Is it really true that Expedition 33 is 4x more likely to win GOTY than every other game releasing this year combined?
Funny that they think Metroid will release in time for the Game Awards.
>>719856268at almost 0%, maybe they don't
>>719856209If Silksong actually wins GOTY, don't goto school tomorrow.
>>719856209Totally real votes I'm sure
>>719856403seems real https://manifold.markets/Tripping/which-game-will-win-game-of-the-yea-PhRInSIuhu
yes as you can see all the other games are shit compared to it too, gaming is in a sad state.
>>719856209yes. industry votes matter more than whatever indieslop trannies are currenlty writing fanfiction about.
Reminder that Geoff Keighley gave GotY to Madden 2004 in the same year that saw the release of GTA Vice City, Wind Waker, Splinter Cell, and Star Wars: KotOR.
>>719856486nigga, the game awards just started existing 3 years ago!
all the other games combined can do nothing against it either, it didn't even struggle, it arrived and it was king. They are eclipsed by the sun that is known as Expedition 33.
>>719856486sounds like a real game won out over shitty sequels and some bioware dogshit
>>719856486the Game Awards gave the first ever GOTY to one of the shitty Dragon Age sequels. As in not Origins, one of the pieces of garbage that came after itThey've never had a clue
How are you indians still shilling that coomer waifuslop
>>719856581are there a lot of indian companies on the GOTY panel?
>>719856209Yes and it won't have anything to do with which game is actually better.So first off TGA is a popularity contest, but specifically what's popular with the jury as the player votes are irrelevant, you had all of China vote for wukong and it got nothing.E33 has so much going for it because it pleases the Jurys tastes>is an RPGThe Jury has shown they consider RPGs more prestigious, probably because it has more story >it's a JRPG but none of that icky japanese stuff They like JRPGs and also hate Japan outside of Nintendo and Persona and even then they hate any japanese quirks>It has a bogus narrative Many of them have fallen for this game's bullshit rags to riches story >It looks good Again they have a biased towards pretty realistic looking 3DSilksong might buck this trend but it really depends if it gets better reviews than E33 and if they'd allow a 2D indie beat ""real cinema""
>>719856209maybe other devs should consider releasing good games then
>>719856831what a completely unbiased take.
>>719856831You forgot to mention all their wallets getting fatter with payoffs
>>719856209i haven't played this game and all the footage i've seen of it is cutscenes so its shit
>>719856969Well the jury isn't biased, this is just my own observation after following this for years, the jury has clear preferences and like the only time this was thrown out the window was when it takes two somehow won>>719856980lmao they're not getting paid for this
>>719856831silksong looks like it's a big deal rn, seems like a real chance
>>719856969>>719857176is biased* fuck its too early>>719857179It is a huge deal and it's 100% getting a nomination, but E33 still has the edge, it really comes down to if silksongs metacritic score is higher or not
>>719856486and he was right. madden 04 was great.
>>719856831*farts in your face*DS2 is winning GOTY. there's no discussion to be had on this.
>>719857176>lmao they're not getting paid for thisAnon..
jesus fucking christ, the number of good games released in 2025 is depressing
E33 is more of a movie game than death stranding 2
>flavour of the week Twitchcore game winning GotySlow year, huh?
>>719856209idk, my personal GOTY is Jump King Quest
>>719856209It literally has no competition.
>>719857503did your boyfriend tell you that?
>>719858061No yours did
VTMB2 will literally sweep the floor once it comes out
>>719857175heres gameplay of the most kino boss fight https://youtu.be/NCIk3NSQauE?si=KN6oRBvWnmEzn2CR
>>719856209they wont rig it for hollow knight like they did astrobot because they dodnt give them review copies
>>719856209A2DPlatfomerHasNeverWonGOTYAndWillNeverWinGOTY
>>719856209yes because indies don't win goty and it pissed off journos
>>719856209Having played every game on this list save the ones yet released or anything by Nintendo, E33 is absolutely still GOTY. Silksong is fun so far but it wasn't the huge unexpected surprise of a game that E33 was. KCD2 and DS2 (and Yotei peobably) were just firmly okay. So far Silksong is okay. E33 was amazing. >NintendoExclusively produce snooze inducing mediocrity. I don't need to touch their games to know it's the same lame shit it's always been.
