Who will be GOTY 2025?
>>719392724Silent Hill f...
kirby air riders
Definitely not Shinobi, since Ninja Gaiden 4 exists with 90% of the same gameplay, but done better, cheaper, and released a month prior.Surely the answer is Tetris TGM4
Bro forgot Ninchad Gaiden 4
>>719392965I meant to say Ninja Gaiden Ragebound, which I keep thinking as 4 since it's the fourth 2d entry*>>719392971I don't expect this to win no matter how awesome it may end up being, because journies can't into action games.
>>719392724Probably Expedition, with Silksong tailing it right after.
>>719392724E33 its pretty obvious
>>719393028Oh you're just talking about Geoff's award show.
>>719393065Expedition won't win.It's too non woke. All their employees are white people. They don't have a single DEI hire or nigger. Also none of the women in the game are ugly hags. Can't have sexy women in gaming win or it's sexist and only caters to the "male gaze".All the woke judges will never vote for this game. This game must fail for the woke agenda. In fact, this game should be banned to protect children.
>>719392724Expedition 33 and it's not even close lol
>>719393195>french>not woke(X) Doubt
>predicting GOTY for games yet to even be releasedyou are everything that's wrong with video games in 2025
Expedition 33 and its not a competition. Straight forward, well told and voiced acted story will not lose to Silksong. Also Blue Prince is 92 which is the second highest reviewed game this year.
>>719393195>A hapa>A gypsy>A FrenchwomanHow is that not diverse enough?
the shart ages wont even get nominated lol
>>719392724Borderlands 4 but nobody will ever believe me until it's too late
>>719393359Randy... buy an ad
>>719393239The french literally invented the Far Right
>>719393028Sekiro won
>>719392724Don't care for video game oscar shitshoe
>>719392869More like...Dark Souls f right
>>719392971Yea it sure win goty(goyslop of the year)
>>719393195Sciel has a lot of sex and still loves her husband. Looks pretty 2025 to me.
>>719393279>Expedition>Well told he said
>>719393195>non woke>NTR mentioned literally in the first 10 minutes of the game
>>719393314You'll see.I forgot to mention KCD2. I hope you're not TOO angry against Vavra...
E33 is super mediocre but you can never count out how stupid normies are
why the FUCK is doom even in that image nigga it's not in the conversation at all
>>719393956OP (a massive faggot) told me he loves the rich lore it adds to the series.
>doom>shinobi
>>719393516I'm just autistically obsessed with looter shooters and excited about how this one might fix everything wrong with 3
>>719394006>tfw Painkiller coming to absolutely BTFO of doom in October
>>719393558>Sekiro>Action gamePick one.
>enjoyed the bf6 beta>just beat wuchang, 8/10>EX33, KCD2, Khazan, and Wukong earlier this year>tried MGS snek eater yesterday (never played an mgs before) and that shit was kinda ass)need something to play over this long weekend now since i was planning to stealth in mgs but that shit actually just suckshelp me /v/ what should i nolife this weekend
>>719393529okay? germany is one of the most cucked countries now
>>719392724>Doom The Flop AgesEmbarrassing disappointment. Maybe it'll win best sound design or some retarded shit like that. Replace it with Kingdom Cum Dumpster 2, and it's an actual GOTY contender (even though it sucked!)>SilksongThe most likely winner.>ShinobiReplace that shit with Ninja Gaiden 4.>E33It might be a coin toss between this game and Silksong. Maybe if Silksong isn't too hard for gayme jewrnos, it could be an ez win.To reiterate, I think the serious contenders will be>KCD2>Silksong>NG4>E33Doom might win best sound design, because that's usually the award that gay flops receive. Shinobi will compete in one of the snowflake categories along with Ragebound.
>>719394053That's fair enough, I hope it turns out well
Expedition 33 has already been forgotten by the general gaming scene. Silksong will dominate people's attention until the end of the year unless it completely shits the bed.
>>719392724Death Stranding 2 has a far better chance than DOOM.Most likely Silksong then either E33 or DS2.
