We all know why Hogwarts Legacy doesn't have not one nomination in any category this year. All this shit to avoid upsetting a small minority.

Good job Neo you deciphered the Matrix.
Decipher a job application for once.
Geoff is weak. I'm going to kick his ass one day.
wonder how easy that'd be to do at TGA. surely after the summer games blunder and last year they're gonna have security all over that stage this time.
Doubt it.
Geoff needs his neck snapped
>We all know why
Yeah. Probably because it's a mediocre game?
it's a solid 8/10
>it's a solid 8/10
Maybe if you only played in the castle and never left it lol.
The castle alone makes it 8/10. Hogsmaede makes it 9/10. It's the best representation of this world ever made.
More like a 6/10. It's an alright game. Nothing to write home about unless you're writing to a harry potter fan.
If I wasn't such a huge HP homosexual I'd rate it lower since the game is generic otherwise.
I genuinely can't wrap my head around how can anyone give this repetitive, unimaginative, static, cut-content extravaganza anything better than a 5/10. The saving grace are the absolutely gorgeous visuals and decent voice acting but that's it.
Do people literally not play anything except ubisoft open-world games or something?
if you read the thread here no one is actually interested in discussing the game or its gameplay or anything that made it worthy of any award nominations, they're all just children who want to play victim and pretend that trannies have full control over the entire industry, what it produces, and what's allowed to be nominated or not.
>better than a 5/10.
Whoa, careful anon. Wouldn't want to be slapped by the /v hates everything meme for pointing out a bad game is bad.
It's because of the trans agenda. The more you say shit like this the more you're allowing trannies to have power over you, the industry and the community.
Troons hating it really shouldn't blind you to the fact that Hogwarts Legacy is some bland open world slop with a boring story and shit progression. Why should I explore this massive world they made when it's populated with boring npcs and 99% of the rewards are just some ugly cosmetics or equipment pieces you'll immediately glamor over with something else. And the spellcasting combo system, while neat, is also so far removed from the setting that nobody gives a SHIT even if you run around Hogwarts blasting Avada Kedavra at everyone.
It's on the better side of mediocre, well-executed but lacking content or meaningful progression. Probably 7/10, 8/10 if you are into this sort of game or the Harry Potter world. Any other year and I would agree, but 2023 was a pretty shit year and it's at least better than Starfield. Should have gotten some noms.
this game sold a shitload of copies and made good money and you're winning you dont also get a badge
You're missing the point.
The point is that the game awards is doing this to take a stand with trans bullies and attackers.
so was starfield ghosted because of the trans agenda?
Not worse than Spidey 2, and yet…
No its entirely because looney troons outrage, majority of the games up there are mediocre shit
if you say so
maybe your troony game just sucks
Troons hate the game thou
if you say so jessica
>get so mad at that wizard game you try to boycott it and fail miserably
cringe of that level will never be forgotten just like how your parents wont forget your real name
>get so mad at that wizard game you try to boycott it and fail miserably
is this you projecting or something?
You're obviously trans
weird projecting
You know that this game has trannies right?
The contents of the game doesn't matter, it's the reaction to the game that matters.
Also not that Anon by the way.
you know that most people only hate you because you're loud and annoying right
>this game has trannies right
No, the devs BTFO troonys and instead of making a troony, just got a man to voice an already woman character...a man with a deep as frick voice, its hilarious.
Same shit CDPR did with CP2077.
tbh senpai idk why they even bother. Why not cater to alcoholics, crackheads, cripples, schizophrenics, spastics, Blacks, homosexuals and people dying of cancer...these are all larger demographics for video game customers that troonys.
Imagine unironically saying shit like this in the face of slop like Spiderman 2 and Alan Wake 2 getting multiple nominations each. That argument doesn't work here.
So it's even worse then those garbage games. Sucks to suck
Pretending to be moronic just to be a contrarian isn't a good look.
How am I moronic for not like these dogshit games exactly?
Explain or admit you have no clue what you're talking about and you're just upset.
Yeah, you're really moronic when you don't even understand the simple point i'm getting at here.
I'm not saying you're moronic for not liking the game, i'm saying you're moronic for missing the point of that other Anon, the point being that mediocre at best games got nominations and that doesn't mean that they're better than Hogwarts, it means the game awards are politically biased.
Both of those are fully playable games with very high quality standards, best looking games of the generation (so far), and refine their goals within each of their franchise respectfully.
To say they are worse than a generic open world slop with half-assed unfinished gimmicks is embarrassing, even for a culture war homosexual like you.
Alan Wake 2 is a good game. Hogwarts is a bad game.
It's better than fricking Spiderman
>mediocre games have never been nominated before
Nd resident evil 4 remake isn't?