>>719856209team cherry didn't send any review code to the journos so they're probavly going to give it to the baguette game
>>719856209I feel like an new IP is more deserving than an iterative sequel that's more or less more of the same. Much of the credit goes to it's predecessor. Regardless of how good a sequel it is.
>>719856209Expedition 33 is a innovative genre-redefining masterpiece that blends Japanese with Western RPGs into something greater. Silksong is a rehash DLC for a 8 year old game with a dated woke narrative and dated gameplay.
i think silksong is gonna lose because it went against the narrative / collusion of increasing base prices
>>719856209Considering they had this in their page until people realized it's bullshit, it's bullshit anyways.
>>719856831When a person "hates Japanese games except for Persona" which is like the most Japanese shit ever, do you think maybe your strawman is incorrect, and they just hate bad games actually?
It was never any competition. E33 is the highest user-rated game of all time and is groundbreaking when it comes to game narratives, presentation, and JRPG style combat. Silksong is fun but not in the same league.
>>719857503neither of those are movie games.
>>719859968Silksong isn't fun, the game is designed to annoy the player
>>719860060based. hope you got filtered.
slow year. for me, its gonna be oblivion remake or the ps5 release of stalker 2
>>719859968Bot
>>719859968>E33 is the highest user-rated game of all time and is groundbreaking when it comes to game narratives, presentation, and JRPG style combatnique ta mere putain
>>719856969what a completely unbiased response
>Indians have unleashed the shillbots
>>719859548you don't think silksong will have any shooters amongst the journos?
>>7198562092 yuan have been deposited in your account.
>>719856209>KCD2 being in third placeGuess woke did broke it
>>719856403it's not votes, it's a prediction market
>>719856209as always, who give him more shekels will receive goty, awards are for sale since always
>>719856209whoever pays for the advertisement wins the advertisement award
>>719856209it's almost certainly going to be silksong, I'm not even playing it but it's obvious all things considered
>>719856209I believe it, Silksong is simply too hard for journos.
>Silksong will win because it’s…eh…it has…most players, yes, most players = goodest game ever, just like Wukong
>>719856209That much was obvious from day 1.
>>719858394Some older publications, that predate Geoff's show, have given out a few GOTY awards to 2D platformers before: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Game_of_the_Year_awards
>>719856209Why should I care about what game a random gay media outlet decides was the best of the year?
>months of seething over E33... for some reason...>years of seething ahead of us after it wins GOTYLiterally what is wrong with these "people".
>>719856209yeah if it doesn't you know never to watch that award show again
Expedition 33 is a game changer desu
>>719863582isn't it just paper mario combat with persona stylisation and ff13 corridors? what was its innovation
>4 niggas in a row>2d platformer>3d platformerits joever...
>>719863627its better than all those other shitheaps its not among the mantle of greats but its a good game
>>719856486early to mid 2000s sports and racing games were awesome cause it was the only videogame your non-nerdy dad was truely interested in playing with you
E33 is the only game released this year that feels like it should win GOTY, it's got the Hollywood cinematic vibe and the gameplay is rather okay although a tad bullshit at times.
>>719864616isn't hollywood cinematic vibe bad though?
>>719857475There's plenty of great gamesThey're just nominated for the normie awards
>>719866296they're just *not* nominated you mean?
>>719863681what would you prefer?
>>719857175Mental retard. Just be honest and admit that you simply can't afford the game or anything to play it on.
>>719867894how many people on this board are actually that poor? they could always just pirate anything they wanted anyway, even if they were
>>719856209>ITT: debtcattle who still don't understand that awards are paid-for advertismentGenuinely grim.
>>719868686how much are the journos paid
>>719856209E33 is such boring game
Why only gamers care so much about these awards?Even /tv/ don't care about oscar slop this much
>>719856209Prolly.But it's only happening because the bar was set reeeallyy low this year.
>>719856209>Blue PrinceHow is this even a consideration? It feels so astro-turfed
>>719869275Really? Considering which games won other years the bar is actually very often pretty low, surely.Dragon Age, Last of Us, God of War, It Takes Two... There have been a lot of absolute stinkers that have won GOTY, games that arguably aren't even good in the first place
>>719869386is 1.1% a consideration? seems pretty irrelevant
>>719856209There is no way Silksong loses to the UE5 asset flip. Even walking and jumping come from the UE5 store. It's as soulless as it can go.
