Nope, BOTW was a better game. :3Mario was robbed
First game of the year award in the shows history.First (?) of many, Breath of the Wild was an EVENT. Salty about Automata though.

Might be fluff

no DMC 5?

between ?? dude, there was no competition at all
and even if there was a competition, it would have been between Zelda and Mario, but the gap is huge, Zelda is much MUCH better than the rest
in 2016 awards most people agreed that Overwatch should be the winner but some people though Online only games don't win so they expected Uncharted 4, good thing the winner is Overwatch and it's well deserved
in 2015 the competition was between Witcher 3, MGS V and Bloodborne, most people agreed that Witcher 3 should be the winner and it was and it's damn well deserved, but at least there was competition
in 2017 there is no competition at all, Zelda was already the winner since launch day
anyway, the show is better than i expected, more reveals than i though, but it took too long, it was 3 hours long
way too many ads. They just kept dragging on and on.

For Nintendo, I think you mean, right? Which is damn near absurd, I still can't believe Dragon Age Inquisition won over Bayo 2, that was a very low point for the Pope Awards. But what I meant is that it wasn't the first GOTY list this year right? I remember Time had one I believe. Regardless, there's 0 chance BOTW isn't going to win damn nearly everything. It's just a ridiculously well designed game.
For Nintendo in this particular event. I think.
And it really is absurd. They've had some amazing games that somehow got overlooked/ignored in previous years. And yes, BOTW should sweep most trophies up. It's that good. From the moment you get out of the cavern, you know it's going to be something special.
Me too ;_;
The results are very suspicious if they were supposed to be based on community votes. If it was just a popularity contest, What Remains of Edith Finch wouldn't have won anything because the vast majority of voters haven't even heard of the game, let alone played it. Same goes for Nier and Persona 5. Wolfenstein wouldn't have won anything either, given the lackluster sales compared to games like Destiny 2.
This seems much more like games journalists awards. The vast majority of games journalists are console gamers, so PC-exclusives like Divinity, XCOM and Total War never really stood a chance. I didn't see the whole show but it looks like they didn't announce best multiplayer game? I'm not seeing it on the official website results. They might have realized that not choosing PUBG would cast some serious doubts on the award credibility, since PUBG is easily the most popular multiplayer game this year.
It's 90% international jury, 10% fan vote if you read the FAQ/Rules.
I'm guessing Read Dead Redemption 2 has 2018 GOTY award locked down.
yup
and TLOU 2 has GOTY 2019 locked down, even if it's a disappointment, it will still win GOTY due to how much people loved the first game
i don't know, i never played any Metroid game, but i don't think there is gonna be a more hyped game than TLOU 2 in 2019Zelda is well deserved, the switch maybe small and less powerful but it has GOTY unlike ps4 and xbox.
What other games are coming in 2019?
Maybe metroid could come in 2019 and steal it from tlou2
Who won best fighting game?
Thank god. Thought Horizon was going to win.

So no big surprise at the end of the show.
Maybe PSX?

The TGA 2017 proves one thing; judges don't know shit about fighting games and they are giving the award based on appeal.
It can be objectively verified that Injustass 2 won simply because it features a recognized franchise of characters. If ANYONE dares to even say the game is as balanced, is in mechanical terms, technically superior to Tekken 7, then you have zero logic. That's it, this is something that one simply cannot subjectively argue from the perspective of what is a good fighting game vs what is a fun casual fighter.
A fighting game that is based off equipment with unbalanced characters to begin with being a "good" fighting game is ridiculous as it sounds. Don't get me wrong, injustass 2 CAN be fun and the story it offers is indeed, pretty good.
But look at it from the perspective of a pure fighting game? Yup, the judges are morons on this - plain and simple.
I think this is one of the first years where I agree with almost all of the winners
Where does it say that it's the award for best "pure fighting game"?
It's just called best fighting game and if this year a more casual fighter was the most fun then it deserves to win.
What you are saying is like saying that best racing game award should only be won by Racim sims with complex and realistic physics. As I see it, if Mario Kart is more fun than any racing sim then it deserves to win
Automata did win best OST, and it got dicey there with Cuphead and Persona 5. But we just don't deserve Taro.
It really wasn't, but these are essentially the Teen's Choice Awards of gaming so ultimately it doesn't matter. Remember Dragon Age Inquisition?Nope, BOTW was a better game. :3
