Rockstar showing CDPR how open world story telling is done.

Nope.

 

[MrS]

RDR2 truly is one of the most overrated games of last gen. Has like 2 good chapters out of 6 and a garbage epilogue.

What? The Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk are both great at storytelling. RDR2 is great too, but definitely not a case of "showing them how it's done."

 

[Pejo]

Fuck yea, Ori was the only one I really cared about winning its category. Nice.

 

[BaneIsPain]

One of the best slow burn game last gen

Cliffs notes on Labor of Love award, please?

Cliffs notes on Labor of Love award, please?

Games that have been out for a long time that have been getting updates in gameplay/content

 

[YCoCg]

Still annoyed Streets of Rage 4 wasn't included in Best Soundtrack yet some generic ass EA games were.

 

[Psos]

Yeah, These are pretty nice choices.

 

[Tschumi]

None of CDPR games could be nominated for the categories in which RDR2 won.

Cyberpunk wasn't eligible for this years awards.

Red dead redemption 2 doesnt deserve it. good game but story was nothing special.

plus it is not a 2020 game. Just released on pc in 2020.

 

[Sean Mirrsen]

plus it is not a 2020 game. Just released on pc in 2020.

Yes. Which is why it's in 2020 Steam Awards.

 

[Lanrutcon]

Cyberpunk wasn't eligible for this years awards.

Mercifully. Gives it a year to get its shit together.

 

[waquzy]

Nope.

Yep

It wouldn't have made any difference whatsoever

 

[Murr]

It wouldn't have made any difference whatsoever

Cyberpunk would have won easily.

 

[Banjo64]

Much better than winners chosen by the game awards. Good to see Ori and Doom getting recognition.

 

[waquzy]

Cyberpunk would have won easily.

As much as I like Cyberpunk, I really doubt it

 

[DGrayson]

Glad to see Doom get at least one award. Great soundtrack.

 

[Explosive Zombie]

Why would it win a Steam Award for 2018 if it wasn't on Steam in 2018?

 

[Guilty_AI]

well, sort of expected something like this, just popularity contest results

rockstar games are probably the worst example of how to do storytelling in open world

 

[Gen.Grievous]

Only games on that list I've played are RDR2 and Doom. RDR2 has an Incredible world but the story dragged on far too long, didn't even finish the epilogue. Doom is like the most mediocre shit I've played all year.

 

[martino]

i'm so glad for ori

 

[Kacho]

Satisfactory got robbed in the Sit Back & Relax category