Spiderman 2 is worse than mediocre
>Nd resident evil 4 remake isn't?
R4make is a massively better game than Hogwarts. The fact troony controversies make people incapable of perceiving this is worrying.
Spiderman 2 is overrated though yes we agree there.
Not that Anon but compared to the original RE$ remake is just kinda soulless.
RE4*
zelda got nominated tho
It's better than Spooderman 2 and Alan Woke 2
Yeah the game awards known for only having 10/10 nominee selection!
We know it's not there because of troon outrage, nothing more
>t.
I think you upset them.
It was a better game than spiderman 2
FPBP
The game is very fricking mid. Runs like shit despite not looking great, has an AWFUL story, is mostly uninspired outside of the school stuff. It's a solid 6/10 game. People here just demand it be considered more than that because "DA TWANNIEZ!"
I'm not going to call a 6/10 game a 10/10 game of the year because it upsets a boogieman
You see, this just lets me know that you yourself are a troony.
It's funny that all they can do is edit /misc/ memes
the few times they've tried to make original memes they're typically just cringe and never get seen again.
There's a difference between doing something because others control you and doing something to revolt against others.
whatever you need to tell yourself to cope
You know by your logic you're the one letting me control you. I'm the reason why you're still here after all. I'm here because there's actually need for discussion about this topic, discussion you're trying to derail to victimize yourself.
No one cares.
>biggest game of the year
>no one cares
Frick off redditroon
game of the year
Where is the award then?
the real award was trannies watching it consistently stay at the top 3 sellers every month since its release to really drive home how little the wider world cares about them. they'll never be able to forget that one.
Have you not been paying attention? We're saying that the game has been excluded due to the trans agenda either it be out of fear or agreement.
>85%
>isn't that good
How is 85% not good?
You were worried about the awards. Those are are usually given to the best in category you know.
>are are
fricking embarrassing. get your emotions under control before posting again.
>You were worried about the awards
Why shouldn't i be? Why shouldn't i be worried about corruption in the industry like this?
>Those are are usually given to the best in category you know.
OK lets be honest, this isn't always true, just look at how Last of Us 2 won everything in 2020. But the fact that the game wasn't even nominated or acknowledged despite how big it got is very telling to how bad things are behind the scenes.
>How is 85% not good?
It's a shit game, anon. I ain't saying you're not right about - why - it can't be a contender but it doesn't fricking deserve an award in the first place, troony drama or not. Let's not pretend here this is a vaguely good game - the only good thing is the castle atmosphere and it'd be rated worse without a legion of HP fans.
This doesn't answer the question. 85% isn't a bad score so why use that to call it a bad game? It's just bad evidence.
>85% isn't a bad score
It is a bad score. Game scores have experienced the equivalent of grade inflation for a long time now and that's just barely passing grade (and shouldn't even get that on merits). 85% is more what any sane, non-HP person would rate a 70%
Your posts are really the embodiment of pic related.
>Your posts are really the embodiment of pic related
When I see people considering defending an 85% for Hogwarts I feel that's just fine being lumped in there.
So then 90% games arent good either?cause thats a 75%. Good logic anon.
>So then 90% games arent good either?cause thats a 75%
>It must be a linear progression/degradation
Good post anon.
Thats how you played it tho. Dont blame me for the parameters you set
Tears of the Kingdom surpassed it in sales. It's the second biggest game of the year.
I'm glad Geoff fully tilted out the window. He doesn't have to pretend to be normie anymore.
>He's now posting wojaks as an argument
It's like you're a newbie trying to fit in.
About what? The situation involving the trans bullying, harassments, etc has proven to be real months ago.
Recent reviews on Steam
Hogwarts 85%
RE4 97%
BG3 96%
Maybe the game just isn't that good.
>troony games get nominated
>anti-troony games don't
Funny how that works.
>anti-troony game literally has a troony character in it
>troony games don't
really makes you think
It should probably have gotten the nomination over Jedi in action/adventure. Other than that idk.
>caring about awards and reviews when the entire video games media has been screaming WE ARE troony homosexualS for the past decade
Anybody who thinks game reviews have any merit is a zoomer who doesn't know any better or a delusional dudebro who thinks it's still the early 2000s
What do you think we're fighting against? This is part of the problem. How do you expect things to change when the people these games try to appeal to are fricking crazy?
It's just an awful game, sorry troony
You do know that you on the side of the trannies, right?
No matter how much you spew this it won't be true, the game has a troony but it wasn't enough to appease the liberals and their opinion on the game is what counts there
Yeah, that's what i'm saying. Turns out we agree after all and this was a simple misunderstanding.
Really weird too, leftists shlop this franchise but because the writer of the book they never read said a few bad words suddenly everything about it is toxic? just so strange to me
You do know that it's the trannies who're against the game, right?
