The Game Awards 2018

Mortal Combat 11 trailer is here:



Also, Forza Horizon 4 won the sports/racing category.

Looks like a Psychonauts something is coming.
 
In the future, I predict there will be an adult category for gaming. Nothing to do with nudity, but a category for actual older gamers. Why? Because there is no way I would play Rage 2 after watching that trailer. :)

Not really impressed. Will play for Joseph Seed though.

Well the fact it appears to be an actual true sequel as far as the story goes makes me a little less salty about the ending(s) of the FC5, lets just hope it doesn't have some "progression meter" that automatically pulls you out of what you're doing and forces you to follow the story progression and then drops you off somewhere not related to where you were.
 
These awards are just the game industry breathing in their own farts. Nobody listens to whatever the mainstream anything has to say about games. This is the reason why so many big AAA gaming companies had a massive stock drop when they realized that nobody likes micro-transactions. They thought everyone loved micro-transactions and couldn't get enough. Too much fart breathing.
 
that new obsidian game , Outer Worlds, looks so janky with a No Man Sky vibe, and another game with a similar art style . ( Rage 2, then New Dawn, then this)

but that RAGE 2 & Survived By, trailer was fun
 
disappointed with the new game reveals and trailers for upcoming games...only 1 really stood out- The Outer Worlds from developer Obsidian
 
I'm glad God of War Won. I beat and stopped playing GoW two days before getting Red Dead Redemption 2, now I'm about 12 hours into red dead redemption 2 and I find myself just powering through it. Its not a bad game by any means but the pacing is slower than herd of snails stampeding through an uphill road covered in honey. I also hate the horse riding simulator in it. After 10 hours I should just be able to just fucking pay someone from my crew to take me where I want to go I don't want to spend 5-10 minutes between missions just clicking x to get to my next location because if I just let it "autopilot" it's self ill hit someone and get hurt and possibly a bounty. There's tons of little things that annoy the hell out of me (the slow ass walking pace Arthur has in camps and that if someone bumps you, starts a fight and you beat them up or kill them, purely self defense, you get a fucking bounty. Just to name a few).

When I get home I'm going to start a new game + in GoW.

Rant over.

Moment of the night, by a huge margin, was when they were announcing the nominations for best sports/racing game.

"sports bring us together with love, teamwork and the sense of community, let's see our nominees"

(MK11 GRAPHIC MURDER AND HATE TRAILER ROLLS)

"I guess they ran the wrong video"

------------------
also, FC:ND 2 months away seems a little. . .lets say, undercooked?

They need a host that's not tuting his own TGA horn every carmera shot, a way to better organize the trailers they're spitting out, and interviews where the head of Nintendo America isn't muttering 'We're super excited' over and over again regardless of any question he's asked like an autistic rain man. Xbox Phil looked miserable when asked about the 2018 for xbox this year and didn't even have a competent canned remark to play off to. Brutal.

Getting a dozen small indie games to announce isn't the industry. It's just a no brainer for them with the size of the audience TGA had. With the 'golden age of gaming' every fapped off to all night, they sure didn't show it with the content. Other than overall being a long ad for Smash Bros and a love affair with RDR2, the scope was misguidedly limited, and clearly lacks the industry as a whole. There are other FPS on the market besides PUBG and Fortnight right? Was it just me or is every game that was announced an open world exploration game including a jungle environment, desert environment, and snow environment?

The Stanley Parable narrator breaking the 4th wall to admit how greedy they are just tacking on a few little additions to the original game for console release in a cash grab that all the idiot consumers will fall for because he needs money for a 3rd swimming pool was pretty funny.
 
LOL @ far cry new dawn - take what should be season pass holder DLC for FC5 and turn it into a new game. The monetization never ends

Wow they trained you well. You're upset about a whole new game that follows a story line, and instead wish you got to pay for DLC that adds an extra ending to your game :D :D :D

Fuck the guy who brought politics to the awards show?

Well, look at who it was. He is a furry, so he is obviously persecuted and trying to avoid the gestapo on a daily basis.

Sorry to break it to you, but nobody cares that you're a furry. Tumblr ruined that victim status for you.

nah, I never get UBI dlc. It is only more of the same. I only finished one area of FC5. The entire game is so formulaic that it is boring.
 
They sure did check that LGBTQ+ box a few times last night didn't they. Would not be a contemporary award show without doing it. Jesus.

Also, kudos to the God of War team for the win. That game deserved it for doing things right instead of doing what was politically acceptable.
