Lol. Lmao even. Kek and rofl.

starbleck won innovation and harry putzfuck won steam goty, both are getting hammered in the reviews. clearly nobody but the trolls voted this year

correction, pigfarts legacy won steam DECK goty, not goty - baldurs gate _(an _actually _good _game) won that award.
- oh good that's actually a relief
- I can't imagine that game being any fun to play on the Steam Deck. Well ever, but especially not on the Steam Deck.

Pizza Tower lost best soundtrack? To a fucking REMAKE?? this is all nonsense, from top to bottom. Fucking RDR2 beat out Deep Rock Galactic for "labor of love", fuuuuuuck offfff

RDR2 was a a labor of love? I thought it was a labor of not letting your workers see their familys for 120 hours straight
- but at rockstar, we are a family
- FYI, it can be both. You can be passionate about a project you're working on while management is abusing you, if anything it makes the abuse easier cuz they can exploit you're enthusiasm about the project.
I only got one thing to say

FOR ROCK AND STONE
But the horse balls shrivel in the cold or something.
Fucking RDR2 beat out Deep Rock Galactic for "labor of love"

I'm assuming that one, like Starfield winning the innovation award, was ironic. I'm not sure even the people voting for it can even tell anymore, though.
- Imo the people claiming it was some grand campaign to make it win "ironically" are coping and it was just a popularity contest.
RDR2 is my favorite game of all time, but it’s so odd that a 2018 game with 0 expansions and 0 effort in multiplayer updates gets to be nominated let alone win a “labor of love” award 6 years later.

No Man’s Sky would’ve been the much more appropriate choice considering it truly is a labor of love that has free expansions for a long ass time.

this is maybe the funniest possible game to win that award, of all time. never in my life have i heard so much about a game and yet the only thing i learned was that it was boring and completely unoriginal

i mean the harry potter game could have been funnier in a vacuum but that's the blood libel sim that puts millions of dollars in the pockets of big transphobia

bruh what

what did this pile of shit innovate?

how to make even more boring games?

Steam users gave it to Starfield as a joke
- well there goes the integrity of these awards
what did this pile of shit innovate?

How to make a titty mod work with a bulky realistic space suit.

Well, Starfield did one thing well

It made me reinstall The Outer Worlds, which is a better game in nearly every way that matters

don't forget to also try The Outer Wilds in solidarity for two space games having the same fuckin name coming out at pretty much the same time and making it almost impossible to discuss them without people confusing one for the other

it fucking slaaps
- Best space game
except for the part where it shoves horseshoe theory at your face

"supporting revolutionaries is still le bad if not worse, better to rot under kkkorporate kkkapitalism"

Personally, the writing in Starfield is merely bland but the Outer Worlds is actively annoying. Star field does the bare minimum to get me from quest marker A to B. The Outer Worlds does the equivalent of cracking a knock knock joke and then pausing to wait for me to applaud.

  That's because Starfield actively tries too be as inoffensive as possible to as many groups of people as possible. It is truly distilled corporate blandness.
  
  As a result of this it has literally nothing to say, no story, no conflict, no message, no art. It is background music to a television life insurance ad, entirely forgettable.
It also set a bar low enough that if Star Citizen were to somehow come out in this decade it would be guaranteed a positive comparison

My favorite part of video games is when people argue over which soulless company is the most soulless

That game was legitimately so boring that i truly felt like someone had hollowed me out inside. I once cried because i had spent 5 hours on it in one sitting and hated every second. I hate that fucking game so much it is the worst game I have ever played. That is not a hyperbole. No game, not even ones made by a 5 year old, have given me such a soul-ending sense of boredom.

This game is shit.

Would you say your bored to tears experience "innovative"?
- its unique ability to drain me of joy and happiness is quite innovative indeed. I have never before felt such complete loneliness, self-hatred, and mind numbing from any form of media.
  
  Its brought to life a new frontier of CIA torture methods to be used against anyone with braincells, and has given me a new perspective on how stupidly cucked gamers are. This game was so bad that it made Cyberpunk 2077 seem like an absolute masterpiece.

Doing shit I don't like for hours to own... myself?
- If you have spent a lot of money into something you tend to give it a bit more of a chance. Plus, tons of copers were saying “Starfield is amazing you just have to get past the boring beginning section”.
  
  It was all boring

313 hours in Cyberpunk

Preem.

I can't wait for opinions on Cyberpunk to completely flip again after GTA6 releases and has a properly working sandbox. The cop system update has drastically improved it but they're still missing so much. Imagine if it had actually tried to be good instead of just pretty.

Pretty sure opinions on it will flip back and forth frequently. Everyone clearly wants to like it but it just doesn't meet the expectations.
- Clearly needs a sort of gang war system, and the cops are just another gang that's hovering over the other gangs. And... idk.
  
  I think it would be a shame for the map to go to waste though, it's a pretty big high detail map (with not much to do in it).
- Eh, they're trying to do different things. Cyberpunk is more about the narrative and first person combat, while GTA will be more about the sandbox and a horrendous microtransaction-riddled multiplayer mode.
  
  Having played Cyberpunk quite a bit both before (2 full playthroughs) and after (Phantom Liberty + a bit of messing around) the big update that "fixed" cops, it didn't really make a difference. Sure, cops won't teleport behind you, but just like before there is no reason to ever interact with the cops because they don't give you loot, XP, or money. Getting a wanted level was always just a random accident due to either accidentally hitting a cop car while driving somewhere or a stray bullet hitting a civilian.
  
  For what it's worth I'd still consider Cyberpunk to be bad, but it's better than GTA5 because at least the implied setting is interesting.
- I don't know why people are still so keen to hate on Cyberpunk. It's actually pretty fun. I've always likened it to Oblivion: not at all what was promised and janky as hell, but still very fun and engrossing and charming in its own way. It's dripping with flavor, even if it tends on the shallower side.

Edit: Oh wait these awards were given out by everyday users good on them lmao joker-dancing

Kek

cringe

Always an experience whenever I see someone still saying "kek" in the wild
On hexbear, we say bur
- Counterpoint: here we give that one anon who tried to make zozzle a thing the respect he deserves.
- zug zug

Gamers are such fucking cucks to not have this game at 'mostly negative' reviews

They're working on it
- looking rn, its glorious to behold

I spent so much time configuring the perfect spaceship and the fucking automatically generated labyrinthine interiors drove me up the fucking wall. Whoever decided that we just want procedurally generated garbage needs to be put out a fucking airlock.
