>>1944495 the painted world is a separate world that has not effect in the real world, its like a playing a video game, you turn it on, characters come back, you turn it off, characters disappear, there is no long term consequences and far as I know it was just a dream. >but the painted characters do you care about the lives of NPCs every time you turn off a game ? I don't care, they are not real, they are simulated entities, they are not intelligent, they don't have any desire beyond what is being given to them, they exist only to entertain me, its the same thought I have for the characters in E33, no one them try to rebel upon realizing their lives will end when the lady leaves the painting, they are NPCs in a game, and thus there is no reason to care about their fate. >but the personal journey of the red head lady Exactly, its a teenage drama about depression, addiction, and a story about dysfunctional family, the moment I realized this I lost all interest I had for the game, I see what you are doing game, just because you have unique designs doesn't change the fact its a normalfag tier story.

I never have hopes for TGAs but the nom list was still a letdown. The categories are all weird, why wasn't the Alters nominated for best sound design yet dudebro FPS were? It always feels like a recap of the most popular games of the year.

>that lineup Save perhaps for E33 (That I still have yet to try but Cultic distracted me), I'm not impressed, especially the racing games, it's just Mario Kart (and people said this one was disappointing), its direct opponent and F1 (that I heard was also disapointing). It just makes me want to know what other racist games came out this year instead.

The awards to games ratio feels pretty slim, making the already redundant GOTY awards feel even more redundant. Might as well add categories like "game with the best scents" or "boldest use of the color gray".

>>1946037 Ideally this is right way to do it in practice, the popular vote is botted to shit and in general selects for the most obsessively online people by nature of how the votes are taken and the journos all hate videogames on top of being political activists who base every decision around "what would make the chuds mad" type logic people complain a lot about systems and governance and stuff like that, but at the end of the day it's the people who suck first and foremost the systems are fucked up too, and at this point everyone knows TGAs is the Tencent ad segment, but even if it weren't the people would still suck