You tried boycotting the game, Doreen
huh? I called you out for being a troony and now you're having some schizo moment or something?
Remember this week the game will be finally on Nintendo Swtich
They didn’t want trannies rushing the stage in anger if it won.
Fricking trannies, man (male)
probably since trannies have started shooting places up lately
That is correct
The only people who dislike this game are literal trannies
This game should have been nominated, and geoff should have used it as a honeypot to track incels. Would have been glorious.
sorry there isn't a troony game of the year category for you to be nominated
There is, TOTK was nominated for GOTY. Read it and weep virgin.
I dont even know what that troony acronym means sorry serena
>The game that made trannies madder than any other game this year (other than Hogwarts Legacy)
>troony game
?!?
Darktide is also absent from the games awards its not that deep
Pretty much
Have you seriously not seen what happened when the game released?
I remember you troons crying on Ganker saying it was the GOTY and EVERYONE else saying it's troony pandering dogshit
now here's the moment we've all been waiting for.
No, that was the people who're against the trans agenda. You seriously have not noticed how crazy the trannies went? They were bullying people over the game.
Shit game, can't even frick the troony.
forgettable, just like every game released this year.
The game was mid
So was spooderman2. Same cookie cutter open world shit
Whenever the game awards start I check Ganker in hopes that someone will start to joke about the shitness of indie games. Officially or not I'm still GOTYing Hogwarts.
And yet you're siding with the trannies and avoiding evidence that proves you wrong.
>game with Ubisoft-tier gameplay isn’t nominated for goty
>chuddies surprised
Then explain Spiderman 2, Final Fantasy 16, etc.
The left eat their own
The evidence that it's the trannies who hate the game. It doesn't matter that the game has a troony in it, the trannies still hate the game and for that reason people against the trannies defended the game and everyone who played it. How have you not noticed the controversy surrounding the game?
how have you not figured out that vidya awards are meaningless marketing paid for with $$$ and virtue signalling?
It's deeper than that. It's the fact that the industry is siding with the trans activists who bullied, harassed and terrorized hundred if not thousands of people. They're on the wrong side of history yet they either to weak, scared or corrupt to realize that.
"the industry" is only a mind trick you've bought into
Well then what's really going on? What is the industry really? What do they want me to believe and what should i believe?
how does whatever awards you are worrying about effect "the industry"
if a company wins an award, what impact does that actually have?
the answer is none
You misunderstand. Simply winning an award does nothing, but it's the industry bending the knee to the trans activists that's the problem as it'll impact how much power the trannies will have with influencing them.
Not to mention that siding with cyber bullies is just not a good thing in general. Seriously, if these people weren't trannies then they would be called out instead of supported.
vote with your dollar and don't buy things you don't like. it's the only thing you can realistically do to affect the situation that you don't like.
these companies are in the business of making money (like every company), not selling their personal views. pushing identity politics is a calculated move to make money, and is not sincere.
Good thing i'm to broke to even give a penny to anything.
Jokes aside (Although i am fricking broke) i do agree with you but at the same time i also see the value in spreading knowledge to others on just how bad these people are.
The shitstorm was so large it surpassed just Twittergays and even carried over to Ganker
>YouTubers were bullied for playing or sponsoring the game
>Twitchgays were bullied for playing the game
>Trannies were doing damage control on Ganker
>Multiple articles written trying to shit on the game
>the entire Pikamee graduation situation led to /vt/ being raided by trannies for days on end with jannies siding with the raiding homosexuals
>Even the pettiest shit like a translator seething over an author’s comment in a manga because the mangaka mentioned the game
While I enjoyed the game, it did stray into generic open world ubisoft territory, I could understand it getting snubbed in a relatively competitive year. However, Spider-Man and TotK received plenty of nominations, which indicates this is political.
TOTK was always going to get nominations because it’s nintendo
The game doesn't seem great but tons of crappy ubisoft games get nominated each year. They didn't nominate this Harry Potter game because the game is controversial for pretty much no reason by losers on the internet.
It's dumb but everyone already knows this shit is dumb. And the game isn't even great so who cares.
Why shouldn't we care? If we let this slide then it'll only get worse for the industry, the community and by extent us by letting people who have wronged so many innocents getting away with it.
the "awards" are a travesty anyway. cant remember when an actuall good game won any awards
It's insane that the troon outrage help revitalized the Harry Potter ip lmao. Shows how many people are tired of their bullshit
if they didn't make a shitstorm out of it, it probably would have done average numbers
why did trannies attack women over this shit again?
Because JKR said some things that trans activists deemed transphobic and so everyone who supports her must be transphobic too, despite the fact that JKR didn't work on the game and what she said wasn't even that bad.
oh yeah this what she got "cancelled" over btw
tl;dr 'Why is this dog biting my hand, I fed it!'
