Nah at it's core TGA is being criticized for being an ad and has been so for years. That's not to say the show doesn't make mistakes that's to say people shytting on it for being what it is instead of focusing on the awards are laughable when there is existing proof audiences are meh on that.
nikka, literally none of the quoted posts in the OP are upset about it being an ad. None of the tweets responding to Geoff were upset about it being an ad. All nikkas were asking is to give them more than 30 secs and not to cut them off mid speech with loud ass music and a big ass sign.
The IGN article isn't even upset about it being ad.
It's you two being fukking obtuse about what people are saying; nikkas tune in for the premiers and trailers of course, but that doesn't detract from EVERYONE noticing how sudden speeches were cut.
Find me one tweet in the OP that's upset it's an ad or asking for 5 min speeches.
Hell, Parris and a few others just said extend it by 30 mins and give them all like a min and a half. You got shorty from Horizon basically saying the same shyt lmaoooo
In the year with some of the biggest and most widespread layoffs and studio closures, where a CRPG won GOTY, y'all nikkas are defending them being cut off so Geoff can make stupid ass jokes with a muppet that nobody remembers and everybody thought was awkward.
