Glad that indie-games get some recognition.

 

Lmao I knew Last of Us 2 was gonna win despise everyone hating it so much.

 

Hate on TLOU2 all you want but it's critics we're talking about.

 

so predictability walked away with the most awards?

 

It's not that I don't like controversial subject matter, or gore, or anything-I just think it's a bad story. Hell, I would've given Best Narrative to ACNH before I give it to Last of Us 2.
But yeah, it's not like I didn't expect this.

 

I really was kinda hoping Pokemon Cafe Mix might beat Among Us but I knew that was a pipe dream.

 

FInally fortnite did not won anything but last of us did and its ****

 

Fortnite is only decent.

 

last of us did and its ****

Finally something we can agree on