You guys are being to harsh on her tbh.
I am alright with being harsh on her, I would actually love to hear the opinions she espouses in her big apology letter that amounts to nothing. But the problem is that she says
>EXPERT OPINIONS
agree with her and fully support her and they just can't share them because they might be cancelled. However they don't post their information, nothing comes out and it's always vague
>the expert opinions that agree with trans amount to house of cards self referential psychology and endocrinology "absence of evidence is evidence of absence" style nonsense that amounts to guesswork and every non biased source that actually addresses the science says "we can't prove trans aren't just crazy" but if we say they are as the evidence suggests they'll attack us and get our funding cut or we'll be ousted by the community only able to get funding and support from obviously politically motivated groups seeking a specific outcome, ironically the thing we would be trying to escape
that's not why people don't want to be associated with her, it's her flagrant support of political pundits that are as unhinged as Gankerners
dont you me because you wouldnt be on this website talking anonymously if you didnt agree
That’s literally what started it. Anything else that came afterwards is just a pathetic excuse on your part to justify why you’re so assblasted about the things she said.
I don't care about what her opinions are, I am wondering how the frick she arrived at them.
If I care about what she says I'd go to twitter
Those are basic opinions anon. You can come to the same conclusion just by doing a little thinking.
you are a Black person brain is my opinion
just do a little thinking as a woman should
Imagine being so moronic you see the opinion “sex is real and people’s experiences are shaped by their sex” and you go “HOW THE FRICK DID THIS PERSON MAKE THAT CONCLUSION?”
I don't need to imagine, you can't even name one expert opinion. Meanwhile I can namedrop 1488 expert opinions on the Black person skull that you carry on your head.
You don’t need experts to agree on what is common sense, moron.
the books are boring shit but God bless her for that
In case people dont know - after shitstorm from game she said frick it and is now full anti troony btw she even started to directly fund some anti troony organizations and groups lmfao. Basically she went from now wanting trannies to be in womens bathrooms to full anti troon mode because shitstorm from Hogwarts legacy
if i buy it will she donate more?
I dont know just saying that bunch of twitter trannies seething about video game made her go from having moderate views on trooncels to become full anti troony which is hilarious.
>Trannies go fricking feral and declare her worse than Hitler
>Doesn't care because she has frick you money and they can't do anything to her
>Trannies continue to sperg out non stop
>"lol okay" and proceeds to now donate to anti troony groups
Pretty based
JK Rowling, who is very far left, does not think we should castrate children or rape women in prison. Trannies love both of those activities, so they take great offense to her stance.
>who is very far left
She's a rich British woman anon.
It's all just a fetish to them so i know that they'll feel God's punishment for their terrible lust.
Everyone who bent the knee during the Hogwarts event will be punished as well for doing nothing and siding with evil. I wish i could have brought sense to some of them but i fear it's too late now.
they thought the money was entirely going directly to her and not WB or the fricking studio that made it
What's your problem? Why do you hate God so much? What made you this way?
Didn't the game get nominated for grammy?
Apparently so, don't remember the music at all.
jfc the victim mentality is astonishing, do people want to be oppressed so badly they pretend a game as mediocre and generic as hogwarts legacy is some sort of hidden gem that should've been nominated for anything? there's absolutely nothing outstanding or notable in this game that it does better than any other open world game, it's as basic of an open world game as they get.
if ubisoft made an assassins creed that ever got attacked by trannies for being offensive or some shit you homosexuals would roll over yourselves calling it the GOTY, wouldn't you?
^^ This post is gaslighting 101
how are either of these gaslighting? such meaningless replies if you can't actually engage in the conversation
You only deal in insults, There is no
conversation to engage. You threw mud first, I dont need to be civil with gasligting trans bullies like you.
Frick off back to your discord/reddit group
>You only deal in insults, There is no
>conversation to engage.
oh you're an ESL who probably can't even comprehend half of my post, got it.
also
>back to your discord/reddit group
>said while using reddit spacing
lol
It's not like you're doing much to engage yourself.
refuting an argument is actually engaging, simply calling it "gaslighting" and not discussing any of the points of the argument i'm making isn't engaging. if you cant handle the insults or inflammatory language then i guess Ganker isn't the place for you?
I'm not the guy saying you're gaslighting, all i did was said that you didn't really engage. Although i do agree that yeah, you have engaged to an extent.
You say this as if it's not the trannies with the victim complex who let a game be treated as trans genocide.
no, you moronic fricking Black person, i don't say it like that. any dipshit that cared about the harry potter IP getting a game was absolutely looking for problems to cry and be upset by. none of my post had anything to do with that though, so i didn't mention it.
