NOMINATIONS ARE OPEN! 2017 VIDYA GAEM AWARDS

Nominations are open for the 2017 Sup ForumsGAs.

The nominations site is new, it allows you to suggest your own award titles and to provide feedback on the awards so far - albeit on the strength of the category, not the name. If you don't like the stupid bit of memeology we've chosen for the award name, you'll just have to suggest one yourself.

Only you can stop the Sup ForumsGAs from being shit!

I am the >>>designated

If Sonic Mania doesn't win best soundtrack, Sup Forums will be confirmed to not know shit.

No I am. Here is how the site looks like

>can't just click the game you want to vote for
Fuck writing in every game

>voting for

This is nominations. You don't even have to write in the full name for most of the games since they're already on the list. Even the games you play when mom's not in the room.

Thx filtered

>least worst game
?

np

No video games are objectively good. So you would nominate games that you find to be the least worst of this year.

Nominating something is still voting autist. And my moms not allowed in my room

I'm sure she's not - given how bad in taste your games must be that you're too embarrassed to write them in for an annual Burmese basketweaving ceremony.

I don't even play video games I just like fucking with you kiddies xp

Wow 2007 had plenty good games

Ah, yes. The Reddit awards.

when does nominating ends and voting starts? looking foward to it

Nomination ends Dec 23 at 12:00am. Voting starts beginning of next year.

These awards actually get better every year don't care what the miserly fucks on here say.

The first one was shit but there's been improvement since then.

It's one of the few creative things Sup Forums does anymore, any of the autistics who help with the awards don't be put on by typical Sup Forums cynicism.

We're on Sup Forums, everything needs a negative spin on it.

Wonder Boy: The Dragon's Trap isn't tagged as a pc game

I don't know where I should For Honor in it since it hits so many of them.
Ended up on Plot and Backstory. Since Apollyon

>Wonder Boy: The Dragon's Trap
Sorry about that. Webdev is sleep, I can add entries but only he can edit them once they are submitted. You can nominate it anyway right now, once it is fixed it will include PC and you will not need to nominate it again.

>not voting LawBreakers for best new IP

the reddit awards are here woooo!

I put it in the most shilled award desu

Will they vote more than two times?

I haven't played any game released in 2017.

Budget gamer award looks pretty worthless desu. Redemption in gaming would be good but I can hardly think of anything that redeemed itself instead of deluding expectations.

That's OK, you can also vote in categories for 2007 and 1997. If you didn't play games from either year, "Hate Machine Award" and "Hook, Line, & Stinker" can help. If you're still lost, you're on the wrong board.

Thanks for the feedback. The award categories are still subject to being changed so check back in a few days to see if it stayed or not.

>That's OK, you can also vote in categories for 2007 and 1997.
Alright let me look into it.

...

I think that the awards really need to be trimmed down. One of my biggest problems with these shows is that they are way to long between all the awards and skits.

>worst publisher
>>Good deed

Overlap with other categories and should really be merged with them. Worst Publisher is always gonna go to EA, crimes against gaming is more specific and can cover bullshit like lootboxes, pay to win etc, the reasons someone would vote EA in the first place. Good deed goes hand in hand with best developer/publisher aswell.

>Contrarian
>Dark Souls
>Budget gamer
>Best game nobody played

Are all awards which are either super specific or highly subjective so they will get sparse votes, leading to pretty random picks and wasting time on the show.

>Grammy Award
>"Hello Fellow Posters"
>hook line and stinker

I'm not really a fan of the more, "board culture" related awards. I think this should be a lighthearted game awards with some memes and board culture sprinkled on top, but not necessarily be about board culture.

Were there any good eroge this year? All I can think of is Rance VI, but I think that was last year.

bampu

Thanks for your feedback. In the coming days we'll be reviewing the categories and seeing which ones to keep, add and drop.

I can't suggest you vote for any, but in my opinion PlayHome, Nekojishi, and Muv Luv Alternative were some that were released this year.

I'd totally forgotten about Muv Luv, I'd assumed it was last year, back when all the hype for it was. I guess that's what happens when you kickstart.

I'm struggling coming up with something for Worst Visuals, I think technology has advanced to the point where you have to try hard to make a game look worse than decent-ish

I went for doom on switch

Do I have to sign in through steam for this shit?

