| coolbeans said: Sea of Thieves can literally dish out a *free* narrative-focused expansion, free of dogshit characters, and still get shafted by TGAs. Cyberpunk isn't even a "live service" by its own admission; it's literally just updating to something closer to its original promise & a beefy expansion. |
Preach!!!
Rare has been pumping out free updates non-fucking stop since 2018...Awesome licensed narrative expansions such as Pirates of the Caribbean and Monkey Island, stories told with the upmost respect to their licensed IPs and still absolutely nothing. It was clear to me that when Sea of Thieves wasn't nominated for Best Ongoing in PotC year that it never will be....The ONLY thing I could see causing it a small chance of being nominated would be a One Piece crossover now.
You're correct about Cyberpunk too, Lol. I feel like it is only being nominated because of 1.7 and Phantom Liberty and the 1.5 (in 2022) & 1.7 updates are basically to bring it to its original promise. Not trying to dig at Cyberpunk but there are a lot of "Ongoing" games that are releasing significant updates and content all year round, not just in September. It's pretty obvious like I said though that the picks for Best Ongoing are just them looking at a list of what is most played and picking from that.