>>719394421They'll never let BASED KOJIMA win with a walking simulator, as much as I love DS2 it hurts knowing DS will only be appreciated by yutes in 20 years.
>>719394421Oh yeah. DS2 might snub the win because Geoff Keighley LOVES sucking Kojima's tiny jap pecker.
>>719394549>They'll never let BASED KOJIMA winThe biggest Kojima cocksucker is in charge of the GOTY show
>>719394549>>719394592What else could Sony push for their PS5 to win?Nintendo is most likely to push Donkey Kong but could maybe go another way trying to get Switch 2 into people's attention with a GOTY winning game.But if Sony wants to try and use a GOTY winner to push PS5s what even can they try besides Death Stranding 2?I am guessing:SilksongE33Donkey KongDeath Stranding 2(random literally who game because the awards don't want to look too much like company paid ads)
>>719393195Expedition 33 is the most shilled game of all time; it will win
>>719394287Did you see the music performance at gamescon? People were flipping their shit. The announcer girl even teared up. People are treating e33 like its the new standard of gaming. Asmongoy, penguin manlet, and all the other streamer faggots are putting it in their top 5. And you think reddit is going to wowzer zowzer to 1st place?
>>719393359
this anon is correct>>719394786>>719394693>>719394761are acting as if the award show is entirely controlled by Geoff, which sounds likely at first till you remember that God of War won over RDR2
>>719394786The campaign tried to create a narrative of a small team going up against the big dog AAA competition.That narrative however I think is backfiring now that Silksong surprise dropped which is an actual small indie darling making it big.
>>719392724E33, not even a question.
>>719392965Shinobi is way better than Ragebound lol
>>719394856>are acting as if the award show is entirely controlled by GeoffNo I'm not. I didn't even mention him. Garbage reading comprehension. I outright stated Sony will be pushing for Death Stranding 2 to win which your retarded God of War counter actually supports. Dumb retard. Whenever you see a post talking about /v/ being full of idiots, try to remember they are talking about you.
>>719392971It will be the "Action game of the year" thanks to the title(and lack of competition) alone.
>>719395023Khazan was this year and pretty good in the combat side of things IMO.
>>719392724>DoomMassive disappointment for most people, and literally no one thinks it’s better than 2016 or Eternal. >SilksongMaybe, though I think it being another Tears of the Kingdom situation where people really like it but it’s not seen as being different enough from Hollow Knight might hurt it in the end. >Shinobi Cool game but lol, lmao even. NG4 has a better chance and that game also doesn’t have a chance in hell>Expedition 33I think it’s the most likely candidate.
I HATE DORITOPOPE I HATE DORITOPOPEYOU ENABLERS ARE WORSE THAN EVERY FOTM TRENDHOPPER AND CONSOLE-WARRIN' FANBOY COMBINEDHOW RETARDED MUST YOU BE TO INDULGE THE BIGGEST SHILLFEST SINCE E3 BUT WITHOUT EVEN THE PRETENSE OF BEING A TRADESHOWYOU DESERVE EVERY TIME THE BOARD BECOMES UNUSABLE DUE TO AN OVERHYPED RELEASE AND YOU DESERVE EVERY RETARDED JOURNO THAT IS APPARENTLY WORTH LISTENING TO IF GEOFF SAID OKAYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>>719392724what a pathetic lineup
>>719392724I totally forgot Doom The Dark Ages exists.Anyway, let's face it, it will be E33 and it's not even close. Kingdom Cum may win the best rpg since it's the most rpgest game of all the rpgs that came out this year and Jeff will do his hardest to suck off Kojima as much as possible, but Clair Obscur got it locked down
>>719394986My bad, in your case:E33 still wins, Sony would love to have DS2 sweep the awards until Larry Fink gives them a call. E33 is, to my knoweledge, a new IP ripe for proliferation (see KCDII)
>>719394986Also nta but Sony may be pushing GoY, alternatively
>>719392724Should be DK Bananza instead of E33
>>719394986Sony isn't pushing shit, nuGoW is simply too popular among soý chugging normies, if Sony was actually lobbying at GOTYA then Uncharted 4 wouldn't lose to fucking Overwatchbesides it's not even Playstation Studios game, if anything they'll be shilling Ghost of Yotei
>>719395560>Ghost of YoteiI completely forgot about this yet somehow it's going to take home all the gold
>>719395263>>719395560>Ghost of YoteiThis game right here. This is the game that will make everyone unhappy. So it will win.
