Wow, with weighting like that and the precedent set of how lame and gay mainstream games media is, who could ever doubt the legitimacy of The Game Awards (TM Pending) by Geoff Knobgobbler?

He'd have an easier time trademarking "The Outdated Games Media's Desperate Attempt at Feigning Relevancy Advertising and Propaganda Hour."

This game is fucked already.

It was fucked before it even started since Cuckmann took over Naughty Dog.

Also, what the hell is that retarded looking bald thing? I seriously thought it was the insane bitch from the live action Wicked movie, which is a testament to what real life NPCs they are.

The elden ring game was very surprising. Even more surprising is it has old assets. There's nameless king and some others, though he stood out the most.

So, I loled when they brought in "that guy" who wants to help people laid off, because of the first three examples in his video, two were bluehairs, and I was "well, duh, of course you're the first being laid off".

Then it turns out it's even better:



The guy works for Tencent in "IP acquisition". Aka, the people who buy out your studio, fire 50% of the staff, and then bring it to profitability maybe.

I wonder what AAA studio payed Deloitte, PWC, or KPMG to tell them that gamers would buy more games if they had recognizable TV/Movie actors in them. What a fucking shit decision that costs tons of money and barely moves the needle positively for gamers to begin with.

I play games as a break from real life, I don't need the fucking prostitutes from Hollywood following me there, as well.

Yeah, PEGI ratings have been shit since the very day it was founded, just like ESRB.

Only reason they had those ratings systems is because boomer lawmakers thought the only people who played console/PC games were children, so the industry voluntarily created that rating system to avoid those same lawmakers creating regulation that probably would have been poorly worded bullshit

I've been following this game for about 6 months and I have really high hopes for it. It'll be great if we get an actual spiritual successor to ME.

Releasing that after Naughty Dog's Intergalactic trailer is a great fuck you to them lol. I'm getting Mass Effect, Halo and some Destiny vibes from it. Looks great.
