>returns to top 10 global best selling list on Steam>returns to top 10 global best selling list on Playstation>returns to top 10 global best selling list on XboxSo awards don't matter, right?
To the individual they might not matter. To the masses, to the publisher, to the developers and to the industry they absolutely do.
>>729125471How the fuck is this an indie game?
>>729125341It's because of the OST. Normies heard how good it was thanks to E33 winning so much and realized there is a actually a pretty solid game behind that soundtrack.
>>729125493Made by 30 people.
>>729125493Simple, its a game published by Kepler Interactive made by a small team. And other games published by then prior to this were the likes of Sifu and pacific driveAnd no, a game to qualify as indie doesnt have to be made by a single digit number of people
>>729125341C33 won an MVP by batting .190/.327/.468 but with an OPS+ of 191. Crazy dead ball era
>>729125341>nooooooooooooo threres no way they got tons of interest after winning every award.The actual beliefs of cucks mates.
>>729125560This. I was sitting ready to order tickets to pic related in my browser 15 minutes before sales started. Ticket sales opened, site became slow, all tickets gone in 5 minutes. I'm still mad but don't underestimate just how much people liked this music.
>>729125341>90k bump>For a chinese astroturf costing $120MStill hasn't broke even lol
>>729125803>wowee 120 mil. pocket change lmao this is like literally the lint i spend to gamble on the rando team i know nothing about butt is playing a Thursday
What weirds me out is that it's still there. Like sure it's only 8th, but it's been 2 weeks since TGA and it's still on the top 10 global list:>https://steamdb.info/app/1903340/charts/Fuck.
>>729125803i don't know mate, i think they're goodthis was before tga too
>>729125957Why wouldn't it be? It's getting botted like all the other chinese astroturfs
>>729125803Who cares. He's a supposed nepo baby billionaire. He did it for fame and he won.
>>729125341womp womp looneytroon lost againhope he isn't taking it too hard :)
>>729125341My brother thanked me for my support of Israel and bought it for me as a christmas gift.
>>729126141>Who cares.Seething netease does. He's a billionaire and they still had to spend $120M on him to right his discount paper mario aislop. End result they lost money even with 5m sales. Embarrassing.
>returns to my image md5 filter
>>729126302So he ripped of some chinks. That makes him even more based, holy shit.
>>729125602With corpo money and contractors
>>729126141>>729126352He doesnt own Kepler wtf are you guys talking about. Kepler simply published the game, they didnt make it
Lmao new Indian cope? This game cost less than 10m to make and was in the green after a day.
>>729126494His daddy does, but he chose to scam a bunch of bug people instead and got away with it.
Very white.
>>729125341>astroturfing works on normieswater is wet
Are browns just going to remain mad forever at this game? Feels like some jeet got real mad when this game came out and hasn't stopped crying about it since. It's like the game comes with it's own meta-entertainement, watching this one guy spaz out.
>>729125341The quality of a game is independent from how many awards it receives, yes.
You guys realize that yelling into an empty void about how good the game is, in a thread that only you inhabit, makes the whole thing look like shilling (because it is). Game sucks, and I never would have heard about it if it hadn't bought some awards. The idea that this wasn't an indie game has already been entered into the public zeitgeist, no amount of shilling will change the fact that this game was funded by nepobaby money. Ain't indie if daddy pays.
>>729125493It isn't. The awards are fake and gay circlejerk.
>>729127468Ironic. Maybe a little project-y even.
>>729127263Individually? Yes. On scale? No. Public recognition determins quality on a mass scale.
>>729127468And you think people give a flying fuck of a game is indie or not? You think someone that is about to purchase a game goes "wait, is this indie?? Otherwise I shan't be buying"Nobody cares, if anything the indie label lowers its sales, because your average normie wants to spend his money on something that was made by an army of people
>>729125341Do you think they paid Geoff more than the astrobot guys
>729127468>topping every chart>"th-there's no one here guys!!"This is the sadest cope yet. Go back to the Keplercope. It was funnier when browns didn't understand how publishing worked.
>returns to formHOLY SHIT
>>729127632>because your average normiedoesn't give a shit one way or the other, they just want a good game.
>>729126141>>729126352>>729126679Nigger get in your meds. Youre literally making up fanficition
>729128093This won't feed your family browny.
>>729127739I don't think Geoff really had a choice. When the actual player's choice awards, the ones that are voted on by people, not journos, all show E33 as a dominant winner you kinda can't ignore it.
>>729127632Goalpost is on wheels huh? We're talking about the awards, jeet. Learn to read.
>>729128093I thought this thread was about making up random shit about who paid for the game.
>>729128394I thought that chinese gacha slop won the popular vote
>>729128692Yeah because they gave away in-game currency if you voted for it. Real awards don't nominate gachagames because they just buy their addicts off with anime whores.
>>729125341No wonder it's selling. It's a good, GOOD, game made in 2025. That's like finding a unicorn.
>>729125341>awardsyou mean marketingand yes, marketing matters
>>729125493Indie just means its not corpo jew dogshit for the modern audience in 2025
>>729129325Awards are marketing you get for free if your game's good enough.
>>729128517It is better to not give the schizophrenics attention Anon. It reinforces their delusions.
>>729128959Real awards paid the organizers I guess
>>729129681yeah or maybe it was the alien illuminati reptillians?in my head it was the mayans all along
>>729125887Nice larp neet, you should trundle upstairs to tell your mom you appreciate that she still houses and feeds your useless fat ass
>E33 already has 47 GOTY awardshttps://goty.gamefa.com/year/2025/
Perhaps you should listen to your doctor.
>>729130102Certainly legitimate, most assuredly legitimate. Stop noticing.
>729129962HRT messing with your brain again anon?
>>729130102>95.9%
>>729130102STOP THE COUNT!