>>719869239I've also noticed this and it's one of a few reasons why I feel like gaming discussion is years behind that of other media in that its audience hasn't learned not to give a shit about award shows yet (or rather, they rightfully used to not give a shit and we've now gone backwards to the point where they do)
>>719869576That's still too much. I don't know what came out this year that should be 1%, but it's not Blue Prince
>>719856209GOTY awards are like the oscars. Instead of the best movie they some faggot movie
You'd have to be a third world retard to not see E33 is easily winning it. There is no other game with the same aura this year.
>>719856486>TLoU2 over Animal Crossing, Among Us, Fall Guys and Ghost of Sushima>Astroflop over anything elseAlways been a laughable farse. I blame reggie for putting the fucking smash joker trailer in the show, giving it credibility and "hype".
>>719869902>with the same aurakys zoomer
>>719869963I'm 34, nigger.
>>719856209>Death Stranding 2 not winning GOTYokay retards
>>719856831You forgot to the arguably really good OST that is put in places to make people feel the vibe instead of having any actual writing of substance.It's like the whole game is a big trailer for a marvel movie where you feel all the hype but don't even know why.
>>719863681>>4 niggas in a rowThat is too much depth for journalists and modern gaymers. It's just 3, which is the objectively inferior and low in strategic value format.
>>719856268This. Metroid Prime 4 will win next year's GOTY no problem.
The amount of people sucking this game off is ridiculous. It can't be that good. Not even Elden Ring or Baldur's Gay 3 got this treatment.
>>719870456The rightwingers latched on to it and added to the paid journo hype and the ps braindeads. It's incredible how much sugar you can blow up a games arse with those forces combined, and how much you can shit on other good games when all those people align to hate on it.
>>719857249SilkSong has almost 0 chance because it’s pure astroturf. It has a small chance of winning purely because it’s $20 ans apparently it’s a bold anti-corporate underdog move to price your games fairly. Nobody would care about SilkSong if it were $50 because loud poors wouldn’t be playing it
>>719871273why the fuck does anyone give a fuck about pricing anyway? if someone is actually really poor they can just pirate everything, I don't understand why everyone gives a shit about prices of anything
E33 really feels like it mass appeals to stupid normie people
>>719856209Absolutely not. Hollow Knight already holds the crown of the most overrated game of the 21st century so far, Silksong will take up that mantle
>>719871408That’s silksong
>>719856209how can people even vote silksong when they haven't even left the honeymoon period or finished it
>>719870456> Not even Elden Ring or Baldur's Gay 3 got this treatment.BG3 is considered easily Game of the Decade
>>719856209Death Stranding 2 not up there? I haven't played it cause I don't have a console but if it's even nearly as good as DS1 then it ought to be in contention.
>>719856209Tendiesheepxisters.....This was supposed to be our year.....
>>719869239Because we are retarded subhumans, when we cant argue about console war shit we argue which game is the best. Theres even gacha wars where its hoyoshills vs all the others or hoyosubhuman infighting with zzz vs genshin etc. We are just that retarded. Also good example is the Monster Hunter community on 4chan.
Gamer vote will be divided between E33, Siksong and others, while normalfag vote will be 100% E33.>but normalfags don't play gamescorrect, but twitter tourists love voting on whatever poll ends up being linked in their social media.
>>719870353With possibly a new 3D mario AND GTAVI? Eh...
>>719871754Gamers understand that Silksong is basic bitch metroidvania and only Redditors think it’s Goty worthy when E33 is contender. Last year? Probably could win Goty
>>719871754>while normalfag vote will be 100% E33wtf are you talking about?Silksong is way more popular with normalfags
>>719856209>Is it really true that Expedition 33 is 4x more likely to win GOTY than every other game releasing this year combined?As the end of the year approaches, it does seem more and more likely. E33 is overhyped as hell, but it IS a competent new game, not a sequel, not a reboot or remake or any shit like that. And this has been a VERY bad year for games.
