Watching the guy pay his respects to a member of their team that passed on while the production staff have the gall to put on a "Please wrap it up" sign, during the PRINCIPLE MOMENT OF THE SHOW infuriated me. Geoff is not beating the fraud allegations ladies and gentlemen.
They used to be way more lenient with the lengths in earlier years, but last year the kratos guy was kind of a massive tool and ate up the time for everyone else's speeches, so they really cracked down this time.
idk, i think THE GAME AWARD for THE GAME OF THE YEAR during THE GAME AWARDS is something that warrants maybe something longer than a 30 second long speech. even if it is corporate bull
someone in chat was like "but they need to play ads to afford the venue/event" yeah but when the show is 70% ads to the detriment of giving out the AWARDS at an AWARD SHOW, you're not raising funds for an award show, you're raising funds to show ads on a fancy stage
If you don't know, *all* award recipients had a 30 second timer while on stage being played on a teleprompter, after reaching zero a message saying "Please Wrap It Up" is displayed. This includes the Game of the Year award speech, 30 seconds.
kinda egregious that it's only 30 seconds you'd think they be more thankful to any "winner" but i think we do know this is just like, an ad show for premieres and whatever with less respect for people actually involved in creating the games which is kinda sad
I can't believe how badly the recipients were treated by the show this year. Pretty disgraceful behavior to be rushing all these talented people off the stage. You know for a fact that if a 'proper celebrity' like Idris Elba had shown up for his nomination they'd be more than happy to give him an hour to speak.

I took that as the complete opposite, like a begrudging "good game". Starfield was nominated for one award and it had no chance against Baldur's Gate in that category.

Okay I'll try to make this as brief as possible: The performance at 2:37:31 is by the Finnish rock band Poets of the Fall as their in-game band The Old Gods of Asgard. They made that song specifically for the game and, as one chat member pointed out, that segment of the game is a fucking trip. PotF first did music for Max Payne 2 at the request of Sam Lake, the lead creative director at Remedy games. He lent his face as the model for Max Payne in Max Payne 2. The performance was all live. Marko, the lead singer, was a little pitchy during the performance and he's not like that in the original recordings. He has an amazing voice, but the band almost wasn't able to perform until last minute because they had issues with getting their work visas. So they didnt have ample time for dress rehearsals and the like. Olli, the guitarist, can absolutely shred on the guitar. Lastly, that grey-haired man singing the duet on the side of the stage is the voice actor for Alan Wake, and the man dancing in the center is the physical actor for Alan Wake.

It was such a good performance. I really think Vin would get a lot out of the Remedy universe but I'm almost certain he won't get into it. I don't even think you NEED to play Alan Wake 1 (though it'll surely help). There is a universe out there where Vinny plays Alan Wake 1, Control, and Alan Wake 2 but that is not this one. RIP the dirth of twin peaks jokes vinny could make.
@@_SomeThingsILike_ yeah the whole setting and premise is right up his alley. He'd definitely enjoy them. And they do a great job of catching you up to the events of Alan Wake 1 for those uninitiated.
I don't care about The Game Awards, I really don't, but rushing past best score and best indie game is such bad fucking form holy shit. Those are two of the biggest awards they have.
On the off chance Vinny doesn't know about Ironmouse or her issue and sees this; Ironmouse has an auto-immune disorder that keeps her mostly bedridden and sick. Vtubing is the way she's been able to meet people and make a living and afford her expensive medical care. As cool as it is they gave her the award, i think it's a little unfair they made a joke about her being animated instead of saying the real reason she can't be there because there's surely MANY people who don't know her
32:43 The fact that he still remembers Heropon Riki despite not finishing XC amazes me 1:06:03 "I'm not tsundere... she's alright" -Tsundere Vinny 3:00:53 He genuinely got me with that one
The new SEGA games being in development was probably my favorite announcement of the night, just the fact they are finally doing SOMETHING with these beloved franchises that aren’t just Sonic or Yakuza makes me very happy
Same, my Dad’s first gaming console was the original Xbox that came with a free copy of Jet Set Radio Future. He absolutely loves that game. He mentions that they should make a sequel for it every year. It felt special texting him that another one might finally be coming after 20 years.
