Great show, I was really hoping for a legend of Zelda trailer

I took them at their word but I guess they mean best creative direction rather than best direction because the video game director is involved with how the game plays as they oversee all aspects of the game. In most cases the game director was deeply involved in the gameplay loop.
I mean this isn't film where the director of a film doesn't necessary write the screenplay but they guide the filming of the screenplay with their vision to the finished product. It's much easier to separate a film director's work from the rest of the parts of a film.
Like tonight Elden Ring won both. Makes more sense if you're talking about actual game direction rather than just creative direction for the game of the year to also be the best directed game.
Did that translator shout out the Oakland Raiders and Mentos during the acceptance speech? And nobody noticed that random kid hop on stage until he shouted out Bill Clinton? 
this whole show was a waste of bandwidth

was it that serious?
The Ghost of Marvel must be contained, no telling what he could have done up there.

I just thought of something. At the 2019 Game Awards. Microsoft announced and showed the Xbox Series X, and showed a Hellblade 2 teaser. When that happened. A lot of Xbox fans were saying Xbox is prepared for next gen. Xbox is coming out swinging. Sony is unprepared. Fast forward to the Game awards 2022 and 
The same wait until next year excuse (even though I think they really are finally dropping some games next year, hopefully they’re great).

I’m actually very surprised they didn’t show anything

Don't know how you can win game of the year for a game with such a nonsensical story. There is literally no plot. Just a social media/meme juggernaut. This had no business beating GOW

GoW had its big cultural moment in 2018. This was Fromsofts year, they transcended gaming circles, its the same reason stray won so many awards on a much smaller level.

Bill Clinton is going to wake up tomorrow and be very confused as to why he was trending on social media at the Video Game Awards. What an amusing thought.
Didn't expect a post like this from someone who plays video games.
I don't understand what winning the best game of the year has to do with having a story but whatever
