Thread 718971745

So, which of these will win GOTY?

Silksong because it's a game with heart and soul.
E33 has a fine story and gameplay but it's ripped assets let it down.

>>718971745 (OP)
Best soundtrack: E33
Best art direction: Skong

Spoiler: Neither takes actual goty

>>718971745 (OP)
Expedition 33

>>718971745 (OP)
This was a great white boy summer

e33 obviously
hk never got shit and sequels rarely do unless you're jewish

>>718971745 (OP)
Split fiction

>>718971745 (OP)
E33 doesn't even have competition.

>>718972345
Definitely. Nothing can beat it for goyslop of the year.

E33 and Silksong will both lose to Death Stranding 2

>>718972425
oh yeah a game nobody played and is just the first game but worse lol

>>718972454
You don't seem to realize how much Geoff sucks off Kojima
Expect disappointment when it happens

>>718971745 (OP)
>fake indie game with forced hype
>actual indie game with legit hype

>>718971745 (OP)
GOTY: E33
Best Indie: Silksong
Best Family Game: Either MKW or Bananza
Anyone who thinks otherwise besides these doesn't know how the Game Awards operates.

>>718971745 (OP)
If I was a betting man I'd put my money on the industry plant game and not the game that's deliberately not giving reviewers free copies, since the awards are largely determined by a cabal of industry heads with the popular vote not mattering much.

>>718972490
ds1 didn't win shit besides that pity award last time so ok

>>718971745 (OP)
People forget that the awards are chosen by an international panel of media critics and journalists and that companies need to run award campaigns to win them over. This is why Hades lost to TLOU2 despite all the Westerners dickriding the former.

>>718972521
Silksong devs arent giving free review copies to journos? Based, now I will buy your game.

>>718972643
see
>>718972679
E33 will not win at all

>>718972425
I hope so

>>718972707
same as last time, team cherry are based as fuck
>>718972741
dumbass e33 devs are full of nepobabies e33 is gonna win

Silksong will win troonslop of the century

>>718972802
I'm gonna screencap this for later when E33 doesn't even win the nomination and another industryslop game takes it.

>>718972904
ok do it retard see you in december while you choke on my cock

>>718971745 (OP)
e33 doesnt deserve the win but its a shit year for games and they will never ever give GOTY to a 2d game so yeah e33 while being shit and not worthy will probably pick it up, who fucking cares

>>718972490
Geoff can suck off Kojima as much as he wants but at the end of the day he's not on the voting committee.

Same reason Pekora lost the influencer award last year despite clearly being on the ballot to suck up to Kojima.

SEX WITH MY GIRLFRIEND (male), PHANTOM, WHILST HORNET WATCHES.

>>718972967
the simple fact is they will never ever give a 2D game goty

>>718971745 (OP)
Monkey Dong

>>718972963
You will be deephroating my dick when It happens
DS2 will forever be superior to E33 anyday of the week

>>718973118
Nintendo won't even be on the ballot except for the family friendly categories.

>>718973148
I doubt I will be "deephroating" anything "anyday" of the week saar

>>718972425
I kind of don't see DS2 winning. Not a lot of people are even talking about it much after release.

>>718972802
>e33 devs are full of nepobabies
I cant believe people are still at with this shit months later

All of you are tards.
Split fiction and KCD2 are 100% winning gay of the year, E33 winning is a white nationalist fantasy, a scorned previously ubislop employees make up a 100% white team and then just happen to make GOTY?
Never happening.

>>718973271
You will be sucking my cock when E33 doesn't win in December
>>718973326
It will win trust the plan
>>718973469
Not happening

>>718971745 (OP)
Silksong will be the better game. E33 will win game of the year. Why? VA difference. Nonsense bug noises will not win over the game journalist and gaming secondary crowd like dramatic VA performances. Nobody will even mention this specifically they will just say something vague like they liked the "story and characters" more in E33. Even if silksong does have better writing and characters the VA difference will be too strong.

That's just how humans are wired and how easily they are manipulated
Fuck, retards still think Blue Prince is a good game because it uses slow and somber music to make those retards feel like they are experiencing something profound. Even the slightest reflection or assessment reveals that Blue Prince is completely lacking in substance. It's entirely music trickery manipulating their emotions, same as the garbage film industry. The Blue Prince dev was a Hollywood cinematographer, who would have guessed? Because games contain a synthesis of every single domain of art it is important to understand that not every domain is evaluated equally when assessing the perceived quality of the whole. Real gamers keep the faith of gameplay supremacy, but the wider majority audience will rate presentation and music much higher than gameplay always.

>>718973423
suck my cock, jew

>>718973423
The truth? Yeah.

>>718973576
E33 has way better gameplay and soundtrack than hollow knight, hollow knight isn't even better than other subpar metroidvanias.
fuck off

I cannot fucking comprehend why would anyone take this shit seriously, There were two years where I could see someone making a case for the winner deserving it and managing to keep a straight face.

>>718973469
Nigga, Every single journo has been glazing E33 since it's release, you are delusional.

>>718973662
I loved E33. It is my goty so far. The gameplay lost all of its novelty within 3 hours. Even in act 2 I was deleting bosses before they could attack. I didn't mind, because the building aspect was fun.

Nightreign has consistently been way more fun to play. The difference is you play nightreign whereas you experience E33. It's basically a sony movie game done well.

There's good chance E33 wins and they say something like "We think SS should've won, our team was having a blast blah blah blah"

>>718973847
I wish the SS won

>>718973804
>Elden ring but mandatory co-op
>fun

>>718973681
2024 had no good games for AAA. In a just world nine sols wins with close competition being ufo 50, but china would never allow such a thing to happen.

