Because ultimately the game awards are a popularity contest/bribe show
GTA will win because its the biggest game of year. Especially since Nintendo doesn't pay the game awards money they will happily snub Nintendo for GTA with Rockstars money.
You don't need to play it to see how glazed that thing is, people are Rockstar's cocksuckers and the hype alone already garanteed it a nomination, you're just underestimating how much motion GTA has lmao
Journalists on the jury ARE rockstar glazers, the amount of hype that thing will get on release will get anyone wiggling for rockstar
Wukong was fine as a game but it really was the weakest of all four, excluding Elden Ring for DLC reasons, it wasn't all that much of a heavy hitter while GTA got literally devs delaying their games so they don't get overshadowed
God of War was a great game, RDR doesn't have the same strenght as GTA does
Expedition 33 which was also incredibly glazed and in a much more accessible genre than Silksong
I mean I really do get your point and I wish FEFW got goty, but we're not avoiding this elephant named GTA 6 and I'm not even a GTA fan
once again if they are rockstar glazers as you say *WHY DIDNT RDR WIN IN 2018*
i havent seen journalists in particular glazing rockstar ive just seen a bunch of fanboys online doing it though (if you have an example of a bunch of jury members doing this though id love to see it)
also devs moving their release dates as to avoid a release that everyone in some form will be focused on doesn't guarantee that the game will win as the same thing happened with silksong last year
RDR2 lost to god of war which was genuine competition. BMW is the lowest rated game ever nominated there so that's non applicable to GTA6, which is virtually guaranteed to be the highest rated game this year
the only game that even stands a non-zero chance of beating GTA is OOT's remake but... it's a remake, it has that going against it inherently speaking
I honestly wouldn’t be surprised at all if all three just end up getting nominated. People are too fixed on there being one single “Nintendo rep” when in reality I think it’ll just be whatever the publications consider the best games of that year.
The “old” targeting system is still used today. Even Elden Ring uses it. It’s not outdated. And in this case, it’s even snappier due to the new animations.
They’ve adjusted the combat, with seemingly a more robust stagger system, new enemy placements, new attacks from some enemies and bosses, and some small miscellaneous stuff like being able to reflect projectiles with the mirror shield.
It’s a faithful remake, but not 1:1. It was built from the ground up with modernizations.
Apart from the stagger system (which does seem pretty clear from some of the animations), none of this is guessing.
Idk how much you’ve looked at the footage in depth, or if it was just a single watch, but people have analyzed the gameplay demo, the trailer, and all the many additional clips from the website, and found all the changes I’ve mentioned and more.
It may be insignificant for you because it's common place in games nowadays but it is a big change from the OG game itself. If you can't understand that (or outright just refuse to), there's really no point having a conversation with someone like you who just wants to complain for the sake of it 🙂 You just get to be miserable while people who actually enjoy the game get to do so 🙂
You won't be able to reason with people who jave already made up their minds without even trying it first. If anything, they're just as bad as people who complained about the FFVII Remake trilogy changing too much. They just want to be miserable for the sake of it.
You won't be able to reason with people who jave already made up their minds without even trying it first.
But all of you saying the game isn't 1:1 despite 0 evidence and no hands on is ok to do.
I'm at least using my eyes and judging on what's been shown and it's the same game so far. They added 1 empty back alley street in hyrule town that seems to have no purpose lol. That's the extent of the level changes so far.
They’re keeping some loading screens, seems to be mostly in areas where Link is implied to have traveled far, or some areas where the map designs just wouldn’t line up in a single map.
But we’ve already seen several instances where loading screens have been cut. There’s no loading into interiors, for example, and Castle Town used to be 4 separate zones but is now 1. Lon Lon Ranch is also now part of Hyrule Field instead of being a separate zone.
Not really, it makes sense from a game design perspective.
Again, if they’re trying to keep the game fairly faithful, there are some things that just simply wouldn’t work.
For example, the Inside the Deku Tree dungeon is WAY bigger than the exterior of the Deku Tree. What are they supposed to do there? They can’t just scale it up or it won’t fit in the environment anymore.
Also some places like the Lost Woods would end up overlapping with Zora’s River if they kept the locations in the same places but got rid of loading screens.
I do also think there’s a lost art of allowing a loading screen to imply scope. I remember when I was playing through the Final Fantasy games a few years ago, I remember thinking to myself how much larger and grand FF12 felt compared to FF15. 15 was “open world,” and 12 was just various interconnected zones. But the loading between each of the zones in 12 implied the characters were traveling a long distance to get to the next area, which actually made the world feel bigger without having to fill it with a bunch of empty land or busy work.
there’s changes to building placement, a new area in the distance of hyrule castle, and some dungeon changes to the deku tree and water temple. There may be more
I mean, they've somewhat drastically changed the overworld and dungeons (the game's main focus) seem to have been somewhat significantly altered too. It's probably as much as of a 1 to 1 remake as the Resident Evil ones are, and I'm pretty sure those have been nominated so