>>719395807Oh they're sweeping with those shitstained controllers for sure. They even have a ridiculous CE. It's joever
>>719395936
>no mention of split fictionI know you are all friendless faggots but that game ticks every goty requirement
>>719394847It's a coin toss, anon. There's still too many unonown variables because Silksong hasn't even come out yet.
>>719395807>>719395898nah, it's basically Miles Morales to Jin's game, it will be nominated and might even win some cope award like Best Accessibility Options, but it won't win anything worth a damnthey are fucking retarded tho, GoT was the best asscreed formula game and gamers loved it, if they made actual sequel instead of this halfassed spinoff it would print money
>>719395560God of War is actually fun on a first playthrough but when you start to do the post game content or try out ng+, its problems become obvious. Also it was released in 2018 before movie game fatigue started to set in.
>>719392724Game guide cant be a game of the year, silly anon.
>>719395383>DK Bananza>Worst 3D platformer in yearsLol, lmao even. You'll be lucky to get best family game. Snoy might "snub" Ninpendo again by remastering Astrobot.
>>719396610I'm not saying it's a bad game but it wasn't even in top 10 that year and what they did to Kratos was unforgivable
nobody on earth gave a fuck about shinobi and doom was dogshit garbage for retards. the fact you put those two on the list means you are retarded. silksong will probably be close because it is a meme. nightreign will be in the running. expedition 33 will be the winner
>>719392724NG4
>>719392724Silksong will win GOTY, but Expedition will have to be given rewards in several other categories to make it balanced
Damn nigga that's a good joke
>>719392724All trash kek video games is dead
>>719392724Bananza is literally better than all those games
>>719397256Bananza ahaha let's laugh at this retarded tendi...
>>719392724I NEVER liked turn based rags. And the last few times I got a game I had a feeling I wouldn't like, because of a shit ton of hype, I ended up not liking it. (Gow ragnarok, bg3, blue prince) so I'm really holding of on e33 because I have a strong feeling it'll happen again but I really wanna fucking try it to be sure.
>>719392724Blue Prince
>>719392724Nightreign because fromsoftware fags will brigade the voting
>>719397685>VotingNigger that's not how it works or has ever worked. Are you 12?
There is not a single chance Expedition 33 doesn't win GOTY. Not the slightest.
>>719392724Shinobi isn't even remotely a contender. Are you fucking kidding?
>>719394847>Did you see the music performance at gamescon? People were flipping their shit. Uh no they weren't lol. Geoff tried to hype it up but the applause they got was lukewarm.
>>719398905The entire chat was dickriding the game, what are you talking about?
>>719399062>chatIt only takes 30 people spamming to take over the chat
>>719392724E33. Nobody played Doom.
>>719399361why can't aaa corporations do it?
>consoleshit adkill yourself
>>719393195A chinese woman literally wrote the story.
>>719392724the indie darling by the millionaire ex ubisoft dev of course
>>719399737>sure he made a great game but he did it with MONEH ewwwww???
E33 will win These will be the nominations.
>>719398905....dawg, are you tone deaf?
>>719399994Also, this points to the disparity between online discussions and the people who actually bought the games. A big portion of buyers are detached from almost any online discussions about video gamesthey just see the trailer or something and buy the game.
GOTY award is complete bullshit and doesn't matter one bit.
>>719400229Nightreign is going strong still damnIs it really worth buying
>>719399994replace silksong and metroid with mh wilds and nightreign
>>719392724Donkey Kong Bananza (not pictured)
>>719392724None! Disheartening that there is no major upcoming game with a black protagonist.2025 and people still don't know that black lives matters!