Yeah but I mean they already brought back a lot of franchises these past few years: Sakura Wars, Super Monkey Ball, Samba de Amigo, Space Channel 5 + allowing indie devs to do Streets of Rage 4 and Alex Kidd DX. It feels like people were so bothered about complaining that SEGA only do Sonic and Yakuza games that they didn't even cared every time they actually try to bring back these franchises, and now some of them like Sakura Wars are back in the dead zone.
Vinny's confusion over how Ironmouse can win the award is odd given his proximity to Limes. Weird that chat pointed out the Gorillaz comparison instead of her.
If it was a non-vtuber, would he have asked "is it the youtube channel who won the award, or the person behind the youtube channel?" What a weird question. He is close friends with several vtubers, and plays games with vtubers often. It almost felt like pandering to the chatters that were weirded out.
The only explanation I can think of is that maybe he thinks that she’s like a full on character 100% detached from an actual personality? Which to be fair I’m pretty sure there’s a lot like that, and I don’t even watch Ironmouse but from what little I’ve gotten through osmosis I know she’s not one of those

I can't believe Kojima got Binty to recite the age old saying "The giant purple crab ate the orange duck in, in the" the commitment to his projects is insane.
I didn't watch the game awards and today I was talking to somebody who did and he was like: "I'm really excited for world of goo 2" which nearly gave me a heart attack
Death Stranding made me feel something. might've been cringe & frustration / disappointment at times, but that's a 6/10 game I'd play 10/10 times. interesting + unique = best.
The thing is I don't know anyone who finished Death Stranding. It's only compelling for a little while due to the novelty/gimmick but there's a game still left afterwards. He needs to have someone manage his more outlandish ideas into something usable
Hot take, but I think plenty of people are capable of coming up with weird ideas, and kojima isn't really one-of-a-kind. He's just lucky people stay true to his vision instead of making things too game-ified and sticking too much to traditional good game design tactics.
@AlterBridgeJericho can't agree at all. I put 90 hours into Death Stranding and it never felt gimmicky, and I never got bored. There's a lot more to it than people who have only watched some footage of deliveries give it credit for. Game was a masterpiece
Vinny is closing in on the "Open mouth reaction streamer" meta. Soon, it'll be open all the way, he'll be holding his head and looking to the bottom right of the screen with an edited picture of Geoff and Kojima crying.
The game awards where everything kinda bleeds together at the end to where I can't recall most of it By the end of it I'm tired, deenergized and demoralized that I just want it to end that I wonder why I watch it every year I'm glad Vinny commentary is there it makes it barrable Also 58:35 someone please make a remake of Vinny's "Oh my god Lois, What the deuce fat man" bit
For real: It just keeps getting more and more bleh each year. Sure, there are moments when I get jolted back to life with a game announcement that interests me, but why not just wait for the trailers after the awards, because that's all I really want to see, anyway. I know I shouldn't have watched it this year but I guess I'm a glutton for punishment.
It’s telling where the industry is headed when almost all of the audience members in the front rows are just old ass execs, there’s celebrity appearances up the wazoo, and the trailers for 90% of the upcoming games barely have any actual gameplay.
Vinny is the only reason I watch the Game Awards anymore. I actually completely forgot it was happening this year until this week's Sunday stream when he responded to a chat member asking him if he was going to stream it.
Sad Pizza Tower didn't win a single award, but hey, they were at least nominated in one of the two categories _meant_ for indies. Also the wait for Silksong continues.
If you think that's ridiculous, People Make Games lost to Ironmouse. This award show is a fucking joke and I'm glad I didn't bother to watch. And I want to be clear I mean no disrespect to Ironmouse, but PMG moved the needle a lot and given that the show is clearly a publicist driven affair, giving the press zero credence remains the norm for the industry. This is not cool, man.
@@KingThrillgore definitely not because ironmouse moved the clock tower compared to PMG. Sorry but pmg aint got crap conpared to ironmouse for the charity works she done.
