[QUOTE=kanesenpai~;39050889]HEALTH did such an amazing job with the soundtrack
they really deserve more recognition for it[/QUOTE]
It was way different from the prior games, but I found the soundtrack fucking great.
Especially all the music in the final chapter.
I'd have to say I want Hotline Miami to win best sountrack. It actually deserves it.
I love how Far Cry 3 in aesthetics is just a pair of tits.
[QUOTE=kanesenpai~;39050180]I'll never get people's beef with KS fans, ESPECIALLY on /v/.
They always sticked to their own threads, people were always bitching about nothing. League of Legends fans are much worse.[/QUOTE]
Most of the beef with KS fans comes from the people who actually enjoyed it. A relatively small portion of the fanbase has been beating it to death for months now and people don't want to be associated with them.
[QUOTE=Nemisis116;39050895]Sanic award has to be Hotline Miami
fucking christ an entire life can be over within 1 second of playing
Why is there so little of Far Cry in here, I wanted it to be my least worst game award[/QUOTE]
Because it actually stacks up pretty badly even when compared to even Far Cry 2 which was a pretty huge blunder itself. There are only 3 different scenarios in the game, climbing radio towers, clearing outposts, and clearing out caves. The AI was mediocre, the stealth mechanics poorly fleshed out and incredibly forced, sound design was a serious step down from 2, crafting was unnecessary and forced, the menus were a pain in the ass to navigate on PC, the characters were obnoxious and the 2 out of the 3 decent ones were either killed off halfway through the game or ended up barely having a presence in the story, came with two pieces of DRM for PC, and to top it all off all of the boss fights were quick time events. It's only real upsides were the graphical quality and presentation, and the environment itself.

Really? I occaisionally go to the KSG threads in /vg/ and even then I don't see much asshattery, except for the infighting between tripfags, but that shit happens all over.
[QUOTE=kanesenpai~;39049817]Nah, I don't think Tribes will get it. The Tribes hype has been dead for a while now on /v/. They pretty much disregarded the game after all the P2W stuff the devs added. No one really plays that game anymore anyway, right?[/QUOTE]
Not a single item in T:A is P2W and HiRez are supporting it still.
It's still the fastest game out there so what chu sayin'

Most of my experience with the KS general has been scrolling past it on my way to other threads, out of curiosity I decided to check it out a bit more deeply, and yeah, it's pretty terrible. They've ran out of things actually in the game to talk about so it's devolved into nothing but nonsense.
It's like an eternal version of those threads on /a/ about shows like Precure and Milky Holmes where there's little substance in the show to talk about so it turns into people mentioning things about the characters without actually engaging in any sort of discussion about them.
Is it going to be streamed? Sorry if this was already asked.

Yeah, but they're not asses about it. They just chill in their own threads. Most of them are even cool guys, even namefags and tripfags.

Far as I know, plenty of people still play it. The only reason I don't is because it wants to redownload the entire game. Either way, it's still the fastest. Nothing compares to a game which gives you a 'gotta go fast' medal.

They've cooled down a lot now but it hasn't always been like that. Same thing happened with the ponies and furries too even though you rarely see them outside of their boards they used to be everywhere.
[QUOTE=DrPyspy;39046825]but ac3 was actually pretty fun
why is it nominated for worst gameplay
:([/QUOTE]
Well apart from the naval combat it has a shit system that's pretty much exactly press X to win.
Not to mention a very unlikable protagonist. Connor whines pretty much all the time in AC3.
I hope Spec ops wins at least one award, I thought it was a genuinely fantastic game, on the writing side at least.
I also hope Absolution doesn't win anything, even the negative ones. It wasn't a brilliant game, but it wasn't as bad as /v/ makes it out to be
My guess: Katawa Shoujo and Hotline Miami are going to get all the high-ranking spots in all the positive listings.
The other stuff: I don't know. All wildcard stuff.
This might be stupid to ask, but why does /v hate Hitman Absolution so much?
I'd be surprised if anything wins, I hear /v/ hates everything.
I went to /v/ once, half the posts could be summed up as "fuck you", and often included that phrase as well. The other half was talking about how the game in question sucked and was shitty. I'm actually surprised a community with that level of hostility manages to sustain itself.

It didn't happen to be the new DMC game did it?
About Hotline Miami's soundtrack - you have to remember that it's not an original soundtrack. Most if not all of the songs in it were made by independent artists for their own reasons, not for the game. And while the songs are good, I don't really think it deserves the award. It's all "had good taste in music" instead of "composed brilliant music".
It's kinda hard to vote for some things when a bunch of the choices are Japanese games I've never heard of.

The one thing they all hold in common with each other is how much they hate each other for hating things. It's an interesting system.

I didn't know the soundtrack was old tracks used in the game, thought it was an OST
I don't think that really takes away the value, I loved the music in Hotline Miami, it went well with the visuals and gameplay.

I can't bear to read /v/ for more than a few minutes, all that negativity just kills my mood.
What was the delay between voting initation to video release on the last vidya awards?

I'm in a love-hate relationship. On one hand they hate everything almost as much as me, on the other they praise games that really aren't any better than those they hate just because in those they have their animu waifu. Facepunch is a lot more fair and doesn't drool over games with animu just because there is a scantily clad 8 year old girl in it, but FP is a bit too optimistic.
Either way this beats all other awards I've seen (now if it's because this one is good or because all the others were more shit I don't know).
This probably beats all other awards because there's no bullshit involved and no money to make out of them
if they could get world premieres and shit this is the only game awards I'd watch

If that happened, they would probably become the monsters they despised.
tropes vs women followed very VERY closely by the war z for cashgrab award
