I'm still hoping that the Triple I Initiative becomes a bigger thing going forward, if it's happening on an annual basis, as at least some kind of minor thorn to the Game Awards. Didn't seem like it made too many waves though.

I said come in! posted:Its been fun to see gamers, and even a small number of game devs, turn on Keighley. Last year was a wake up call for a lot of people that he is kind of a tool. I know this forum has always known he sucks, but it seems like most people are just now figuring this out. Honestly, from what I've heard, most people in the industry tolerate Keighley at best because he's basically running the two major preview events of the year now.

Wait did Keighley do something new to piss people off last year or is it just the cumulative effect of him wearing people down?

I think it was mostly the thing about how Hideo Kojima got more stage time to talk about his three faces than every winner got cumulatively to accept their awards

Yeah The Game Awards being effectively The Game Trailers, and every non-major award being relegated to a 30sec speed run announcement is probably what rubs people the wrong way the most. You know, amongst the obvious Paid-To-Be-There nominees. Like if you want to have a legitimate award show, fair cop, but it really just is a big song and dance rather than actual industry & gamer nominated awards (But also we're all dumbfucks who just want to see new trailers)

I dont mind new trailers for exciting games, but like last year, there were a bunch of trailers for already existing live service games and mobile titles. Fortnite, Genshin Impact, and Honkai Star Rail all had multiple trailers / ads played that were a few minutes each.

There was also the explicit refusal to even acknowledge the lovely state the industry ended 2023 in with all the layoffs when like 9 years ago he went on a 5 minute tangent about Konami not letting Kojima come over to play

The guy has been a walking billboard for over a decade. The dorito pope memes were from like... 2012?

Yeah, last year was when the balance shifted from “harmless dork who at least publishes a lot of good trailers” to “on the whole this is probably damaging the industry”

Complaining the Keighlys aren't a legitimate award show is kind of absurd. There are no legit award shows, they're all just goofy puffery to make the industry look good and let people see a bunch of celebrities together.

The sentiment is probably that for how many of his own farts the guy huffs, he could like at least try to pretend he's not a shill.

# ? Apr 21, 2024 23:43 |

When he started actively snubbing everybody else in the industry actually receiving those awards in favor of people he's trying to suck up to, like Kojima, it's fair to see the people working in the industry taking their potshots at the guy.

an emotional neil newbon getting shoved off the stage and them rushing through entire categories like best indie with a powerpoint slide so that they could show ads and have keighley's best industry friends jaw on stage for 10+ minutes endeared him to no one award shows are always a lot of industry self-backpatting but the oscars generally don't spend half their runtime showing you upcoming trailers

Vermain posted:i think this is more intended to be like a "i can't get past this elden ring 2 section, alexa take the wheel" deal, since KMMOs with autogrinding options have been a thing for a decade at this point quote:The patent comes with a few ideas for the implementation of this new tech, such as emulating the specific gameplay style of a gamer after learning from a few sections of repetitive gameplay, for example. Another idea is related to anticipated grinding content (AGC), giving the player the chance to turn on this option before these moments of perceived repetitive gameplay start. When playing, gamers would have the option to resume the Auto-Play Mode at any instant or receive a notification after a certain grindy section has been completed. I'm making a joke that they're already planning to make lovely games on purpose to show off their AGC feature, but their patently specifically calls out using the tech to automate grinding in games. Which I assume is a large use case of tool assisted cheating in games, I know I basically do not play survival games without tweaking how much clicking rocks and trees I have to do before the fun building and adventuring parts.