There were 3DS games released this year

No, you do not. It hasn't been required to vote or nominate since 2012.

So this was initially conceived, aside from fuck games """journalism""", because certain games tended to sweep the awards in the VGAs. Although in the first few iterations the Sup Forumsgas also fell to the same problem, it got a bit better over time. The same can be said for the VGAs though. Dorito Pope is getting better year-by-year at managing this shit. I don't think there was a game that did a sweep this year, despite there being a lot of great games that came out. Heck, there was no Schick hydrobot this time.

So my question is this, what is even the point anymore, aside from tradition? Not that tradition is bad or not enough.

EVERYONE VOTE PYRA FOR BEST CHARACTER

When is it happening? At the end of this month or next month?

You get to be more than just 10% of the story.

...

...

>not kazuma kiryu or goro majima

no way fag

Literally who

I wrote in Nia

and Kuze

I love Nia too but we should focus on one girl to make sure she actually wins
And Pyra is known. It'll actually make resetera and neogaffers etc. upset when Pyra gets the award

Reminder to propose The Todd Haward: Best Skyrim version

My sides.

That's a trick question. There is no good skyrim.

WHO?

Next month.

Slime Rancher isn't on the game list.

>There is no good skyrim.
the only good skyrims are fallout 4 and skyrim with mods

What the fuck

No refunds.

>Slime Rancher
Added, thanks. If you nominated it already, you won't have to nominate it again.

I demand to talk to your manager.

Yes sir how may I help you?

Why so long? Should've kept the nominations open until Dec 18 and then open up the voting until the end of the year.

Wolfenstein The New Colossus better get worst story, because God damn.

Nominations are open for the same amount of time each year: two weeks.

The voting site design still has to be finished too.

>all these meme categories

>all this accurate categorization*

Might as well just rename the hardest difficulty game to the cuphead award because we already know it'll win

So you are forced to sign in through steam to vote?

Nope. You do not need Steam to nominate or vote. It hasn't been required since 2012.

There is no need to sign in unless you are working behind the scenes on the show.

Sure, nominated for the Deviantart award.

>all those meme awards
>No best direction award

What did he mean by this?

Bump sinxe im on the shitter

this whole thing is reddit.

Time for another award show to become NINTENDOMINATED. Seriously, you just KNOW BOTW or Odyssey are going home with GOTY. There is no competition unless Sup Forums does the unthinkable and goes all in on voting PUBG just to spite us Nintenbros, but even if that were to happen Sup Forums would lose either way because their shitty JRPG or Sonic rehash won't even get a nomination, lol.

The salt this board will become will be eternal.

GOOD LUCK PICKING A WINNER THIS YEAR HAHAHAHAHA

>Zero additions to awards or name changes despite this being going for three days already

>one person runs the award show

These things, they take time.

>no matter what you pick, this will be the FF7 fanboys' time to shine

skipped

>Voting for games should be done before the year is over
Stupid shit like this is why games released towards the end of the year will never appear in the VGAs. Don't you think the Sup ForumsGAs should try to do a better job?

What new games are coming out in these last 3 weeks?

Give me something good for technically impressive

What about 2B's game on high difficulties

Xenoblade 2 came out last week, Tokyo Xanadu eX+ just came out.

IF I DON'T GET A NEW FUNNYKAT SKIT I'LL SHOOT SOMEONE

man i fucked up
I thought it was a vr award...

Nothing comes close to SotN.

People will put Nintendo franchises in the Old Yeller award, but it should be obvious what really deserves it at this point.
Fate/stay night.

Whats it mean by "redemption in gaming?"

>Lawbreakers isn't one of the games on the autofill list
PLEBS
L
E
B
S

What's the "Slayer" in the good character awards a reference to?

Ban Me is the best musical song, fight me fgts

A "Good Deed". It can be for a good game in a series of bad ones, a good action by a company, or a good trend in the industry.

this guy ;)

>Implying any of those game can compete with Diddy Kong Racing

Dont fuck this up Sup Forums

Well I know whats going in the blatant promotion slot

>people this mad BotW won GOTY
>Let's make our OWN award list with blackjack and hookers and Horizon as the GOTY!!!!!!

This is retarded and you all know it

Did you forget the fucking sticky for asscreed already?

We've done this for like 5 years newfag
