[hollow dove]

Interesting

[wild shale]

[inland grotto]

[wild shale]

we didnt know techincally if it was a new game or not

[inland grotto]

[wild shale]

[earnest hill]

[wild shale]

[earnest hill]

[wild shale]

[wild shale]

HUH

[inland grotto]

I will not be going to tiktok

[earnest hill]

I guess Twitch is like 10 seconds ahead of youtube

[inland grotto]

not for me, but ok

[wild shale]

16 seconds i counted

[normal eagle]

death stranding knock off

[inland grotto]

feels that way, doesn't it?

[wild shale]

its wild how far ahead it is

i am curious about this, but i need more

[normal eagle]

its got that weird sci fi feel to it like DS does lmao

[wild shale]

oh nice

[inland grotto]

april huh

[wild shale]

well, a demo is nice

[inland grotto]

I don't have a horse in this race :p

[wild shale]

sonic rumble lets not gooo

i think they like the horses

[inland grotto]

...I just realized I made a pun by saying horse

[normal eagle]

i got that one

[wild shale]

fun fact, only 1 of these games actually came out this year

[hollow dove]

L skibidi

Okay W

[wild shale]

the rest all came out in other languages at least last year

[normal eagle]

i thought you did that intentionally 😭

[wild shale]

yeah same

[normal eagle]

the way she says it annoys me

[inland grotto]

she shall not play it

[wild shale]

i have no idea

[inland grotto]

no idea what this is

[hollow dove]

Same

[inland grotto]

...dragon age?

[wild shale]

oh hi ben starr

[hollow dove]

Hmmm, where’s yeeted then

[inland grotto]

oh solasta ok

[normal eagle]

oh cool solasta

[wild shale]

same publisher lol

[normal eagle]

what a tone shift

[inland grotto]

alpha channel?! alpha mentioned?!

[wild shale]

[earnest hill]

Metal Gear?!!

[normal eagle]

we went from D&D fantasy to tanks

[inland grotto]

whoa easy with the seizure blinking there, my guy

[wild shale]

me when i rat the tank

[inland grotto]

silksong

[wild shale]

HUH

what why is this here?!?!

this should be on the stage

[inland grotto]

it should

[wild shale]

i mean its gonna be e33

[inland grotto]

meh

[wild shale]

its kinda hard for them to win goty and not this one

[normal eagle]

rip to blue prince in that catagory

[hollow dove]

Interesting

[inland grotto]

lol he dressed up as belle epoque french

[earnest hill]

cold take: if something is nominated for best game it shouldn't be also in best independent game

[inland grotto]

fair

[wild shale]

i think after e33 sweeps everything they might make changes next year

[earnest hill]

I hope E33 sweeps. That game was incredible

[wild shale]

easily my goty

game of the decade tbh...

[hollow dove]

Well errr, doesn’t that mean DK bananza shouldn’t have won best family game?

[inland grotto]

as someone who hasnt played it, I think it desrves nothing. it's just fair

[normal eagle]

badgerborne!?! the sequel to bloodborne we've all been hoping for!

[wild shale]

🤔 interesting

lmao

[hollow dove]

Okay this game definitely reminds me of Mario + rabbids

Even the music

[normal eagle]

oh this took a weird turn

[wild shale]

👀

interesting

[inland grotto]

ew ai mentioned

[wild shale]

OH

i thought it might be

[hollow dove]

So cringe

[earnest hill]

I have no idea who that actor is

[wild shale]

quicksilver in the fox xmen

[inland grotto]

this looks like no more heroes + lolipop chainsaw + persona somehow

[wild shale]

yeah

[normal eagle]

i was gonna say

it really gives off lollipop chainsaw vibes

[earnest hill]

[hollow dove]

What is this lol

[wild shale]

my question as well

[normal eagle]

this is the most early 2000s rock music ever

[inland grotto]

I am definitely too old for this one

[earnest hill]

A big mistake these companies all make is trailers that are way too long for what they are

[wild shale]

okay interesting style mix

[normal eagle]

boomer 🫵

[tall forge]

5 minutes for some generic anime game or space

[inland grotto]

A big mistake these companies all make is trailers

fixed

[earnest hill]

like 1 minute max. that is the attention span people have

[tall forge]

Still trying to sleep

[normal eagle]

dang, guess im the problem cuz that was kind of cringy

[earnest hill]

https://tenor.com/view/enemy-friend-the-simpsons-flanders-pillow-gif-6100488

[hushed aurora]

Guess I'm the problem

[wild shale]

oh this one

[earnest hill]

https://tenor.com/view/enemy-friend-the-simpsons-flanders-pillow-gif-6100488

[hushed aurora]