I’d like to thank Vinny for all his work through the year to make fun content and still show up for streams like this and react to them with silly bits and *Music intensifies*
This really is just The Game A(war)ds. All the time in the world for ads, barely any for awards, and when awards are presented they give the recipients thirty seconds to say their thanks. Even the Oscars allows recipients fifteen seconds more... But nope, gotta make more time for those Hollywood celebrities, right? Atleast Gonzo was fun on stage, I guess.
Not sure if it’s intentional but Johnny picked the perfect frame of Vinny for the thumbnail-he looks just like live-action Alan Wake which is fitting for how out of left field all of AW2’s awards were and Vinny’s surprise at them
Sega unironically carried the 2023 Game Awards! I’m so excited for Crazy Taxi and Jet Set Radio, kinda hoping we can get a new Ristar, Vectorman, Comix Zone, Shining Force, or even Ecco the Dolphin!
Last time Sean Murray was on stage, he over-promised to a point most considered straight up lying and had to spend years fixing his fuck up, all the while him and his team were getting hate emails. And like only now that his reputation's somewhat recovered and he's already playing with fire
It's like inviting a liar back on stage to make another potential lie. Yes, he "redeemed" himself, but it took YEARS for him to actually make the game good. That's after everyone already bought into the lies and paid money for it. Sean should not be allowed back on stage on principal alone. People shouldn't have to pay money and wait years for a complete game. It's creating a horrible trend like Early Access bullshit.
@@milesedgeworth132except he is not an asshole he is a indie dev that was shoved into the spotlight and fucking up everything up along the way and his lies were gonna be in the game but they had to cut alot of it out.
@@mr.ilikespammobileedition592 call me crazy but i think liars who overpromise and then have the gall to take your money anyway, even though they didn't deliver, are actually asshole liars, even if they didn't mean to be (at first)
@@mr.ilikespammobileedition592You can be an indie developer, a liar, and an ahole all at the same time. Also, the team straight up said that what he promised was never once talked about.
I find it funny that Spiderman 2 lost every award that it was in lmfao Also shout out to Snoot game fans voting for Goodbye Volcano high so it can fail live on the game awards
SEGA aren't making these they're just licensing the IPs out, I think. I think it's because they want to start a cinematic universe and this is to drum up interest for that.
Vinny i want you to know that the director of Hi-Fi Rush, John Johanas, included pets in his speech because his own cat was the inspiration for 808. He even has a photo of her perched on his shoulder on his twitter account!
Honestly Visions of Mana was the highlight for me. Game looks gorgeous. Finished Secret of Mana recently and I plan on starting the Trials remake soon.
It was a rough year for all of tech in terms of layoffs, not just game devs. There were 180,000 to 200,000+ people layed off in 2023. Mostly on the beginning of the year.
I got really excited when t'chia won an award because I've been waiting for it for ages and I thought I had missed the release, but it's not even out this year.
ah yes, Binny being confused at the lovesick gun-toting death metal vocalist who is also one of the 4 genetic copies of a dead scientist that became a kaiju
1:18:06 I actually liked the revivals of SoR, GA and Shinobi, the SoR one seems to take place after SoR4 and the new Shinobi's art style reminds me of the Getsu Fuuma Den sequel (Undying Moon). Also, SoR is getting a movie as well from what I heard.
I think it's incredibly shitty how they joked about playing Chris Judge off and then immediately play off the next guy five seconds after he starts talking. "Oh, you're having the most important moment of your career right now, how about you SHUT THE FUCK UP WE GOT ADS TO RUN"
Every year one indie game gets announced that I’m excited about early on (World of Goo 2, Hades 2, etc) and then most of the rest of the show is carried just by Vinny’s commentary
Regarding vinny's day after addendum, i have to disagree with him saying Keighley cares about the industry. He might say that and play lip service to it but his actions and how he puts on his shows definitely dont seem like it to me. Especially after he was shilling making AI movies earlier this year during the strikes. The TGAs just seem like an excuse for him to invite and rub shoulders with hollywood people and fellate Kojima whenever possible. The fact that Gonzo had more time on screen than almost any of the award winners is just kinda disrespectful imo. Im glad GDC and DICE awards exist , they are definitely better at actually showing creators and devs respect.
