Astro bot and balatro make sense. I hope balatro wins.

Black myth is Chinese propaganda or psyOp. Has to be. People did not seem to care for this game?

Erd is dlc which is BS. It will probably win cus these games are cult status.

FF7 is weird. 1 part of many in a remake. People seemed pretty mid about it?

Metaphor felt weird in the demo. These also reach cult status. I could see this winning though with the added recency bias.

Kinda disappointed that Pacific Drive wasn’t nominated for indie game of the year, I think it deserves a spot at least.

echodot,

Pacific Drive is on the list.

No Satisfactory, V Rising, Core Keeper, Throne and Liberty in any of the categories. Probably because they did not pay to get into the list. But we got remake of Silen Hill 2 in many of them and a DLC as GOTY. Sony will win because they bought the contest after Concord flop or dude from Balatro because he poker played all his earnings to make his dreams come true.

Eyck_of_denesle,

    I assume that early access games are in the running when they exit EA. Presumably, that’s when they’re at their strongest. Doesn’t seem to me like it’d be fair to treat them as being entered when they enter EA, as they aren’t fully developed yet.

    How can Shadow of ErdTree be a contender for game of the year when it’s a DLC/expansion pack?

    EarMaster,
    @EarMaster@lemmy.world avatar

    Because you can game it?

    ampersandrew,

    It’s bigger than lots of full games and has a proper beginning/middle/end. In the old days, it would have just been a sequel.

    overload,

    I love Elden Ring, but a lot of the asset work on making a game is done for the devs when they go to work on DLC. Not sure if its right to compare with games that had to make a full game from scratch. Haven’t played shadow of the erdtree yet though, maybe it is transformative.

    GoodEye8,

    Assets get reused all the time. Elden Ring base game is reusing assets from Sekiro and Dark Souls 3. I haven’t played Rebirth but I’m pretty sure it’s also reusing assets from the previous Final Fantasy remake.

    ampersandrew,
    @ampersandrew@lemmy.world avatar

    Asset reuse happens all the time even between sequels.

    They adjusted the rules this year I believe, they now allow DLCs in GOTY, and also things like new seasons to games. It is dumb, and I personally think it removes what little credibility the game awards had(which wasn’t a lot to me).

    Will catch up on all the adverts that are if interest the next day.

    One of these is not like the other…

    Kinda rooting for it to win

    sag,

    Balatro?

    illi,

    I meant Balatro, yes. Didn’t play it (didn’t play the others either hah) but would be interesting to see it win. And I hear it’s quite good

    Any one of those 6 could win and I wouldn’t be mad. Great year

    @ampersandrew@lemmy.world avatar

    Black Myth: Wukong would surprise me, but the other 5 all have a real shot.

    Ashtear,

    Considering it’s a press award, I’d be shocked if one of the lowest reviewed games ever to get nominated won. Feels like compensating for none of these being huge sellers (which might also be part of the reason that DLC is in there). And even then, BM:W only sold one out of four outside of China. Says a lot about the state of Western AAA gaming this year.

    ampersandrew,
    @ampersandrew@lemmy.world avatar

    The state of AAA gaming is that releases slowed way down, resulting in way less output, which means you’re going to have fewer winners, by the numbers. Not every year can be like last year.

    Ashtear,

    I was specifically referring to quality. There were several underperformers this year.

    ampersandrew,
    @ampersandrew@lemmy.world avatar

    Quality or sales, I meant it the same way.

    Grangle1, do games w The Game Awards 2024 Nominees Announced

    I would imagine Astro Bot and Balatro would have to be the frontrunners given their reception and popularity.

    Most of the nominees were just not deserving (through an the categories) ngl

    for me its Talos Principle 2

    Destraight, do games w The Game Awards announces its 2023 nominees

    How can Alan wake 2 even be up there? I have never even heard of it or seen gameplay of it. Baldurs gate 3 is going to win it anyways. It’s the best game of all

    EighthLayer, do gaming w Game of the Year | Nominees
    @EighthLayer@lemmy.world avatar

    Baldur’s Gate 3 should win, but it won’t. It’ll be Zelda or Spider-Man.

    Mario Wonder is a fantastic game, but it has absolutely no business being on this list.

    richisawesome,
    @richisawesome@mstdn.games avatar

    @pixelscript @HowSwayy what utter bollocks, Mario Wonder is by far the best of the bunch. Outstanding game and the best 2D entry since 1991.
