Why not just watch another award show if you don’t like the style of this one? Why does Geoff gotta change the format of the biggest, most successful award show to fit your needs?

And Geoff Keighly doesn’t decide who wins awards. You was in the thread watching it along with everyone else, having a blast.

Yall do the same thing with popular games. You run out and buy them, and then spend the next month criticizing them and acting like you’r above playing them after the fact
I watch it because the show has exclusive news and trailers, that's all it boils down to.

It would be cool if the awards part of the show was you know, actually good.

I mean would it kill him to actually get the awards part of the game awards correct at the very least?

Let's not act like I ain't been complaining about TGA though. I've been complaining about and hating on geoff for this and being a fanboy for years now.

It's just that this year was so good for gaming people actually wanted to hear from those who won awards, and questioned certain things like why 3rd party games are winning best indie.

Bro gaming industry discussions on the internet are 100% fueled by the biggest losers on the planet and shouldn’t be taken seriously. At least on here I know nikkas are trolling mostly.
Thank you for your contribution:wow:

You and everyone else.

No one actually cares about the awards, even for other big award shows like the Grammys or Oscars. The most ratings those events get is when there is drama behind it. Which is why they’ve been falling in viewership every year.


In order to get people to care about the awards you gotta give them somethign else they really want to see. It’s why people who don’t watch the NFL still all watch the Super Bowl like it’s a national holiday. People want the singing, the half time show, the commercials and trailers, etc.

You will never get the common consumer to genuinely care about other people recieving awards. you can complain about the awards all you want, but at the end of the day you are tuning in to watch over 3 hours of it, unlike other awards.

People already locked in for the games, he has the bait. This year people were actually interested in the awards and that's why the convo is making rounds.

People usually don't care or pay attention to awards like that, this year they did and it's probably been the worst year to date for awards and the people behind games.


The icing was him actually rushing people off stage and cutting people off so fast that even casuals are like what's going on?

Meanwhile he got kratos up there talking about absolutely nothing outside of him talking to long last year.

And Gonzo wasting time meanwhile he rushing the no mans sky guy so he can show the trailer

:mjlol:

And he kept most of us locked in for 3.5 hours of show.

You know how hard it is to keep an audience engaged for that long these days? Especially a gaming audience?

I bet if he cut out the shenanigans and let these devs ramble on for 3-5 minutes at time most of us would complain about the show being badly paced and boring.

Sorry breh Geoff is a shill

I actually wanted to see the developers who make all this piff; thank the familys and ones who passed.

He even admitted he fukked up. Gotta find a better balance. I love Kojima but that shyt was unnecessary asf. Show the clip say some shyt in japanese and dip doggie. Condense some of these anime game ads.

Musical numbers was way too left But he wanna appeal to a broader audience? Smokin them dorito flakes i persume mixing the yak with mountain dew idk

its also funny how most of the complaining is coming from outside the club. Most of the developers that attended seems like they loved being there, the ones nominated and even the those who didn’t win.

Who are we supposed to shed tears for?

it is what it is. gamers need to be abit more open minded and less judgmental. that judgmental shyt will take years off of your life man I'm telling you. especially if its little shyt. but i also didnt watch live. there's only a few things that im watching live these days.

this was a great year for gaming. i agree that they should've celebrated 2023 more instead of all the 2024 stuff. but im happy to see gaming grow into a hobby that accepts all energy and is open to all

I mean there are other video game award shows so why does this matter? People are acting like this is the only one in existence. If you don’t like the way they do things don’t watch and give your viewership to a different show.
