Having the final video of the year being everybody pushing Abby into an oven was a bit overkill for me

Sure, but let me construct a list that's better than the actual list:

>"I think Dream Daddy is very good. I am not a dating sim person, I know that the writing is not for everyone, it's a very particular style. But I think it is very good. I think it's very funny, I think it's effective in what it does. I think they all feel like real people, I don't think they feel like caricatures in any way. I think there's a lot of heart in that game. Uhm, I think there's a lot of beautiful moments in that game. I also just enjoyed playing it, I think it's an incredibly pleasant game to play, I think it's a lot of fun, I think it's really engaging, I think there are a lot of cool things you can do in it... like there are deaths in that game, which I think is like so silly and weird and fun and like there's a weird secret cult ending in that game. And like I think that stuff is very fun and cool and pushes the genre in a fun cool way. And I also just think it's good, I think the writing is really phenomenal"

It just wouldn't be Giant Bomb GOTY without Brad sticking Destiny in places it doesn't belong. Its almost tradition at this point.
Liam Scott
She's gonna double down and be even more insufferable next year. I unironically can't wait.
Jose Howard
I think it's really good, I think it's really fun, and I think the story is really good and fun.
Justin Rogers
Yesterday after finishing all GOTY deliberations, I sat down on my ass and started remembering what was sad about each game through those day and what I have learned about them.
10) Dread Daddy: You move to new house, you can date Daddies and trans Daddies. You can be Daddy or trans Daddy. You live with your daughter, you date other people. It was really good, story was really fun. There is Vampire character. Nothing else was said about this game, even Vinny's explanation was vague.
9)Tekken 7 - fantastic story for Mishima family, once again they are throwing themselves into Volcano. Ends with Akuma being behind everything. They hated Journalist way of story.
8) Night in the Woods - Alex, Ben and Jeff said game created story too realistic for them. Story made them remember their own young adulthood, which is fine. However there was nothing said about the game itself, just a few moments here and there, as well as main party vaguely.
7)Wolfenstein - had it's own category, were everyone explain how fucking great this game is in story and characters standpoint. Gameplay was really bad, but moments and story moved even me to want play this game.
6)Destiny 2 - I have no idea about that game. They've put it on the list, spoke 5 seconds how good shooting is and that's all. Destiny 1.5 in nutshell.
5)Cuphead - everyone was praising this game for everything. Nothing was said about the story. Nobody convinced me to buy it.
4)Mario, 2)Zelda - same as a cuphead. ALMOST ZERO GIVEN INFORMATION that could persuade me to be invest in Switch and those games.
3)Nier was one of the few that was explain multiple times its story. After Alex explained a lot what's going on I was sure to play it.
1)PUBG - game is still broken, but it's very fun. I understand this game is not for me, but they've put PUBG on first place, explained it was their Mario Maker this year and I understand this.
Not much was explained about games this year, it's disappointment.

they let her cuck them
Elijah Gray
Does she know how racist Cuphead's animation is?
Ryan Foster
She doesn't know anything from before the year 2000. She didn't know who fucking Vanilla Ice was.
Colton Sanders
Their previous GOTYs include Mario Maker and Shadow of Mordor. Honestly Dream Daddy fits in perfectly with this faggotry.

She refuses to listen to honest constructive criticism, which is a shame, because now all I can hope is for her to crack

DREAM DADDY BEAT YAKUZA
Jeremiah Nguyen
She just represents how little most of them have actually played this year, as per usual. They let Dream Daddy win over a ton of other games because they didn't play enough to make good arguments for those games.

It's the only way we can really get them to notice they are circling the drain.

The only way we can save him is to let Giant Bomb burn to the ground.
Justin Stewart
The 10th spot has been the pity spot for years, this is noting new.
Ryder Hall
It's not problematic if it's a game I like
Nathaniel Gomez
Very good, very pleasant.
Logan Powell
Shadow of Mordor came out in 2014, that year was shit
Gabriel Evans
Jeff gave Horizon a 5/5 and didn't even give it a mention in his personal top 10. They play games they just forget about them pretty much instantly.
Jacob Ward
very good
Jace Edwards
I haven't been subscribed in over a year, but I wouldn't unsubscribe now if I still were. This week was full of great GB content.
Mason Sanchez
Good games died for it this year though
Brody Collins
no she got the pity GOTY position they always give away Only difference now is they literally just gave it to her despite nonexisting arguments, when people like dan and austin had to work for it in previous years
Parker Garcia
I'm so tired of giantbomb. >barely anybody is on the same page about anything >"it's fun" is a substitute for real arguments on the objective qualities of the vidya >social politics in videogames constitutes goty material >the objectification of women is game bad design

Dude is gearing up for something...

anyone notice how half or more of the posts in these threads are literal copy-paste from previous threads? at least pastanigger types up something new every time.