Loved both the event and the coverage, show was so fun this year, still can't believe they got the AW2 musical on stage! Wish I could've been there live for that, insane moment. Was surprised vinny didn't comment more on the guitar playing/solos
Id like to congratulate the one guy in chat who said that “herald of darkness” sounded worse than imagine dragons. You were bait, but you still managed to make me viscerally angry.
This Game Awards this year was okay, not a lot that was worth being excited for but hey, at least Geoff stepped up security. Vinny being confused about the Fortni- Apex Legends FF7 collab lol. When Last of Us won beset adaption "damn dawg".

On the off chance Vinny doesn't know about Ironmouse or her issue and sees this; Ironmouse has an auto-immune disorder that keeps her mostly bedridden and sick. Vtubing is the way she's been able to meet people and make a living and afford her expensive medical care. As cool as it is they gave her the award, i think it's a little unfair they made a joke about her being animated instead of saying the real reason she can't be there because there's surely MANY people who don't know her
im assuming she asked them to say that rather than announce her situation
Her illness doesn’t mean she had to become a Vtuber, but obviously there’s nothing wrong with that.
Yeah, happy for her that she won an award at least.
@@dei4that's possible, in which case my bad
@@Shadowlily1112 np all good intentions im sure
32:43 The fact that he still remembers Heropon Riki despite not finishing XC amazes me
1:06:03 "I'm not tsundere... she's alright" -Tsundere Vinny
3:00:53 He genuinely got me with that one
1:21:02 If Vinny liked Dragon Ball more he would've noticed Gnorts' older brother Jiren in the trailer.
He's Gnorts' younger brother, actually.
Gnorts is El Hermano?
@@FredericJohnsenNo, he's El Grande Padre
The new SEGA games being in development was probably my favorite announcement of the night, just the fact they are finally doing SOMETHING with these beloved franchises that aren’t just Sonic or Yakuza makes me very happy
same honestly!!! it was such a nice surprise to see golden axe and streets of rage outside of, like, a mobile game or something
Same, my Dad’s first gaming console was the original Xbox that came with a free copy of Jet Set Radio Future. He absolutely loves that game. He mentions that they should make a sequel for it every year. It felt special texting him that another one might finally be coming after 20 years.
Yeah but I mean they already brought back a lot of franchises these past few years: Sakura Wars, Super Monkey Ball, Samba de Amigo, Space Channel 5 + allowing indie devs to do Streets of Rage 4 and Alex Kidd DX.
It feels like people were so bothered about complaining that SEGA only do Sonic and Yakuza games that they didn't even cared every time they actually try to bring back these franchises, and now some of them like Sakura Wars are back in the dead zone.
You have smth against Yakuza franchise ? It's an awesome series come on...
@bentleywittman4617 you're really doing the "so you hate waffles?" Meme?
The Elphelt dlc trailer being Vinny’s first exposure to guilty gear is simultaneously unbelievable and hilarious
Vinny ripping into the discord phone app was cathartic lmao
Vinny's confusion over how Ironmouse can win the award is odd given his proximity to Limes. Weird that chat pointed out the Gorillaz comparison instead of her.
well, chat posted a lot of limesAYAYA
If it was a non-vtuber, would he have asked "is it the youtube channel who won the award, or the person behind the youtube channel?" What a weird question. He is close friends with several vtubers, and plays games with vtubers often. It almost felt like pandering to the chatters that were weirded out.
The only explanation I can think of is that maybe he thinks that she’s like a full on character 100% detached from an actual personality?
Which to be fair I’m pretty sure there’s a lot like that, and I don’t even watch Ironmouse but from what little I’ve gotten through osmosis I know she’s not one of those
we’re getting closer and closer to having Vinny on Speak of the Devil, guys
Someone also asked “you’re friends with Limes?” which is really funny

World of Goo 2 made this cinematic purgatory all worth it. Bawled as soon as those strings kicked in.
Really hope Kermit plays it.
I love that they made the trailer for World of Goo 2 using the open source "Kdenlive" video editor, which has been my daily driver for years.
