

[Metal Shop X]

osby Ramen Tengoku @Bolderousness SneakyLink @Wademan94 Metal Shop X are ya’ll watching and reacting to the Game Award live around here on Discord?

It would be awesome if we could react to it together and have a fun time as in E3.

I tend to react to announcement alone first (unless there is something really big), then talk about it afterward. That, and I think I might be sleeping when the game award begin (timezone, etc..), so sorry, but I don't think I be there on discord.

LM3 is a masterpiece when it comes to visuals, but I'm gonna hardcore disagree about Nintendo's teams not understanding HD development when Mario Odyssey, BotW, Splatoon, and Animal Crossing all look pretty fantastic.

Heck, Kirby is also pretty dang spiffy (although that's HAL).

It’s alright!

Man, thinking about the Game Awards coming up is crazy. Where did the year go?

You could also say the same about last year as well.

What exactly is the cut-off? Cause it's weird to me on how Death Stranding is part of Game Awards despite coming out 7 days before Sword and Shield.

 

[Deleted member]

Man, thinking about the Game Awards coming up is crazy. Where did the year go?

This has legit been the best year of my whole life and I’m not exaggerating.

Literally 95% of it when right.

 

[Sari]

My noms:

Spoiler

GOTY: Smash
Fighting Game: Smash
Family Game: Smash yet again
Sports/Racing: Crash Nitro-Fueled
Strategy: Fire Emblem Three Houses

I didn't feel too confident about the other categories so I didn't really vote in them too much.

Maybe I was being too ambitious but I wish Three Houses got more noms. I feel like best music/score would've been an easy nom for it.

 

[nessdeltarune00]

Idk if this is a hot take, but I will say it anyways.

I’m very glad Geoff Keighley is the one who is running the VGAs. I feel like if it was any other run of the mill, corporate business suit, Call of Duty would be nominated every year.

Not only that, but he has managed to turn the event into practically E3 mini. As a result, the event is an absolute hype fest that I look forward to each year.
