If you thought your day was hard remember Dream won best creator at the game awards

After watching today's 2023 game awards, this video aged like a fine wine.
Even worse now, when theres photos of the telepeompters saying "Please wrap it up" after a measly 30 second of talktime for the developers to express gratitude. I reckon its probably due to the Chris Judge issue last year, but they overcorrect it too much it looks really rude to one on the stage.. 😬

Finally, someone else is upset Octopath didn't win best soundtrack.

I definitely agree with a lot of what you stated here. I feel the Awards not only need to be more fair and supportive, with A LOT more research.

I've never watched the game awards. Thanks for convincing me to continue that tradition!

Bro I’m still so weirded out Best Music got the “side category” treatment of not even being presented it’s so confusing

Feels like this video is going to be an annual watch at this point because no lessons will ever be learned lol

I watched it expecting a new Sunbreak trailer, just to be bombarded with random ads after ads, only to be greeted with a minute long teaser. I was wondering why they put so little effort in awards in a awards show but now I understand why the whole thing is a mess lol

I think you make a really good point about intent vs impact. I believe Geoff has genuine passion for the industry and wants to celebrate its accomplishments, but the show just doesn’t do a good enough job at highlighting the actual talent and innovation that should be recognized.
I’ve been watching since 2017, and I honestly feel like it’s gotten worse every year. The show is so bloated with trailers for generic games that no one ever talks about afterwards. I honestly think if they want to keep all of the content, they should just stop mixing it together.
If Geoff really wants his own E3, fine? I guess? But do it either before or after the awards, not at the same time. The show should be a reflection on the year behind us, not a ~cinematic~ sneak peak into the next

Car Quest didn't win Game of the Year, so clearly this "Game Awards" thing is an utter sham

I would like to see every type of award show add shames categories to the list. For example, the gaming industry could have a "Worker Abuse Shame" where they give out an "award" for the studio that overworked their employees the most. If they do not come up to claim their shame(s), they are ineligible for any awards they may have won, and the next runner-up is given the award instead. Have the shames come first so the audience never even knows the shamed studio won any awards unless they owned their shame first. What you would see is a lot of big name studios being shamed into submission through loss of sales if they own their shame, or a lot of indie games, devs and studios being put on the map by winning awards they earned without abusive practices. Plus, award shows would suddenly be worth watching, because the consumer could use them to learn what goes on behind the scenes of their favorite games.

8:55 Cap, you should have put a stopwatch onscreen to measure how long did he spend in each category. Missed opportunity there.

Cant wait for this video to get even more accurate next year 👍

Best Role-playing Game category got shafted, which is ironic because every AAA game nowadays wants to tack on unnecessary RPG mechanics.

The problem is we keep tuning in and hyping ourselves up.

I’m a simple man, I see a Captain Astronaut video, I watch.

Yo, the Fire Emblem Echoes soundtrack! You have taste!

Dedicated Oscar watcher here, and it's weirdly refreshing to hear someone praise the Oscars (Parasite was easily the best Best Picture of the decade, yeah).

As someone who went to college for Game Art, I completely agree with how much change the industry needs, and it's one of the things that makes me super hesitant to apply for work in the field. The crunch culture is super daunting, and needs to change for the better, immediately.
