This is by far the best video I’ve ever watched
its been a lot like that recently
i somewhat feel like people have been holding back a bit for 2025
all the video game companies have big things cooking for 2025, and there are rumors this is even being done as a unified front
look up project 2025 for more info
im unsure if you occasionally get tortured into posting these things on fol and then have your memory wiped of the occassion or if you also have a pact to save the world no matter the cost of your pride
idk
balatro is awesome
astro bot is allegedly really cool
I find it hard to believe Metaphor isn’t worthy
and I’ve heard basically only good things about Black Myth: Wukong
I will admit that a DLC being nominated is kinda whatever but like its Elden Ring
you not having heard of fantastic games doesn’t make them not fantastic
astrobot is really cool but its like super mario being nominated
which is valid if the game is awesome?
video games don’t have to be linear cinematic setpieces to be game of the year
whilst super mario is cool its not winning more than a few “you exist” awards
somebody making apparently the best 3D platformer game in a hot minute (a genre that is widely loved for a reason, mind you) is entirely plausibly game of the year
no it does when they’re supposed to be game of the year lol
well orangeandblack5 i’ll see you at the ceremony
no it really doesn’t
metaphor fucking swept jrpg circles harder than FFVII Rebirth (because it’s a better game cough) and astro bot did the same for platformer fans (which again are like everywhere because the genre has such a massive legacy that making a new, innovating, awesome one is genuinely hard af)
game of the year doesn’t need to be the most popular in your little echo chamber on tiktok or whatever
very unneccesarily rude
wasn’t intending to come off that way, my apologies
can definitely see how that sounds demeaning af I just know you’re the tiktok guy
No I know exactly how you meant it
I’m not going to engage with you with this anymore
kyo it was only meant in the way you constantly call everything I like “for old people”
light ribbing at a small age difference with no genuine attempt to be malicious or insulting behind it
I’m sorry it didn’t land but I would ask that you look at the number of times you’ve thrown the same kind of thing at me in the other direction before you get genuinely upset with me here
i think i want a beef wellington
