The Game Awards is a scam

[Halfling Rodeo]

The TGA is primarily about Geoff Keighley raking in money for himself. Full stop.

Could you explain how he makes money and why? There's nothing to give money to and who the fuck is paying for this stupidity?

Doritos, razer or whoever the fuck is sponsor and has obvious ads or product placement visible during the whole circus.

Dude, were you born yesterday?

TGA is a private business venture, nothing more. Keighley puts on a song&dance extravaganza, sweetens the deal with some exkloozive trailers and captures millions of eyeballs. Which he promptly sells to the advertisers.

And people are happily turning themselves into a product and for what? Just so they can learn what some anonymous randos consider "the best game" and for a smattering of trailers which are actually advertisements too.

I'm aware it's a business. I want to know how he makes money because live streaming trailers can't be funding how much shit goes into this stuff.

Dorito Pope is a true hero, he steals millions of dollars from AAA gaming companies so they can promote their slop during his low effort award show.

 

[Machocruz]

The rot has already set in. When you see people online say "X won goty", they almost always mean TGA and TGA only now. Decline is undefeated.

 

[gabel]

Decline is eternal.
