Deserved winners.
However, I firmly believe Brian Bloom as
BJ Blazcovicz should've won best performance.
Bet with Intrinsic:
The Switch will outsell 3DS (based on VGchartz numbers), according to me, while Intrinsic thinks the opposite will hold true. One month avatar control for the loser's avatar.
I'm fine with all, except eSports and Strategy game. eSports is just personal preference (League) and I just can't believe that Mario x rabbids beat an actual XCOM game. Like what?

Nah....great too but Melina Juergens totally deserved it for Hellblade.
| Miyamotoo said: Game of the Year Zelda: Breath of the Wild Agreed. So glad Breath of the Wild got the spot it deserved. Best Game Direction Zelda: Breath of the Wild Again, agreed. While not every change it made to the Zelda formula was a good one, it all coalesced into a fantastic get with wonderful direction. Best Narrative What Remains of Edith Finch Best Art Direction Cuphead Best Score / Music NieR: Automata Best Audio Design Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice Best Performance Melina Juergens, Hellblade Games for Impact Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice Was it really so good that it won't this many awards? Best Ongoing Game Overwatch Best Mobile Game Who cares?
Best Handheld Game Metroid: Samus Returns Best VR / AR Game Resident Evil 7 A Capcom game winning awards? Preposterous. Best Action Game Nioh First major disagreement. Wolfenstein wasn't even half the game NioH was. Best Action / Adventure Game Zelda: Breath of the Wild Best Role Playing Game Persona 5 It only took, what, six years? Best Fighting Game Injustice 2 Best Family Game Super Mario Odyssey Oh hey, there's a Mario game. Best Strategy Game XCOM 2: War of the Chosen What? Rabbids beat XCOM2? Excuse me? Best Sports / Racing Game GT Sport Best Anticipated Game The Last of Us Part II Honestly, any of these titles could have won this. Best Independent Game Cuphead Best Debut Indie Game Cuphead Ending in double awards for a deserving title. I'd play it if I was a fan of bullet hell shooters. Sure is pretty, though. |

I don't deny that, but Zelda was still the better game and that has a lot to do with Aonuma, the director, which transformed the most prestigious franchise ever into something radically different from the last 20 years and it worked spectacularly well. |
You didn't offer a single legitimate counterpoint. You simply praised the director and made a vague comment of how it transformed the series. If you're going to argue that it deserved this award more than Horizon, the least you could do is give reasoning.

I don't get this, awards don't change game experience. Horizon is one of the best games I've played this generation, but this year was insane competition wise. Persona 5, Nier, Nioh, and of course Zelda were all tough games to go up against. I mean Half Life and Metal Gear Solid came up short to Ocarina of Time in 1998 in many game awards, doesn't change how great or important they are. |
Social media groups have had massive back and fourths unfortunately many HZD fans back when it launched ran riot before the other games arrived and today has just been a day of retribution for fans of other game, the memes are funny as hell though.

The game's direction has changed the dynamic of how open world games will be approach that itself beats out anything HZD did, the absolute freedom was applied to every aspect of design in the game for reference play BOTW and explore the world then come back and play any other open world game the first thing that sticks out is how restrictive other designs now feel I'm seeing this while playing XBC2, BOTW's direction makes it the first open world adventure where players can really dictate how they want the game to play out and that design requires high execution in direction to pull off. Also to Goodnight Aonuma wasn't the director it was Hidemaro (SS' director).
If anything the only game that imo matches BOTW for this particular category is Nier:A as it utilised a unique approach to lore and story telling.

You don't have to tell all of that, I agree with the award. I was just saying that if someone is going to debate then he can't just say "the director was great and changed the status quo" and call it a day.

It's a pity that Horizon Zero Dawn did not win an award but like a French Youtuber said, it's probably due to the fact that 2017 has so many great games and is one of the best years ever for gaming.

Ahhh right, it looked like you were asking him for reasoning.