Again, it's the trannies who were looking for problems to cry about, they're the ones who treated the game like trans genocide, they're the ones who turned it into a problem for them to be offended over.
i don't think you actually read my reply, but i'll try again for you.
trannies crying about it initally was moronic. that isn't relevant to what i'm saying at all though.
i'm saying you have to have a victim mentality to think that a game as generic as hogwarts legacy got robbed from any game award nominations. it's assasains creed tiers of inoffensive and boring gameplay.
Oh, well then you misunderstand us as well. It's not about the game itself, it's that it's clear that the game got no nominations not because of the quality of the game itself but to make a stand with the people who have been so cruel over the game, either it be out of fear or agreement with those people. It'd be as if the Oscars didn't nominate a movie just because the director got cancelled on Twitter.
>It's not about the game itself, it's that it's clear that the game got no nominations not because of the quality of the game itself but to make a stand with the people who have been so cruel over the game, either it be out of fear or agreement with those people
What do you think I misunderstand about this point? I'm clearly arguing against that point by suggesting the game didn't get robbed of nominations because TGA wanted to take a stand, it just wasn't good enough at any particular thing to deserve any nominations.
oh wow first time i posted that image and i just realized it has a fricking tag at the bottom left, who the frick tags a barely edited anime reaction image?
And i'm saying you're wrong and it really was out of the game awards wanting to take a stand. If what you say is true then games such as Final Fantasy 16 and Starfield wouldn't get any nominations as well.
>Oh, well then you misunderstand us as well
So what did I misunderstand? Are you also ESL or something?
>If what you say is true then games such as Final Fantasy 16 and Starfield wouldn't get any nominations as well.
No, they would, because these games are both better at other games then certain things. Final Fantasy 16 has an outstanding music and score, you absolutely can't tell me Hogwarts Legacy does.
Starfields RPG elements, although basic in my opinion, are as far as I understand, just a reinforced/re-iterated version of RPG elements that have been popular and loved in Bethesda games for years.
Can you tell me what categories you think Hogwarts Legacy should've gotten nominated for, if you you geniunely believe this? I'm almost of the belief you didn't even play it at this rate, honestly.
>So what did I misunderstand?
The reason why we have a problem in the first place.
>No, they would, because these games are both better at other games then certain things. Final Fantasy 16 has an outstanding music and score, you absolutely can't tell me Hogwarts Legacy does.
OK but that doesn't explain why it's been nominate for best RPG and best narrative. In fact the game lost money for Square Enix and wasn't really well received by fans.
>Starfields RPG elements, although basic in my opinion, are as far as I understand, just a reinforced/re-iterated version of RPG elements that have been popular and loved in Bethesda games for years.
Starfield is widely considered to be mediocre at best with lame quests and characters. The whole role playing aspect of the game isn't even that great as it's very linear and doesn't even allow the players to join the evil faction.
>Can you tell me what categories you think Hogwarts Legacy should've gotten nominated for, if you you geniunely believe this? I'm almost of the belief you didn't even play it at this rate, honestly.
Best score and music as it has classic music from the Harry Potter franchise.
And best action/adventure as the big world is fun to explore, especially on broom.
And how Hogwarts itself has been created in the game is enough for a best atmosphere nominations if the awards still had that category.
Oh i almost forgot. By the way i also fixed up this image for you.
>The reason why we have a problem in the first place.
???? i'm not trying to make fun of you but are you actually ESL? i didn't misunderstand why we had a problem in the first place, it seems like you just didn't understand my point until i re-explained it.
>OK but that doesn't explain why it's been nominate for best RPG and best narrative.
because it's narrative is one of the most fundamental aspects of the game and the people that liked it really liked it.
also what do you mean it wasn't well received by fans? it got an 81 on metacritic from fans and 87 from reviewers. additionally, SE is actually geniunely known for investing too much into games and then having unreasonable sales expectations, so it doesn't really convince me to tell me it lost money. it was most likely nominated for best RPG as a result of it's great action (i know, sounds dumb) but it was a fantastically designed action game with some of the best boss battles of any action game.
>???? i'm not trying to make fun of you but are you actually ESL? i didn't misunderstand why we had a problem in the first place, it seems like you just didn't understand my point until i re-explained it.
I'm not. I just have a certain way my mind works. I guess it's due to the disorders i got but for some reason my mind can only process information as long as it's very specific.
>also what do you mean it wasn't well received by fans? it got an 81 on metacritic from fans and 87 from reviewers. additionally, SE is actually geniunely known for investing too much into games and then having unreasonable sales expectations, so it doesn't really convince me to tell me it lost money.
Not saying you're wrong but from what i've seen the fan reception was more "Oh yeah, this exists" than anything else.