The fact Sonic 3 wasnt on this is diabolical

[wild shale]

oh boy im shocked

[hushed aurora]

Wait wut

[hollow dove]

Don’t be Minecraft movie

[wild shale]

oh hi gabriel luna

[normal eagle]

thank god minecraft movie didnt win

[hushed aurora]

Minecraft didnt win? Shook

[normal eagle]

thank the lord it didnt

[hollow dove]

Thank goodness. We don’t like chicken jockey

[tropic vector]

fork found in kitchen

[wild shale]

lmao

that was a good joke

[hushed aurora]

Still tho, pressed Sonic 3 wasnt here

[hollow dove]

Same

[wild shale]

sonic 3 or twisted metal wouldve easily won

[hushed aurora]

Yup

🙄

[normal eagle]

sonic 3 not being there is so screwed up

yet the soulless cash grab movie was 🤮

[wild shale]

sonic 3 makes more sense cause they forgot, but twisted metal season 2 was announced at the game awards, and was in 2025

like bro??

[hushed aurora]

Tsk tsk

[wild shale]

lmao

okay so clair obscur music

[normal eagle]

so far im 2/6 on correct predictions

[wild shale]

god this music is so good

actually not the biggest fan of this song, but the rest are amazing

[earnest hill]

Une vie à t'aimer!!!!

[normal eagle]

might have to watch otzdarva play expedition 33

[wild shale]

oh wait its that

yeah no this one is great

[normal eagle]

[wild shale]

[normal eagle]

smh mods breaking the only english rule :P

[wild shale]

its the name of the song

[hollow dove]

https://tenor.com/view/luigi-mario-mario-and-luigi-brothership-mario-and-luigi-nintendo-gif-8793899126811505581

[normal eagle]

wait is it

[hollow dove]

This song is pretty good

[wild shale]

yes and its 11 minutes long

[normal eagle]

i didnt know

[wild shale]

but we are skipping around

[earnest hill]

I don't like this guy singer as much as the original

[wild shale]

most of the songs in the soundtrack are french, aside from character names

[inland grotto]

why are we screaming?

[wild shale]

still sounded good

[earnest hill]

fun fact: most of these are also explaining the story of the game

[normal eagle]

[wild shale]

hi ben!

oh is this the hype trailer lol

man, they easily couldve nominated 6 plus people for best performance for clair obscur

[normal eagle]

imma be honest, this years GOTY nominees are all really good

like i legit cant get mad at who wins

[wild shale]

the whole cast is amazing

[inland grotto]

imagine if they included "GARAMA" in this compilation

[normal eagle]

the biggest game reveal im waiting for, is the new fantasy total war game

[earnest hill]

claire obscure is my favorite game since FF7 came out in '97

[normal eagle]

hoping its total war: warhammer 40k

[inland grotto]

GEOFF

[normal eagle]

[inland grotto]

https://tenor.com/view/avatar-the-last-airbender-faint-gif-11528558

[wild shale]

yeah, honestly idk what tops it for me

[hollow dove]

Epic opening

[wild shale]

lmao theyre all wearing that outfit

thats an unlockable outfit in the game btw

[normal eagle]

see ive never played a FF game, would i like expedition 33?

[wild shale]

probably yes

its turn based but with reaction timing, like paper mario gameplay wise

[earnest hill]

E33 is interactive turn based combat, epic story, voice acting and music.

[normal eagle]

the only RPGs ive played are pokemon, baldurs gate 3 and darkest dungeon

[wild shale]

yeah the music, story, everything is great

[inland grotto]

that's harsh

losing the house and his dad in the same year

[wild shale]

yeah thats enough, its pretty beginner friendly tbh

[earnest hill]

if you only play it turned based you will die. you need to parry attacks and can get bonus points if you time attacks. Very similar to Super Mario RPG

[wild shale]

yeah that does suck

[hollow dove]

I agree

[wild shale]

jeffrey!

ayy i didnt know it was his son

[normal eagle]

dispatch is a game im gonna try and get for the holidays

[inland grotto]

why are they making the guests walk out of the golden intestines

[wild shale]

good choice

[earnest hill]

what award is this?

[wild shale]

uhhh i forgot

[hollow dove]

Same

[earnest hill]

gotta be a voice acting one, right?

