dorito pope is grieving and probably deep in depression right now
>>750303760>crying over a game company that produced a mid-tier game 15 years and 500 employim ago
>>750303760>one of his paypiggy devs went defunct and can't pay him for exposure anymoreI'd be upset too.
>>750303760he worked behind the scenes to save Kojima's ass, bet he'll try to get a licensing deal worked out between EA and whatever game company the head creatives fuck off to
>>750303760i completely forgot that happened. it's crazy that inquisition winning didn't immediately discredit tga.
>>750303760>We were always shillsWe know, Geoff
WELCOMETO UNEMPLOYMENT
>>750303760>industry shill uses studio closure to talk about his show>random idiot falls for it and thinks it's genuine grief>possibly the same idiot posting it here
>>750303760Is he also crying over Highguard? He should just quit game industry and move on to work as a Dorito mascot
>>750304261The only reason it didn't was that TGA had no credibility to begin with.
>>750304261It's not like it had much competition that year, wasn't fucking Hearthstone one of the nominees?
>>750303760should of just not made woke games
i understand the doritos portion but why did We(as in us 4channers) start calling him a Pope
>>750303760He's been gone since Highguard flopped.We're just watching him flop around like a beached fish at this point.
And DAI was the last game BioWare made that was worth playing.Ain't that a coinky-dink.
>>750303760>""first"" TGAs>objectively the shittiest year ever in AAA video gameshow fitting.Also, it's absolutely shameful how he hides his involvement in the Spike VGAs like this.
>>750303760I doubt he cares much, if at all. And rightfully so
>>750304261Was GTAV out on the PS4 by that point? I remember living with my ex girlfriend that year and inquisition bored the shit out of me. I just remember fucking a lot and she played a ton of gta online
>>750303760This is revisionism. Bioware was already dead by Inquisition. It was nothing but an upright zombie.
>>750309442This was back when I first started browsing /v/These empty soulless eyes mark the moment he sold his soul. Perhaps those eyes are without hope because he can see the future of the industry.
>>750303760oh they gave away the award to that wokeslop lmao what a joke
>>750306330Hearthstone was great for the first years, every IT office had it running
>>750303760Wait, Inquisition won the first ever game awards? That game is a giant stinking turd
>>750306330Every single time a VGA apologist propagates this meme.In 2014 there was Mario Kart 8, Bayonetta 2, Shadow of Mordor, Shovel Knight, The Talos Principle, and that's just the normalfags picks.Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze, Ar nosurge, Tales of Xillia 2, Freedom Planet also piledrive the mid ass game that was Inquisition. The VGA are just westoids cocksuckers who would get a aneurysm at the idea of looking in the direction of an indie game or a Japanese game for the GOTY.
>>750303760Geoff gave his full-throated endorsement to Highguard, which is a game that sounded bad in concept if you've ever played team PvP and looked like it was designed by committee.I think that Geoff is where he is because he's inoffensive, but he's obviously still game journo-tier in terms of understanding what this industry needs and shilling for western AAA.
>>750312301Yeah Shadow of Mordor deserved it more if only because Inquisition is completely forgotten about meanwhile people still suck the Nemesis System off.>Tales of Xillia 2Mein nigger.
>>750303760By putting him out of his miseryS
>>750309442I'm assuming the photoshop as the pope happen and it stuck.
>>750312301>Ar nosurgeI think if a Westoid journalist acknowledged that EXA_PICO existed, hell would freeze over.
>>750303760
>>750309804Early VGAs were a goddamn strange mix of based and utter cringe.Imagine being willing to let DOA win awards, but snubbing sean connery for jack black.
>>750312087It was a pretty weak year. It was up against Dark Souls 2 and Hearthstone. Bayo 2 should've won. It was a meme even at the time that Geoff looked incredulous when he opened the envelope.
>>750303760ok but those guys aren't dead, the IP is still there and devs change all the time. the game is there for him to play. I'm not crying yearly about troika being dead when I play vtmb what the hell who is he grieving? just go hit those guys up for a talk surely they'll eagerly feed him with dragon age slop content. or invite them for more shows.
>>750312087>>750304261They are clearly open to sponsorship opportunities for that award. Not every year, but every once in a while.
>>750303760Troons think they understand mourning while all they do is cause it
>>750314596They understand it all too well, actually, perhaps better than many. Wailing and shrieking for the dead was a common practice in many cultures.Much more to the immediate point here, in most of those cultures, it was insincere because most of the participents were being paid or otherwise compensated to do it, in order to make a bigger deal out of the funeral.
>>>/twatter/
Bioware spent a big chunk of money just paying off shills to shill for them. dragon age cisquisition had a tranny qunari, it was the exact same as veilguard.
>>750315643maybe you should go back to your tranime containment board?
>>750315750
>>750315893y-you got a lil smethngn on yuo lips tehre... want em tto whipes it of?
>>750303760how many of the people who worked on that game were still actively employed and worked on veilguard?
>>750303760How long until he invents one of those life achievement awards? Or legacy awards to dead studios?