It really hit me hard with that "it's been 15 years" stuff though, felt the weight of eons on me as soon as that popped up.
i screamed in joy when vinny recognized wog
It was the one light in a sea of suffering
I didn't watch the game awards and today I was talking to somebody who did and he was like: "I'm really excited for world of goo 2" which nearly gave me a heart attack
The Bill Clinton kid sure gave a lot of people jobs this year
3:30:00 I thought it was the Bill Clinton rabbi kid for a few seconds
Oh god I can't imagine watching all four hours on your own
I just had it on while doing housework
Kojima might be making weird games but I feel like we need more big name weird games out there. I want more strand type games.
Death Stranding made me feel something.
might've been cringe & frustration / disappointment at times, but that's a 6/10 game I'd play 10/10 times.
interesting + unique = best.
based
The thing is I don't know anyone who finished Death Stranding. It's only compelling for a little while due to the novelty/gimmick but there's a game still left afterwards. He needs to have someone manage his more outlandish ideas into something usable
Hot take, but I think plenty of people are capable of coming up with weird ideas, and kojima isn't really one-of-a-kind. He's just lucky people stay true to his vision instead of making things too game-ified and sticking too much to traditional good game design tactics.
@AlterBridgeJericho can't agree at all. I put 90 hours into Death Stranding and it never felt gimmicky, and I never got bored. There's a lot more to it than people who have only watched some footage of deliveries give it credit for. Game was a masterpiece
Vinny is closing in on the "Open mouth reaction streamer" meta. Soon, it'll be open all the way, he'll be holding his head and looking to the bottom right of the screen with an edited picture of Geoff and Kojima crying.
If Vinny ever gets that bad I'm going to unsubscribe and only watch quality streamers such as Grey Leno.
Vinny becomes Alex Yiik
@@SuperMarioSwagger IM VINING OUT
WHATS GOING ON????
The game awards where everything kinda bleeds together at the end to where I can't recall most of it
By the end of it I'm tired, deenergized and demoralized that I just want it to end that I wonder why I watch it every year
I'm glad Vinny commentary is there it makes it barrable
Also 58:35 someone please make a remake of Vinny's "Oh my god Lois, What the deuce fat man" bit
Vinny (or the jerm) streaming this event is the only way I'll put up with watching it anymore these days.
For real: It just keeps getting more and more bleh each year. Sure, there are moments when I get jolted back to life with a game announcement that interests me, but why not just wait for the trailers after the awards, because that's all I really want to see, anyway.
I know I shouldn't have watched it this year but I guess I'm a glutton for punishment.
It’s telling where the industry is headed when almost all of the audience members in the front rows are just old ass execs, there’s celebrity appearances up the wazoo, and the trailers for 90% of the upcoming games barely have any actual gameplay.
Vinny is the only reason I watch the Game Awards anymore. I actually completely forgot it was happening this year until this week's Sunday stream when he responded to a chat member asking him if he was going to stream it.
@@dajokahbaby1506 The game awards have always been like that. In fact they used to be worse back in the Spike TV days.
Im back at this video to say that even after months, i get myself repesting the "oh my god lois" song in my head 58:32
Sad Pizza Tower didn't win a single award, but hey, they were at least nominated in one of the two categories _meant_ for indies.
Also the wait for Silksong continues.
If you think that's ridiculous, People Make Games lost to Ironmouse. This award show is a fucking joke and I'm glad I didn't bother to watch.
And I want to be clear I mean no disrespect to Ironmouse, but PMG moved the needle a lot and given that the show is clearly a publicist driven affair, giving the press zero credence remains the norm for the industry. This is not cool, man.
People make games is pretty smol tho (comparatively), I'm surprised they were even nominated
@@tahunuva4254 Me too, it was definitely awesome to see them nominated; love their videos, especially the VRChat one
@@KingThrillgore definitely not because ironmouse moved the clock tower compared to PMG. Sorry but pmg aint got crap conpared to ironmouse for the charity works she done.
@@doubled99218Charity doesn't equal good game, idiot.
No pizza tower W
It’s over
It’s peppinover
MARONE! It’s so fookin OVA….
Billions must eat grilled cheese off da radiator
The "Geoff Keighley sucks off Kojima and Druckmann live on stage" awards just get lamer and lamer every year, I swear.
