I mean, judging from how BotW and TotK show the Zonai and their history, that ended up in the game eventually. The alien invasion just ended up being benevolent and/or temporary.

Every Zelda game has to up the stakes so now that we’ve travelled 10,000 years in the past, next time we’re gonna travel 100,000 years back to when the Zonai first invade

Make them all teenagers though. And set it in school. King Rhoam can be the principal.

I would definitely unironically enjoy a farcical take on Hyrule which is also a fun and accessible turn-based RPG. Call it Zelda Gaiden RPG and have Zelda be the player character.

That might actually be a better way to have playable Zelda than just swapping her in for Link and the princess suddenly knowing how to use a sword and bombs and whatnot Kinda like how Luigi’s first successful solo outing was a completely different genre to the rest of the “main” games

Thirty seconds is awfully short for an acceptance speech, especially when half of it is eaten up by a translator. Should've been 1-2 minutes. That said, for the love of god, people - when you have a set amount of time to speak, don't go over it! Signed, a live events worker

This is just bad event planning, especially if they want their event to be taken seriously (they don't care). They spent like ten minutes letting Kojima promote a game that isn't even close to existing yet, and gave actual award winners 30 seconds.

For those who have played both TOTK and BG3, do you feel BG3 was more deserving of GOTY? I haven't played BG3 yet. I will soon. But i've watched a lot of videos on it. Reviews, game tips, walkthroughs. I'm intrigued with having choices that profoundly impact the story, characters, and how your game plays out. Having mature writing, with good voice acting. But the top down isometric view doesn't seem very immersive. Neither does looking at a big panel of icons. Yet one could look at a totk video, like "30 tips you didn't know about totk" that Gamespot uploaded, and it blows your mind. And they released 4 of those. I'm not even talking about the crazy builds videos that went viral, but things that were practical and useful, but still mind blowing. I know playing with a mouse and keyboard is ideal, but that means playing at my desk, with a smaller display, and less comfortable chair. That's not the games fault, but still, i'm wondering if all the praise is from people who were previous fans of the franchise, or D&D nerds that love turn based rpg's. The building and crafting in totk could be its own game. Shrines could be its own game, like portal. The eventide type survival challenges could be its own thing. If you get tired of doing something, you could do something else thats almost a different game genre. I'm not seeing anything nearly that dynamic in BG3. But people are saying it revolutionizes the rpg genre. How so? TOTK changed my whole mindset when playing. Using your own creativity and imagination with unlimited possibilities for combat, puzzle solving, and traversal. How does BG3 top that?

ToTK, Alan Wake 2, and Baldur’s Gate 3 were all deserving candidates.

seems like you've made up your mind and your own criteria - 'immersion,' couch play - might not be other people's criteria but it's basically synthesizing a AAA game presentation with giant meticulously designed zones and super expressive high def characters with a wildly deep old school CRPG. imo the strength of a video games as a medium is player choice and reactivity and bg3 has more of that by some order of magnitude in terms of affecting the world and characters whereas however you approach things in totk you're pretty much going to end up in the same place as every other player, give or take 25% map completion. so imo it was always gonna run away with an award from a show that tries to appeal to both the 'cinematic' gaming crowd and the 'hardcore' gaming crowd. i'm only like 40 hours in but on the whole is it a more impressive production than totk, which i loved but you could uncharitably call a souped-up botw? yeah