[wild shale]

probably

[inland grotto]

TLoU2 mentioned! @normal eagle 's favorite game

[earnest hill]

hot take: TLOU2 wasn't that bad

[wild shale]

oh yeah for sure

[inland grotto]

I haven't played it I was just poking fun

[wild shale]

action

[normal eagle]

[tropic vector]

[wild shale]

[normal eagle]

for me it might not be the worst of all time, but it was definitely one of the least enjoyable CRPG's ive ever played

[inland grotto]

wait

that's astarion's voice

[wild shale]

okay so which clair actor will it be

[tropic vector]

charlie because gaming desperately wants to suck up to other forms of media

[wild shale]

honestly any of them could win

like all 6

yep that was my pick

[normal eagle]

so real

they had 3 nominees

[wild shale]

it was her or ben for me

charlie was great, but not on their level at all

[inland grotto]

wait, that's Shadowheart from Baldur's Gate 3

[normal eagle]

mr fruity elf vampire

[inland grotto]

the winner

[wild shale]

yeah

[normal eagle]

oh yea i can definitely hear shadowheart

[wild shale]

girlfriend!

[inland grotto]

melon helmet-shaped hair

https://tenor.com/view/shadowheart-baldurs-gate3-bg3-gif-19588257

[inland grotto]

very bold to have a game abbreviated as ZZZ

[tropic vector]

😴

[normal eagle]

[earnest hill]

[inland grotto]

[tropic vector]

[normal eagle]

please be rivals and not fortnite

[wild shale]

what a random award

i mean fortnite has added alot of content

[hushed aurora]

Nah this is crazy timing

[wild shale]

but rivals deserves something, theyve added so much in a year

[tropic vector]

ive been meaning to try sf6

[normal eagle]

they actually gave overwatch competition

[tropic vector]

this is one of the craziest arcs in gaming lol

[tropic vector]

oh wow

[normal eagle]

but fortnite didnt win so get owned epic

[inland grotto]

it was overpromised and underdelivered and now people love it

[wild shale]

the fact that rivals has caught up to overwatch 2 in characters after one year is amazing

[tropic vector]

good for them!!!

[wild shale]

but if any other game was gonna win, its no mans sky

[inland grotto]

that camera moved on its own, clearly the studio is haunted

[wild shale]

i do feel like alot of these awards have the problem of the same game winning multiple times

[normal eagle]

im so glad fortnite lost that catagory

[long marten]

I know that I've already said it but was there anything big that I missed from earlier from when I couldn't watch it

[tropic vector]

[wild shale]

[normal eagle]

i wasnt sure if to bring it up in fg chat or off topic

[wild shale]

[inland grotto]

[wild shale]

[earnest hill]

The server was always the busiest at the beginning of seasons with people talking about the new stuff or at the end with speculating what they might add next. That’s not a thing anymore

[wild shale]

very true

tomb raider

[inland grotto]

I saw a monkey

[tropic vector]

diwali is going on

[wild shale]

[earnest hill]

Zero interest in tomb raider. Player the first two in the reboot and couldn’t even be bothered with the third

[wild shale]

[tropic vector]

perhaps

[inland grotto]

meh, no gameplay

[inland grotto]

oh, good then

[wild shale]

yeah people are overreacting

[inland grotto]

saw a lot of people slamming it

[charred axle]

Seems to be Overreaction/Overhating from What I'm Hearing

[wild shale]

it has some unneeded stuff, but the core game is as good as before ive heard

oh this game from last year

man we have gotten alot of creature games since palworld

[inland grotto]

this one's giving off AI slop vibes

[tropic vector]

It was leaked months after game release

[normal eagle]

@wild shale you would know

[inland grotto]

lenny kravitz XD

what the hell XD

oooh

[wild shale]

no big surprise

[wild shale]

so many characters were leaked at launch

[inland grotto]

the black & white picture of christopher larkin like he is dead or something

[wild shale]

some were def fake to throw people off

[normal eagle]

yea its looking more and more like a sweep

[earnest hill]

This was the biggest slam dunk in the awards imo

[inland grotto]

absolutely

[wild shale]

[long marten]

what did e33 already win before other than best music

[wild shale]

there was no chance it didnt win this

[wild shale]

best indie and debut indie

[earnest hill]

Independent, debit indie, Jennifer English best performance

[wild shale]

and performance

[long marten]

[inland grotto]

Better typo than Daes from earlier

[wild shale]

this was teased in one of the game pass ads, the one with the cleaning

[normal eagle]

this is turning out to be like 2020s game awards, but with a good game instead of a dumpster fire

[tropic vector]

SHHHH

[inland grotto]

I missed that fortunately

[long marten]

man I clearly hate it when I try to play a game and it happens to take me into debit after it /j

[earnest hill]

I bought the E33 deluxe record set, so it’s definitely affected my debit card

[normal eagle]

i will gladly keep dunking on TLOU2 until the sun implodes
