[Dimple]

Drink every time Death Stranding is nominated.

 

[Oldmario]

CTRL F "best death stranding game" 0 results, looks like geoff aint getting any chrismas cards from Kojima this year

 

[Deleted member 61469]

Death Stranding in so many categories while Sekiro missing. Ok.

 

[Umbrella Carp]

Drink every time Death Stranding is nominated.

Click to shrink...

Just don't drink everytime Death Stranding wins, you may end up dead.

 

[Gravity Insanity]

I hope Control wins everything it's nominated for.

 

[SunBroDave]

No Star Wars in Best Narrative is ridiculous. I guess the game didn't get into press hands early enough for voting. A shame because Debra Wilson's performance as Cere is straight up the best performance of the year

 

[Vyrance]

Come oooon Disco

 

[Fizie]

Save yourself some time TC and start putting Death Stranding in every category now.

 

[Rynam]

Best Performance:
Ashley Burch as Parvati
Laura Bailey as Kate
Mads as Cliff
Norman Reedus as Sam

Click to shrink...

Its Kait not Kate. if its the Gears character.

 

[TheInfinityGauntlet]

Death Stranding in best narrative come the fuck on Geoff

 

[Dylan]

Remember when Jeff Gerstmann was nominated? If he had gotten up on stage it would have saved the show, and retroactively prevented 9/11.

 

[Fularu]

The 2019 Death Stranding awards

 

[Cyclonesweep]

Death Stranding in best narrative come the fuck on Geoff

Click to shrink...

It'll probably win.

 

[Saucycarpdog]

Can't wait to see what asshat wins best content creator.

 

[Deleted member 56752]

If dmc5 isn't a nominee for goty, show is a wash

 

[Dreamboum]

If there is no Ace Combat for best VR experience and best music I will snap in half

 

[Dphex]

No Star Wars in Best Narrative is ridiculous. I guess the game didn't get into press hands early enough for voting. A shame because Debra Wilson's performance as Cede is straight up the best performance of the year

Star Wars has a really thin narrative. it would be more ridiculous if this would have been nominated for best narrative.

 

[ArmGunar]

Thanks for that thread !

 

[Van Bur3n]

We all saw this coming.

 

[SunBroDave]

Star Wars has a really thin story. it would be more ridiculous if this were nominated for best narrative.

Click to shrink...

I mean you're just wrong

 

[TheInfinityGauntlet]

It'll probably win.

I'm already mad

But Death Stranding is there?

 

[ghostcrew]

Disturbing lack of Outer Wilds so far...

 

[Karlinel]

Drink every time Death Stranding is nominated.

I'm already dead.

 

[Spooksy]

Sayonara Wild Hearts got a nomination!!! I'm so glad. One of my absolute favourites this year.

 

[Raijinto]

FE getting overlooked by 2 expansions for best RPG is rough...

 

[Chivalry]

Best narrative for Outer Worlds and Control? Top kek.

 

[CaviarMeths]

I'm pleasantly shocked that FFXIV is nominated for best RPG. Shadowbringers is the best Final Fantasy release in 20+ years and the game as a whole is one of the best in the entire series.

Too bad it'll lose to Monster Hunter World, but it's nice that it's finally got some mainstream recognition.

 

[IgorL]

Ace Combat 7 not nominated for best soundtrack, sad =(

 

[TubaZef]

Good to see Disco Elysium and Control getting recognition

Outer Wilds got robbed (wonder if someone mistook it for Outer Worlds)

edit: Just saw the GOTY category, Disco Elysium also got robbed

 

[Cordelia]

Death Stranding and Sekiro are going to be last year RDR2 and GoW isn't it.

 

[Deleted member 5621]

lmao at Warframe or PoE not being nominated at "best ongoing" again. At least Overwatch stopped getting nominated.

>Best fighting game
>Jump Force
LMAAAAAOOOOO

 

[Deleted member 4976]

Folks about to get shocked that a game with a plethora of 10s is getting nominated for awards.

Best Performance should easily go to Mads.

Dude looked like he walked out of a damn movie with that performance.

 

[kurahador]

Huh...so Shadowbringers did get nominated. But not for best narrative...smh.

 

[JoDa]

Death Stranding in so many categories while Sekiro missing. Ok.

Click to shrink...

It's on the only category it can possibly be and will most likely win it lol

 

[Terror-Billy]

THE OUTER WORLDS BABY

 

[ClickyCal']

No Sam Witwer?

 

[Van Bur3n]

Sekiro getting a GOTY nom is good enough for me. Surprised Outer Worlds secured it.

 

[Deleted member 4761]

Gears 5 OST robbed hard.
Holy shit.

 

[Oregano]

FE getting overlooked by 2 expansions for best RPG is rough...

Click to shrink...

Jump Force got more nominations than Fire Emblem...

 

[digitalrelic]

So pleased to see CONTROL recognized as a GOTY candidate. Well deserved.

 

[Masagiwa]

Those 6 are some heavy hitters, oof!

 

[Deleted member 56752]

No dmc5 for game of the year. I can not believe it

 

[Lant_War]

Death Stranding!!! Hell yeah

 

[Kalentan]

Man, I feel like Shadowbringers should have been nominated for Game of the Year but I get it if they don't want to let expansions into the list.

Edit: I do feel like: "Best DLC" should be an award though.

 

[MegaSackman]

I approve and my word is definitive! see you on Dec 12th! lol

 

[cartoon_soldier]

Must have taken a lot of courage to only nominate Death Stranding for 3 awards.

 

[Deleted member 2791]

this is why it's so stupid that TGA happens in early december

smash is a 2018 game

 

[Jawbreaker]

Death Stranding sweep. Well-fucking-deserved. Easy game of the generation contender.

 

[TheMrPliskin]

FF XIV getting robbed by not being in best music or best narrative.