Seriously 2024 was grim as hell. If KCD2, E33, Split fiction, or even DS2 released in 2024 they would have won no contest. Worst year for gaming since Dragon Age Inquisition won.

>>718973751
Journos have no power, it's the Neogaf and Resetera fags that hold it and they all hate E33

>>718971745 (OP)
I don't care who wins the scripted awards lol
My personal list has got AI Limit and Nightreign at the top. Nubby and 9 Kings were also great

>>718973927
You can play solo but it is way too easy that way so I don't. Except Tricephalos which is the first good solo boss.

>>718972643
First Death Standing didn't had great reviews.

>>718974014
based shit enjoyer

>>718973804
im the opposite. but maybe because im a long time souls veteran. E33 was a breath of fresh air and the souls formula is honestly extremely overdone.

Shouldn't Silksong be GOTY for like 2021?

>>718973974
You are retarded, reset era users aren't deciding GOTY, also they still hate KCD and warhorse.

>>718972741
I don't think E33 has the advantage there since the marketing is probably ran by Microsoft and they suck at winning awards. Sony and Annapurna are the ones who know how to win journalists over.

>>718973974
Resetera and brownoids love E33.

Sexpedition33 vs Silkshlong

>>718974060
I enjoy kino. Not every game needs a 100 hour story about heartbreak and being a father

Excremation 33 vs SilkGODS

One of these is the highest-rated game of this year, and the highest-rated user-reviewed game of all time, and the other isn't out yet.

>>718974081
I've been playing souls since DS1 at launch because I was too poor for a PS3 despite desperately wanting to play DeS as a kid and being jealous of everyone on forums hyping it up. Fromsoft games just keep getting better.

>>718974217
It's been delayed for 7 years in a row.

>>718974318
ur retarded

Imagine how much reviewbomb E33 spergs are going to do after Silksong receives critic acclaim. I already can see all frogs crying and sobbing like picrel.

>>718973576

>>718974113
This anon knows whats going on

Wait, I though the Geoff Awards didn't matter, then can we change our opinion now that Expedition is a frontrunner and call Metaphor a masterpiece as well?

People are just selective about what they call a nepobaby anyway. It's only applied to nepobabies who are also good at what they do/attractive, because it's the only criticism that can be levied against them.

Team Cherry looks autistic as fuck and somehow managed to delay a fucking 2d platformer for almost a decade. It's not like they grew up in the ghetto or something. Just normal lazy dweebs.

Holy FUCK is this the worst game of all time????

>>718974823
still e33 but this is a close second

monkey kong gunna win you retard

>>718972425
lol.

>>718974823
>Strong and independent woman protagonist
Like E33? Unfortunately yes.

>>718971745 (OP)
should be E33, but I could see Silksong winning just to spite E33

>aus vs fr
the answer is obvious

Cherrysloppers might be more delusional than Kojimadrones. There is NO way this shit will win anything, especially GOTY.

Is it not releasing a bit late to be a consideration?

Silksong and E33 will snag most awards
DS2 will win GOTY

>>718971745 (OP)
Silksong

>>718971745 (OP)
E33, its more friendly with journos, who give the awards.

Silksong just denied them a prime steak that is early reviews and guides.

>>718971745 (OP)
I feel like Silksong will make a splash in its own right, but between the harder difficulty, more stylized art, and more likely obfuscated nature of story/progression, Expedition 33 will be the front runner of more awards.

Doesn't hurt that it's the unexpected success of a new IP and new studio rather than a direct sequel to something.

>>718975109
it comes out at the beginning of september lil bro

>>718975124
dark souls 2 came out over a decade ago dude

What 2D platformer slop ever won GOTY?

>>718976174
ori 2 should've won

>>718976258
And that's the most cinematic, beautiful looking, normie friendly 2D platformer to ever exist. Bugfags need to get a reality check.

>orifags
LOL

>>718976258
This.

>>718976291
>>718976378
Im not sure what these guys means but I guess its some mix of a professional dev team doing a good job making art being compared to their low budget indie game it upsets them

man im trying to enjoy hollow knight but the map system is just so fuckin annoying and hardly rewarding(based on the 6 hours i played), stopped for a while to play the castlevania DS collection and had a way better time.

>bugfuckers deflecting instead of answering the question
2D platformer won GOTY when?

>>718976520
It's not a meme, the game is ass. You can get through a castlevania game in the same time you played hk and have fun from start to finish.

>>718971745 (OP)
>don't like redditvanias
>Exp33 was good but not 10/10
neither of them deserve it
but one of them is going to win it
because this year's releases have been terrible
hopefully exp33 means more JRPGs encouraged to be developed, though

>>718976258
Ori 2 shouldn't even have been made. It's a shit sequel to a shit game. Fuck, even Ender Lillies, which is the definition of a mid 7/10 metroidvania, mogs both Ori games.

people claiming an unreleased game stuck in development hell despite being made by 3 people being in a hypotethical goty discussion is slightly delusional

I wonder if these people own switch 2 or something retarded like that.

>>718976601
i just cant get the hype, feels like you can just put some souls mechanics and call it day, insta goty.

>>718977236
cool, have fun being a contrarian in the hopes of getting a gf. just don't play the sequel and let other people enjoy one of the best games of the past decade

>>718971745 (OP)
Box Mover 2 ( Death Stranding 2: On the Beach )

No, I'm not being ironic. It's the best game of the year.

>>718971745 (OP)
It's obvious that E33 is obliged to win according to the industry, regardless of anything else

Half of the main cast of E33 are CANONICALLY not even real people who deserve to be erased from existence.

>>718971745 (OP)
E33 will win.
The whole narrative that it was made by a small dev, is not a AAA release despite having realistic graphics, and the $50 price tag is too much. Doesn't matter that other games like Donkey Kong are better. They don't have a chance.
