It’s not, but it’s sad that games that get awards are already overhyped and overshadow some really good indie games that might be better than some of these AAA titles
Talk about what you like. Support people who dig deeper than most. The corporate committees have no effect on you, and their hold on discourse can be mitigated, at least for those who are also tired of it.
I'll tell you hwut, my enjoyment of the latest call of duty and mountain dew has definitely dropped since I found out it wasn't gonna win GOTY (brought to you by pizza hut).
The Game Awards were always kind of a Year In Review Advertisement but with E3 getting dropped geoff keighley kinda just. grabbed the capitalist baton and ran.
I grew up playing the "Bad Games" never mentioned and that's why I can't take awards seriously like most people do. Games can have objectively bad flaws but I personally belive almost anyone can find enjoyment in a game without it's Accolades mentioned.
I will definitely pick up a game I may not have otherwise if it wins GOTY but I’m not, like, throwing away and uninstalling games I like if they don’t.
One of my favorite games of all time is Star Ocean 4 and that game sucks 🤣

I feel like it’s about pointing out the appreciation.