I’d like to thank Vinny for all his work through the year to make fun content and still show up for streams like this and react to them with silly bits and
*Music intensifies*
This really is just The Game A(war)ds. All the time in the world for ads, barely any for awards, and when awards are presented they give the recipients thirty seconds to say their thanks. Even the Oscars allows recipients fifteen seconds more...
But nope, gotta make more time for those Hollywood celebrities, right?
Atleast Gonzo was fun on stage, I guess.
Vinny, there's a chirp in your soul
Can't believe Vinny will finally be in a Kojima game
HOLY SHIT JOHNNY!
*Did you really just timestamp an entire 4 hour long video!?*
Not sure if it’s intentional but Johnny picked the perfect frame of Vinny for the thumbnail-he looks just like live-action Alan Wake which is fitting for how out of left field all of AW2’s awards were and Vinny’s surprise at them
Sega unironically carried the 2023 Game Awards! I’m so excited for Crazy Taxi and Jet Set Radio, kinda hoping we can get a new Ristar, Vectorman, Comix Zone, Shining Force, or even Ecco the Dolphin!
Why was vinny so on-edge when the Sean Murray thing happened? He sounded genuinely miffed
Last time Sean Murray was on stage, he over-promised to a point most considered straight up lying and had to spend years fixing his fuck up, all the while him and his team were getting hate emails. And like only now that his reputation's somewhat recovered and he's already playing with fire
It's like inviting a liar back on stage to make another potential lie. Yes, he "redeemed" himself, but it took YEARS for him to actually make the game good. That's after everyone already bought into the lies and paid money for it. Sean should not be allowed back on stage on principal alone.
People shouldn't have to pay money and wait years for a complete game. It's creating a horrible trend like Early Access bullshit.
@@milesedgeworth132except he is not an asshole he is a indie dev that was shoved into the spotlight and fucking up everything up along the way and his lies were gonna be in the game but they had to cut alot of it out.
@@mr.ilikespammobileedition592 call me crazy but i think liars who overpromise and then have the gall to take your money anyway, even though they didn't deliver, are actually asshole liars, even if they didn't mean to be (at first)
@@mr.ilikespammobileedition592You can be an indie developer, a liar, and an ahole all at the same time. Also, the team straight up said that what he promised was never once talked about.
I find it funny that Spiderman 2 lost every award that it was in lmfao
Also shout out to Snoot game fans voting for Goodbye Volcano high so it can fail live on the game awards
Damn if the only reason GVH was nominated just to be embarassed live on stream, that would be hilarious.
Cool, another year of the ad awards
I'm so happy that Vinny won Gaming Content Creator of the Year. Well deserved.
great to see sega finally woke up from their coma
I guess they were running out of Sonic games to shit out
SEGA aren't making these they're just licensing the IPs out, I think. I think it's because they want to start a cinematic universe and this is to drum up interest for that.
Vinny i want you to know that the director of Hi-Fi Rush, John Johanas, included pets in his speech because his own cat was the inspiration for 808. He even has a photo of her perched on his shoulder on his twitter account!
Honestly Visions of Mana was the highlight for me. Game looks gorgeous. Finished Secret of Mana recently and I plan on starting the Trials remake soon.
*Twials
the Kermit segment made it all worth it
It was a rough year for all of tech in terms of layoffs, not just game devs. There were 180,000 to 200,000+ people layed off in 2023. Mostly on the beginning of the year.
Where is everybody going?
*Bingo?*
"It's not shit" - best Starfield review ever.
1:13:47 Gonzo segment
2:50:24 Kermit Cam
Also Vinny shouldve had GB camera for this instead of regular facecam.
Thank you for your wisdom, red comet person
I got really excited when t'chia won an award because I've been waiting for it for ages and I thought I had missed the release, but it's not even out this year.
Vinny’s confusion at Guilty Gear is hilarious. Elphelt is an absolute menace in matches.
Given Vinny's love for rock music, I think he'd find the franchise very interesting, but fighting games and binyot do not mix well
GGST is much more experimental metal, really not any Genre vinny has ever vibed with.
Also Vinny couldn't learn a fighting game to save his life lmao
ah yes, Binny being confused at the lovesick gun-toting death metal vocalist who is also one of the 4 genetic copies of a dead scientist that became a kaiju
Tbh,the only thing i got excited about was the GOW dlc,the JP survival game and the guilty gear dlc 🫥.