>it was most likely nominated for best RPG as a result of it's great action (i know, sounds dumb) but it was a fantastically designed action game with some of the best boss battles of any action game.
Yeah that is dumb. If this is the case then it was put into the wrong category and shouldn't have been nominated for best RPG.
>truthfully, i didn't play starfield because it did seem mediocre, so i'm not really sure why it got nominated for best RPG elements, but none of the points you brought up necessarily dismiss my reasoning that i provided - despite how shallow ALL bethesda games have been (like skyrim or FO4), you still see normies lauding them as the best RPGs ever - it's clear that the fundamental RPG stat systems in those games are widely appealing and adored, and if they stuck to that highly successful and enjoyed fundamental approach, then that makes sense.
Yeah, they stuck to it in a way i guess but it has been described as Fallout 4 but worse due to it being watered down. It's like Skyrim in space but less RPG and more FPS.
>Starfield is widely considered to be mediocre at best with lame quests and characters. The whole role playing aspect of the game isn't even that great as it's very linear and doesn't even allow the players to join the evil faction.

>Best score and music as it has classic music from the Harry Potter franchise.
tell me which nominateds game for best score should've been replaced - i'm sorry anon, you're not going to convince me that because it cheats by using classic HP music that it has an OVERALL better score then any of the options nominated.
>And best action/adventure as the big world is fun to explore, especially on broom.
this was cute tho ty anon
"fun to explore" is very vague, but once again, tell me which game it should've replaced? this is one of the most competitive categories for the entire awards, and it really doesn't beat any of these games in action, maybe adventure on some fronts but the games it does beat on adventure it absolutely gets destroyed by on action.
>And how Hogwarts itself has been created in the game is enough for a best atmosphere nominations if the awards still had that category.
well maybe but they dont so i cant really speak to this but i imagine it'd still get mogged by alan wake 2
>tell me which nominateds game for best score should've been replaced - i'm sorry anon, you're not going to convince me that because it cheats by using classic HP music that it has an OVERALL better score then any of the options nominated.

These have the same answer. Alan Wake 2. The game just isn't as special as people make it out to be.
Also, say what you want about action but, we're talking about action adventure, there's already a separate category for just action. Kinda repetitive isn't it?
Also here's the full OST if you're interested.
>well maybe but they dont so i cant really speak to this but i imagine it'd still get mogged by alan wake 2
Well again, that game isn't really that special.
>this was cute tho ty anon
Your welcome. And for what it's worth i did have a good time having this discussion with you.
>for what it's worth i did have a good time having this discussion with you.
im a bit busy so i probably wont reply to the rest of anything before the thread expires but i do appreciate that you were having more of a discussion then most people on this board 🙂
Jesuschrist nobody likes Starfield, let it go
^^^ Once again another gaslighting post. Most likely the same person who wrote this
Anon, these trans activists are cyber bullies and have attacked countless innoce3nt people. How are they not bad? This isn't even about politics, it's about basic right and wrong. Why are you treating it like a political thing?
"trans activists" is an incredibly broad term that doesn't actually specify a group other than people who support trans people, which, would absolutely make it a political topic at that point.
any group of people that specifically targets and harrases "innocent" people are bad < here's the virtue signal you're looking for though
>"trans activists" is an incredibly broad term that doesn't actually specify a group other than people who support trans people, which, would absolutely make it a political topic at that point.
Well that may be political to you but not to me.
>any group of people that specifically targets and harrases "innocent" people are bad < here's the virtue signal you're looking for though
What are you trying to say here? And why put the word innocent in quotations like that? You trying to say they aren't innocent? All they did was play a game.
>specify a group of people by the way in which they identify their gender, a contentious political topic across the west
>uhhh well thats not uhh political to me
? the topic is political, just calling it non-political in your opinion isn't really going to undo that lol
>What are you trying to say here? And why put the word innocent in quotations like that? You trying to say they aren't innocent? All they did was play a game.
trannies who attack people for playing a game are bad. that's what i was saying. no, i was not implying they weren't innoncent.
>? the topic is political, just calling it non-political in your opinion isn't really going to undo that lol
I just don't see how that alone makes this political.
>trannies who attack people for playing a game are bad. that's what i was saying. no, i was not implying they weren't innoncent.
Well OK then, we agree on that.

(You)#
>you already let them have power over you by obsessing and thinking about them constantly
I don't. That's just a baseless assumption you made. Not only that but that's not how letting people have power over you works. They don't have power over me because i rebel against them. They have power over the industry because they control the industry in their favor. There's a difference.
>the right does more to drive people away and into progressive ideology than anything
So you really haven't been noticing how much the trans agenda has been pushing people away from them huh? Not even with the Hogwarts stuff but even in general.