>>719871610they're predicting that it'll win, not voting for what they think should win. it's a betting market
>>719871903normies don't like gameplay, they like cinematic stuff like E33
>>719872132>silksong>gameplay Kek
>>719872284it's not a cutscene game. normies fucking love cutscenes so much
>>719872367No, normies like what other normies tell them to like
>>719856831>anon explains why the jury votes a certain way and their biases>other anons somehow get mad at him because they think that's what he would vote like>they literally can't understand that this post is explaining the internal thought process of other people 4chan users are getting dumber and dumber, at this point 90% would fail the breakfast question. Basic
>>719856831>They like JRPGs and also hate Japan outside of Nintendo and Persona and even then they hate any japanese quirksthis is the dumbest shit I've read in a while
>>719872467you just dislike whatever normies like, you're just as dependant on what the normoes think, you merely inverse it.
>>719872565Guess that’s why I dislike your posts
>>719856209Uncle Timmy is promoting the game at TGAs because it's running on his engine, and is an example how easily a small team of idea guys with no programming knowledge can put together a game on unreal engine 5.
>>719856268Metroid prime looked like a damn gamecube game. I was so hyped after waiting forever for it, but instead of a new entry it looked like devs used the 20 year old engine they had earlier. I'm sorry but I instantly lost interest after I used to be tuning into new for updates.
>>719866969Yemy bad
>>719856209This is a platforming board. rpgsissies btfo
>>719872565Yep, contrarians are indeed brainless cattloids
>>719856209Everything about this game's performance was artificially inflated, so yeah it could win TGA too. It's like an athlete taking EPO, they're cheating but if no one's going to do anything about it you might as well bet on them.
>>719875461>
>>719856209what should each game be trading at anyway? is 80% accurate?
are there really no other games coming out this year?
>>719856524It was called the Spike TV Game Awards since like 2000. They dropped that part recently because nobody watches cable anymore.
>>719859645iterative sequels are a really good thing to be though. Dragon Age Inquisition won even though it was complete dogshit because Origins was so good and they wanted to retroactively celebrate it.
>>719857179does silksong innovate on hollow knight in anyway whatsoever? it just seems like more of the same to me (although i havent looked much into it). hollow knight was already a fairly generic metroidvania, so I don't see how it could win over e33.
>>719880204depends what you count I guess, it's got a main character that talks and way deeper and more expressive schmoovement. But for the most part it's just way bigger and with way more tools to tackle everything, a culmination of lots of little things rather than adding any one big new thing
>>719872515he could only come up with that explanation if he thinks that way himself
>>719857989Elaborate
>>719856831Most Japanese games are bad that's why they don't win. The good ones like Elden Ring and Sekiro won GOTY.
>>719856209There's a 0% chance that DK Bananza doesn't win GOTY. It blows Expedition out of the water it isn't even close. Expedition was only popular among ecelebs who farmed views by filming themselves crying.
>>719880761japan has really taken over game awards latelylast year was japan-japan-japan-japan-canada-chinayear before was japan-japan-japan-finland-belgium-usayear before that was japan-japan-france-france-usa-netherlandsjust steadily taking over the entire industry, more and more of the nominations every year
>>719880980this year it's japan-japan-japan-japan-australia-france I guessunless KC2 gets a nom
if this shit keeps rising like this maybe silksong really will win it
>>719872132you know the most popular game of all time is Minecraft right, followed by FIFA, LoL, CoD and GTA onlineThe truth is gameplay is the only thing that matters
>>719881348aren't cod and gta cutscene games? where you just watch a bunch of cutscenes and go through cinematic setpiecesthe success of things like tetris and minecraft show gameplay can matter at the limit though, it's true
>>719856831if all that is true, why did Metaphor lose to Astrobot last year?>Persona JRPG>bogus narrative>looks goodarguably it could look better, but Persona has style still
>>719856209Donkey Kong has higher rating than everything here. This bias needs to stop trying to gate keep it out of the conversation.
PC doesn't control the conversion for Goty or best games. Next year is a perfect example. PC only cucks won't be playing Duskbloods and GTAVI.
>>719856209https://vidyagaemawards.com/previous-yearsI dunno, the last JRPG to win Least Worst Game was Nier: Automata and even then it wasn't a pure JRPG.