>>719401670How mind broken does somebody need to be to genuinely believe this?
>>719401507It really depends what you expect out of it.If you aren't turned away by the reused assets and whole concept of it being a team game (you can play in solo, but it's way easier while playing with randoms makes it even harder) then it's really fun.
Donkey Kong or Hollow Knight
>>719392724DK won.
>>719392724The game that should win won't because Nintendo doesn't buy off award show dorrito merchants and is content to let the quality of their product speak for itself.
>>719393289Not even Latinos or Asians are considered diverse enough anymore. I fucking guarantee you that if you make a game with a cast of just white Latinos and Asians, leftrooners will bitch and moan about how lacking a diverse cast it is. I mean, just look at the Warhammer TTRPG. The entire continent/region of the Reikland is filled with a massively diverse group of disparate people that resemble European identities from Steppe faggots, Romanian/Gypsy faggots, Slavic-likes, and Caucusfaggots. But in the TTRPG, they NEEDED to add a nigger for some reason that I don't understand why...It HAS to be ugly shitskin niggers WITH the darkest skin imaginable. that is the only diversity leftrooners see so it's more visually apparent so they can waft in their own hubris of how accepting they are.
>>719399994I think it'll be DK, MP4 might be a freaking December title and next year GTA 6 will win pretty much no contest. Wouldn't surprise me if indieslop wins again even after Astro
>>719401856cope
>>719393195I fell for E33 meme, tried it and literally in the first 5 minutes I saw a nigger. The game's woke as shit.
>Woke>Loved by women>Good Metacritic score>Good remake>Good family game>Is actually a good gameWhy wouldn't Story of Seasons win?
>>719392724E33 is by far the best game there, Hollow Knight fucking sucks and they've done nothing to convince me it won't be more of the same.
for me top 4 so far islook outsideexpedition 33blue princekcd 2none others stood out like these, which imo are all amazing greats. if i'd have to pick only one it would be look outside though.

>>719392724>>719399994Yeah, one of these disgusting Reddit games will win because they're popular.
>>719392724DS2 wins GOTY for Kojimas lifetime of work. E33 deserves it.Id bet $300.
>>719394129Kek and truth
>>719392724Silksong is going to win unless E33 pays their jeet attack force double to bot the votes.
>>719404874We don't even know if its good. It could be the path of pain x 10 with more flower side quests.
>>719393195Yes, but it's an extremely casual game for people who pretend to be hardcore gamers which is exactly the kind of shit journalists love.
SHAW
Path of Pain is objectively good. It's the only moment the game actually tests your platforming skills.
How many times during the aware ceremony will they talk about how E33 was a passion project by a small indie team of only 40 people and ignore all the outsourcing and funding it got?
>dark ages

>>719405638Its funny how you think this is some kind of gotcha
>>719405052I say it has an upper hand since it's only 20 dollars so even poorfags can play it on their toasters. That and it'll have more recency bias.
>>719404707>LE RedditKYS
It's either going to be E33 or Silksong.You know it, I know it, they know it.

>>719392724Expedition 33 or KCD2
>>719404253There's no way some budget rpgmaker indie with literally no dialogue or character development will win game of the year
>>719405794Is it only 20? Good for them.It will be interesting to see if the game awards reward ignore or punish that. Thats an interesting point.

>>719406719I'm sorry your favorite casual, subpar game isn't actually a grassroots indie sleeper hit and that pointing it out makes you angry.
>>719405638>noooo you can't call it indie it had like 50 part time korean animators and got funding from publisher that specifically funds small teams so it's LITERALLY on the same level as AAA with thousands of indians in credits and $400 million dollars budgetHow many narratives you subhuman jeets need to invent until anything sticks.

E33 is going to win because it perpetuates the vision of the industry as something "anyone can participate in" despite being a golden egg produced by people who have been in the industry for over a decade. DS2 is probably going to split on the narrative awards with it but it's absolutely going to shitstomp the music, rpg, and goty categories
