When Starfield wins most innovative, that's when you can disregard the rest.

Sifu, TLOU and RDR2 aren’t even from 2023 as well…

What a load of shite.

[–] MeatsOfRage@lemmy.world 0 points 10 months ago (1 children)

TLOU Part 1 was a 2023 release, even though it's just a remake but at least I can let that slide. Even SIFU was a 2023 Steam release so I can let that slide. RDR2 is in a category that specifically built for games before 2023. What I can't let slide is giving it the labor of love award. It hasn't been touched since launch and the online component is a gong-show because of it's bugs and cheaters. Even the singleplayer mode had a huge audio bug that affected many people (including myself) and the only work around was getting some guys script that you have to run before launching the game.

It's completely abandoned by Rockstar and does not deserve to come anywhere close to the "Labor of Love" award.

Yeah, I don't know why RDR2 would be a) nominated in such a category and b) win it. There were a lot of nominations in that category to which 'Labor of love' was much more applicable.
