| Chazore said: Good, it's about time devs woke up to the nonsensical GOTY awards show not being about them, but about ad space, celebs and self patting. I hope more devs get annoyed and raise a stink about it for the next one, because that show really needs to revamp itself into what it should be, not what it currently is. I didn't even watch this years show, because I care little for it at this point (the awards list doesn't even make sense and the majority of winners outside of BG3 really don't make sense either). Devs should honestly make their own show and gate out the rest, because I don't see Geoff budging. That guy ignored anyone below him that wasn't a celeb before, I doubt he gives a shit about the thousands oif devs he actively ignores each year. |
The DICE Awards are what you're asking for, but no one cares for them. People watch the TGA due to the world premieres. In a few months, nobody will remember who won shit except maybe for GOTY. No one wants to hear a dev praising their dog and whatnot for minutes on end.
Granted, they did overcorrect due to Christopher Judge's long-ass speech last year, and Geoff already recognized that 30 seconds was too little. It should be something like one minute for most awards and two for the GOTY... which, by the way, would already be *longer* than the average time the Oscars give to their winners.