>our side could do alone
So you admit you have a bias in all this. You really just outed yourself as a trans shill.
>because you all come across as mentally unstable, selfish, unhinged, and addicted to being angry
Seriously, have you not seen how the trans activists have acted to those who even just wanted to play the game?
Because it was a generic Ubisoft game with a Harry Potter theme. Get over yourself, gay.
This will forever be remembered as that time Ganker got tricked into buying a mediocre open world game with a literal troony and a culturally diverse Hogwarts with African wizards practicing "superior wandless magic" because it made some literal who homosexuals on Twitter mad.
homosexuals here were literally gifting deluxe editions for weeks lmao ive never seen something like that here before and I lurk for 15 years at least. Christmas or sales giftan stuff is one but gifting fully priced aaa game to btfo trannies was funny as frick
no it will be remembered as the time troons equated buying a videogame to genocide and tried to mass cancel ecelebs for playing it most of whom are leftist
so it really was just another left eating their own moment
mediocre open world game set in a universe where the creator deemed that non-euro wizards are better than euro ones and the non-euro schools are better
>the right does more to drive people away and into progressive ideology
you just know that isn't true, there is no ''right'' at this point its just mentally ill lefties vs the average person because everything to the right of Mao is bad to them
>upsetting a small minority
Jews?
Because it was so painfully average that even the people who spite bought it stopped trying to astroturf it a week or two after release. homosexuals like you acted like it'd be the Great 42%ing and then it was a wet fart that almost immediately fell off and the only reason you mention it now is because of the Game Awards nominees being announced.
The same goes for Starfield.
or maybe because it's a pretty mediocre experience behind all that hype
Alan Wake 2 definitely shouldn't be there, the game couldn't even peak the first, which was already an 8.5/10 game.
>chuds defending harry potter like a bunch of millenial white women
The troony shit obviously hindered the game's rep, but I doubt the work deserved a spot in the Awards as it still linked to one of the dullest franchises in the history of movie franchises. Each episode following the boy wizard and his pals from Hogwarts Academy as they fight assorted villains has been indistinguishable from the others. Aside from the gloomy imagery, the series’ only consistency has been its lack of excitement and ineffective use of special effects, all to make magic unmagical, to make action seem inert.
Perhaps the die was cast when Rowling vetoed the idea of Spielberg directing the series; she made sure the series would never be mistaken for a work of art that meant anything to anybody, just ridiculously profitable cross-promotion for her books. The Harry Potter series might be anti-Christian (or not), but it’s certainly the anti-James Bond series in its refusal of wonder, beauty and excitement. No one wants to face that fact. Now, thankfully, they no longer have to.
>a-at least the books were good though
"No!"
The writing is dreadful; the book was terrible. As I read, I noticed that every time a character went for a walk, the author wrote instead that the character "stretched his legs."
I began marking on the back of an envelope every time that phrase was repeated. I stopped only after I had marked the envelope several dozen times. I was incredulous. Rowling's mind is so governed by cliches and dead metaphors that she has no other style of writing. Later I read a lavish, loving review of Harry Potter by the same Stephen King. He wrote something to the effect of, "If these kids are reading Harry Potter at 11 or 12, then when they get older they will go on to read Stephen King." And he was quite right. He was not being ironic. When you read "Harry Potter" you are, in fact, trained to read Stephen King.
Stop regurgitating Ganker memes. Bloom is an out of touch bullshitter and none of the books talk about stretching legs. They are still shitty books though.
Hello Sirona, I will have two butterbeers please!
Because it sucked?
sure, that
and the fact it's not that good
Am I the only one who finds “don’t engage with your beloved childhood IP or else you hate us” to be a ridiculous sentiment? I’m waiting for trans people to wake up and realize how stupid of a hill this is to die on, but I’ve yet to see it. People like Harry Potter, the game selling a gorillion copies has no baring on what anyone thinks of trans people.
You're far from the only one. Thousands have risen up against the trans bullies. But it really is a damn shame that the people who needed to learn how to stand up the most never did and now they'll forever be on the wrong side of history for it.
Let's be realistic here, it was a fun game, but it didn't have the relevance power of games like Mario, Zelda, Resident Evil, etc.
Games like Baldur Gate and Spider-Man were also SUPER hyped up, think most people forgot about Hogwarts Legacy after MAYBE two weeks? I don't even know if it lasted that long.
Then what about Alan Wake?
Diversity pick
Hogwarts legacy feels like a Ubisoft game, honestly what category would you say it actually excels at?
>what category would you say it actually excels at?
shitposting potential on Gankernel
Sadly that gets no awards
>game doesn't have romance system
>bad game
You don't get to paint a BLM mural in this game so no nom.