And an absolute downgrade to her original design.
Welcome everybody to the annual Hideo Kojima circlejerk awards
I'm so happy vinny got dropped into guilty gear with Elphelt of all things. The pure confusion was perfect
Those lyrics man... that Alan Wake musical thing was strait up directed by Charlie from its always sunny.
It might not be a memorable Game Awards (as usual), but as long as Flute Guy's still there, all is good.
2:13:18 English major btw
Lies of P honestly deserved the art direction award
28:25 congrats vin
Next year you and jerma need to fuse to win again
Virma is an extremely powerful and mysterious entity
FUUUU-SSSSIIOOOONNN, [fart with reverb]!
You know, I sensed some heavy 'body language' between Gnorts and Kermit.
2:23:00 he talked over it, I was hoping to get Vinny’s response
1:18:06 I actually liked the revivals of SoR, GA and Shinobi, the SoR one seems to take place after SoR4 and the new Shinobi's art style reminds me of the Getsu Fuuma Den sequel (Undying Moon). Also, SoR is getting a movie as well from what I heard.
As soon as Heilung came on I knew Vinny would be vibing with it, love that band
Vinny don't you fucking dare summon Metroid Prime 4tnite into existence
I think it's incredibly shitty how they joked about playing Chris Judge off and then immediately play off the next guy five seconds after he starts talking.
"Oh, you're having the most important moment of your career right now, how about you SHUT THE FUCK UP WE GOT ADS TO RUN"
The SEGA trailer was genuinely exciting to me
Every year one indie game gets announced that I’m excited about early on (World of Goo 2, Hades 2, etc) and then most of the rest of the show is carried just by Vinny’s commentary
Only the most insane gamers get put in these gamer wards
They should have nominated Henya, Asmongold, and DSP then
@@KingThrillgore Don't confuse genius with madness
.. Not saying that kettle's a genius, just an unrelated thing to keep in mind
@@tahunuva4254 For a genius kettle she's about as dense as a star. Exhibit A: not know what Mel does on her "other" streams
Well at least we have World of Goo 2.
All 12 2023 WoG fans are satisfied
1:38:55 Vinny has gotten so good at voicing Snake I honestly can't tell the difference between him and Hayter anymore
can’t believe pink vinny won creator of the year award
I know vinny thinks hes awkward on cam but your hijinks genuinely adds to the whole thing
That Kubrick Stare bit had me in tears
A ton of Japanese and futuristic games. Not games made in Japan but games based in or on Japan
Project Mugen looks kinda neat
Regarding vinny's day after addendum, i have to disagree with him saying Keighley cares about the industry. He might say that and play lip service to it but his actions and how he puts on his shows definitely dont seem like it to me. Especially after he was shilling making AI movies earlier this year during the strikes.
The TGAs just seem like an excuse for him to invite and rub shoulders with hollywood people and fellate Kojima whenever possible. The fact that Gonzo had more time on screen than almost any of the award winners is just kinda disrespectful imo.
Im glad GDC and DICE awards exist , they are definitely better at actually showing creators and devs respect.
gdc and dice?
Loved both the event and the coverage, show was so fun this year, still can't believe they got the AW2 musical on stage! Wish I could've been there live for that, insane moment. Was surprised vinny didn't comment more on the guitar playing/solos
Id like to congratulate the one guy in chat who said that “herald of darkness” sounded worse than imagine dragons. You were bait, but you still managed to make me viscerally angry.
Who wins?
Baldurs Gate 3, Possible Game of The Decade,
or Geoff Keighley's borderline creepy obsession with deifying Hideous Kojumbles?
World of goo 2 got me pegging out of my gourd so hard I’m gooing
😨
absolutely rancid string of words, great job
The alan wake musical was so silly, I love it. that was actually fun and woke me up after 148 samey lookng games in a row.
im cryin from your matthew mconahay impression I knew you were gonna do it and it killed me
This Game Awards this year was okay, not a lot that was worth being excited for but hey, at least Geoff stepped up security.
Vinny being confused about the Fortni- Apex Legends FF7 collab lol.
When Last of Us won beset adaption "damn dawg".
