When Starfield wins most innovative, that's when you can disregard the rest.
Sifu, TLOU and RDR2 aren’t even from 2023 as well…
What a load of shite.
TLOU Part 1 was a 2023 release, even though it's just a remake but at least I can let that slide. Even SIFU was a 2023 Steam release so I can let that slide. RDR2 is in a category that specifically built for games before 2023. What I can't let slide is giving it the labor of love award. It hasn't been touched since launch and the online component is a gong-show because of it's bugs and cheaters. Even the singleplayer mode had a huge audio bug that affected many people (including myself) and the only work around was getting some guys script that you have to run before launching the game.
It's completely abandoned by Rockstar and does not deserve to come anywhere close to the "Labor of Love" award.
Fair enough about RDR2 being in the right category, even though that’s still wrong 😆
I’m less willing to let TLOU and SIFU slide though, it’s “technically” correct but in reality it’s just stupid for these games to be in 2023 awards.
Remakes in particular boil my piss. They’re lazy, “play it safe” games instead of companies taking risks making new games, so I don’t think they should be eligible for awards imo.
The TLOU and SIFU remakes shouldn't get as much scrutiny as you're giving them, before the remakes released they were console exclusive, the reason these types of remakes are bad is because some of them are lazy and unplayable at launch (like the TLOU remake). But you're right, they shouldn't have been in the steam awards even if they technically did release on steam in 2023.
What audio problem? because I had issues with my surround sound in which the channels where jumping all over the place. Support wasn't much help and if that was the same problem then I wish I had found that sooner
This is why children don’t get to vote when it really matters.
It's the reason why I don't ever pay attention to gamers' choice awards etc. For all the shit that critics get, usually I agree with their consensus
I voted for without a doubt, which i though was gonna win the most innovative
Some viewpoints would prefer it if you wrote off bg3 that way.
Some viewpoints are actually wrong that way.