Watching some streams from the Switch version and it looks surprisingly playable, I was expecting the very worst.
Are trannies seething over those streams?
dunno, I'm watching some jp streams because I imagine how it is in the west, shame it won't get any spotlight because it really is impressive, an impossible port.
Frick man, i really hate what trannies did and i hate how people bend to their will.
They started back up a few weeks ago, they're also celebrating that HL got shafted by both awards ceremonies right now. Not like it matters anyway since the nominations were decided by the media outlets and not the consumers, and consumers already made their voice heard by making it the best selling game of this year.
When it literally fired its directorial staff, distanced from JK, runs from anything resembling Harry Potter as hard as possible and hides book references as Easter Eggs. Hogsmeade and the fricking train are about the only two things from Harry Potter actually.
And they have a fricking troony character front and center.
The game did literally nothing wrong the troony psychos just want to pick fights to create drama to draw attention.
Frick them.
Geoff could literally address the controversy head on and praise the game for being chill and good within the controversy.
But cancel culture is peak Judaism so remember well. Same shit if you breathe a word of support for Palestine on social media and get fired from Apple.
I hate how people are so afraid of cancel culture nowadays. People dedicate a portion of their lives to walking on eggshells because of how cowardly humans have become in recent years.
It's more of a normie thing.
>this thing has a bad vibe
That's all it takes.
Well then normies are weak and cowards.
I know we basically lost GamerGate, but I don't understand why that has to mean gaming is more pozzed than any other industry.
It's as if GamerGate ended up being a lighthouse for freaks to enter gaming just to punish "chuds"
>I know we basically lost GamerGate
Well then maybe we should try again and try harder next time.
I want to make a game company that remakes 16 and 64 bit era games but 10 times better in the design concept level, with slightly better graphics. Think 32 bit or the 3DS remake style.
I have a StarFox clone concept where you have Mario Sunshine style levels that feature Star Wars Rogue Squadron style missions, but one zone can feature 10 different missions.
Then you have generic, procgen missions that are very short and generous, to do a space turf wars type thing (San Andreas Turf Wars meets Star Fox 2 style world map).
World map sections separated by classic Star Fox style linear maps, but these now become Metroidvanias almost. Still on rails, but MANY more paths.
Linear maps are "earned" by winning turf wars. Linear maps open up new areas and open "Mission" levels.
Mission levels progress the world.
You collect power ups upgrades and so forth for arwings, new vehicles, Great Fox upgrades etc.
You get the idea.
Think 3DS SF64 remake graphics, but this level of detail.
The mission levels are open world and while Super Mario Sunshine style they change in accordance with the mission (Corneria with 5 scenarios), they still have easter eggs and explorability.
You get the idea.
There are so many old games that can be remade in this way.
I want to do a SA style remake but in the 1970s with Detroit, New York and Miami. Smaller cities are DC, New Orleans, Boston and Appalachia.
Train running from Detroit to Miami through redneck ville.
Black space program.
Old Lincolns, El Caminos and muscle cars.
I mean, obvious shit like this.
I don't see what this has to do with GamerGate but my man you are my pal for being based like this. I have similar dreams as well.
I also want to add that a LOT of this game is mid and normie-tier.
HOWEVER, it has done VERY WELL in the long run.
It has a lot of endurance, it still stands up.
It's a bit shallow in ways, but the design has turned out to be very excellent in a basic sense.
Good spell combat system that challenges normies but is addictive to them so long as they master a couple of basics.
Good spell system that is shallow for skilled gamers, but interesting enough to also be addictive.
A world with shallow repetitive, unnecessary content, but which is engaging, well designed, fun, good-looking, and so forth.
And a very "safe" content set, but done with details, care, a bit of brilliance.
It's a bizarre game.
Very very mid, safe and shallow.
But after time passing, better than most of what has come out over the past 3 years which is shocking.
It's sort of a matter of a dev team that is just highly skilled and know how to make good games and know how to balance them to the desired audience.
who cares. game awards has and always will fall victim to recency bias.
Well don't you think it's about time for that to end?
Because it's shit.
Great game but I wouldn't consider it goty worthy what really carries the game is HP world setting enjoyed just traveling around and exploring
U dont think OP said it being GotY worthy, just it is funny it is not nominated for any category.
Its a solid game, with great story, voice acting and world building, its just it upsets troonys.
TotK has GotY anyway
your psyop about awards is meaningless and will be forgotten just as fast, if not faster, than hogwarts legacy itself was. nobody actually believes your narrative about trannies keeping it out of nominations. nobody thinks it should be nominated, let alone that it should win in any category. you are fooling nobody. your little discord raid on Ganker to push for this narrative and make it seem like this is a popular talking point is fooling nobody.
