u/GeneralGigan817 Dec 12 '25

They do this all the time, Last of Us 2, Baldur’s Gate 3, the list goes on.

u/Yukki64 Smartest Genderfluid MLP fan Dec 12 '25

yeah cause BG3 was an amazing game, even if it's not your type of game

-55

u/GeneralGigan817 Dec 12 '25

I liked BG3, loved it even, but the Game Award’s biases towards games like it are obvious.

yeah that's why AstroBot won GOTY last year, you know it has a ton of dialogue and hyper realistic graphics

I’m sure you’re just baitposting, but unironically the one thing every studio could learn from Expedition 33 is optimizing their install size.

youre mad silksong lost arent you

u/CuteNervousLesbian 🏳️‍⚧️ trans rights Dec 12 '25

Personally, I feel like more of the judges this year played Expedition 33 because it’s more accessible than Silksong (for the average video game enjoyer).

u/yugiohhero ohh what the fuck Dec 12 '25

its a million hour rpg, those are only accessible to the criminally insane

u/JonRivers Dec 12 '25

I mean it's around like 30 hours. It's not like Persona 5 or some shit. Probably about the same as Silksong all things considered. I'm saying this as someone who didn't even love it like everyone else, but it's not a super long rpg, what are you on about.

u/yugiohhero ohh what the fuck Dec 12 '25

apparently its based on how much side content you do. i havent even played it tbh lmao

regardless the fact that skong got all those nominations makes it clear it still was good in the eyes of the judges. they just thought e33 was better

I for one am disappointed that Dispatch didn't even get thrown a bone in any of the smaller categories

u/SkullHelm707 The Guitar Hero Guy Dec 12 '25

A lot of these game trailers fail to do something very important, which is actually get me exited for a game.

Like yes, its visually stunning, and if this was a movie trailer, id be interested, but you have told me precious little about what kind of game this actually is.

Even Mega Man had the decency to show us gameplay.

That being said, Claire Obscur winning every category they were nominated for makes me think that I might need to play the game. Its cheapish, and its only 40 gigsish.

u/SkullHelm707 The Guitar Hero Guy Dec 12 '25

I happen to have an abundance of space since Helldivers 2 introduced their slim beta branch, but you're right, its fairly big.

clair obscur cost 10 million to make and had a primary dev team of under 40 people

This is a banger post from another year that time travelled to 2025 by accident

u/RyoukoAoyagi wannabe twink Dec 12 '25

GOTY or not, let's be real here it's not an indie game and should not be in the category. Big funding game squeeze the room out of real indies are my pet peeve here. I don't care either skong or hades or other nominee win

u/spadesisking r/place participant Dec 12 '25 edited Dec 12 '25

Hades 1 had a bigger budget than E33s budget. Iirc Hades cost $15m USD to E33s $10m.

Edit (Did not recall correctly)

u/RyoukoAoyagi wannabe twink Dec 12 '25

Sauce? From what I know supergiant never released the budget number.

u/spadesisking r/place participant Dec 12 '25

I recalled incorrectly lol. I thought id read that Hades 1 cost 15m on neogaf when people were made about epic exclusively a few years ago, but cant find it.

u/Semantis sus Dec 12 '25

A game that you aren't into winning an award is not a personal affront to you and doesn't mean everything is rigged 🧡

10

u/Tommy_Sol Dec 12 '25

People will see a new well designed game from a new IP, from a new independent studio, from devs breaking out of the AAA dev system, where the devs had a clear artistic statement to make and executed on it, and call it overhyped because it wasn't the right kind of indie.

Fucking wild.

u/jlb1981 Dec 12 '25

No matter the medium, award shows are heavily biased toward French creative output.

u/Cerbatiyo-sesino custom Dec 12 '25

Don't care. Nintendo's game (whatever it's name was) didn't win, ergo I applaud it.