Sebastian Fisher
honestly why do the jews ruin everything
Josiah Sanchez
A GotY should be something that you remember. Horizon may have been worth a 5/5 to Jeff at the time, but if he forgets about it by the end of the year then it clearly didn't make a big enough impact on him to be considered for GotY
Jordan Taylor
Well it's becoming a stale topic. It'll probably die in a day or two.
Connor Miller
I was banned after day 1, so I don't care anyway. If you want to boycott, don't pay for premium.

Again, this happens every year, my man. Alien: Isolation died for Jazzpunk in 2014 Bloodborne died for Invisible Inc 2015

where does he stream?

REMINDER: Dream Daddy made the top 10 but Yakuza 0 didn't. A lot of them who played it even said it was awesome. WTF?
Isaac James
But Jeff Bakalar is the best.
Aaron Young
He might have a god damn mental break down and smash his face in to the Blitz '99 cabinet thinking of how bad his life has gotten since Ryan died.
Jordan Anderson
>the objectification of women is game bad design Can't be that big an issue for them, since NieR is in number 3. Higher than any other site list gave it. Higher than it deserves, "objectification" or no "objectification".
Henry Lee

Vinny's arguments for Dream Daddy were shit and vague too. The best argument for the game ironically came from Jeff swooping in and arguing for it. Which felt like him just sick of taking about it and arguing for it so everyone would shut up.
Josiah Gonzalez
this should be higher

Jeff knew which strings to pull for maximum chaos. He should have been way harsher on Zelda, though. I was disappointed it didn't go below 5.
Elijah Miller
I think it's very good, I think it's very fun, I think dream daddy could have been the ice cream, but overall I think it's a really good message and I think it pushes the genre forward.
Adam Bailey
>deliberation video >Abby screeching total fucking bullshit >"it's cohesive"

These memes are usually dumb, but this one subverts expectations by being funny and making us smile or even laugh. How the fuck did you come up with this? I love it.
Noah Flores
All e-celebs are cancer. Quarantine board when?
Nathan King
reminder that wolfenstien 2 got the position it did for the story, not gameplay several times they mention nothing but the bad parts about the gameplay sections they almost all played it on easy they have an entire hour long podcast talking about their favorite story moment
this is what giantbomb has become

Do you know what means to have your own acount on the site and deleting it? You homo erectus human dump.
Dominic Cooper
Anyone else go through a second puberty in your late 20s? I was never that super horny in my teens or early to mid 20s but I'm 27 now and I've been insanely horny for the last year or so. I'm always thinking about sex and fap like 3 times a day and I even look at pics of girls I'm friends with on facebook and fap to them in their beach bikini photos. I'm obsessed with looking at girls tits now as well and this was never something that I cared that much about in my teens or early to mid 20s.
Easton Bailey
It's an important game in these dark times we live in.
Joshua Adams
Dan is the hero. Abby is a typical loud annoying millennial. Dream Daddy is a piece of fucking trash, it's not even a real game. No one wanted to criticize the woman who liked a LGBT game tho. Cuphead ain't that great either. fucking meme games made the list. Yakuza, Persona, Pyre, SteamWorld, Prey, Resident Evil got robbed to placate a mouthy leftie.
Adam Baker
what do you think Jeff does to cope with all of this, every day, day in day out? weed? booze? coke? having sex with his wife on top of his overturned Blitz cabinet?
how does he step into the studio multiple times a week, passing by fan-made images of Ryan Davis, and not legitimately contemplate murder-suicide each and every time?
>he still thinks Giant Bomb staff payroll comes from subscriber income >he hasn't done the very basic maths
Jayden Evans
it was a big issue for one person there guess who
Carson Green
unironically, are you a virgin? same thing happened to me a couple of years ago at 24, my virgin complex came to a head and I was contemplating getting blown by dudes on craigslist just to get any kind of sexual activity at all. then I fucked a couple of fat SJWs and those feelings immediately subsided and haven't reared their head since
Jack Moore
but objectifying gay men is just GREAT WRITING AND SO FUN
Andrew Cox
You guys should be more appreciative of soon to be comedy superstar Abby Russell choosing Giant Bomb as a stepping stone for her career. Boring tech dullards like that Vincent guy could learn a thing or two from her on how to be funny. Yes AND!
