    I’m not really excited about anything because I don’t care much for AAA but it‘s funny to me that a show like the Game Awards was never about the awards but just an excuse to show some world premier trailers.

    They keep telling us how this is a celebration of this year while trailers for games in the coming years take center stage. It feels more like the most cynical funeral of old games while the new ones get coronated with their announcements.

    And I know this is comment isn‘t deep or profound to anybody who ever watched the Game Awards but I just find it comical every year.

    On the other hand, winning an award from this show has a tangible effect on game sales, so it's nice when a game like Baldur's Gate 3 can beat the mainstays like The Legend of Zelda and earn that bump for themselves.

    It‘s definitely clever to wrap the Award show into a Superbowl type of event for the gaming industry. It ensures there will be a lot of eyes on award winners. But they still have to share the attention with the new shiny things that are being advertised so it‘s always a little awkward. It‘s bizarre but part of the experience and let‘s be honest, most of don‘t care about popularity contests. We tune in for the trailers.

    Personally I'm hoping for

    • Larian's next game announcement
    • info on Light no Fire
    • anything by fromsoftware
    • a new final fantasy game that isn't based on ff7
    • the new bioshock game that was rumored for years now

    Absolutely nothing.

    I've never cared for it - the entire show's awards and announcements could be YouTube Shorts that I can pick and choose to watch, and I'd get exactly the same thing out of it.

    I wait a day and then check for a megathread with bullet points, then see if there is anything of interest to me.

    Steam box price and release date, more Slay the Spire 2 info, next Zelda teaser. All very unlikely.

    Larian

    Fromsoft

    Nintendo

    Those are probably the only developers in the AAA world that are not selling money printing skinner boxes but the games are still fun.

    Indie devs don’t have money to advertise on that shitty show.

    I think award shows are head-ass narcissist nonsense.

    So, none of it.
