![]() Trust me, your voice is being heard, and developers are listening. Player voices are vital to games’ success just as much as the critics. When asking this question, the answer is yes. Ghost of Tsushima wins the Player’s Voice Award. Heck, have you seen the comment section of the “ Why Exclusivity is Ruining the Future of Gaming“? Plenty of people disagreed with what I said, and that’s perfectly okay. I would also encourage you to have your arguments even if it goes against mine. However, KeenGamer has allowed me to give my opinions and showcase them to you, the audience reading this. From personal experience, I was a regular gamer with no platform at all. It becomes more a job in hindsight, given they have to analyze the game while playing. Believe it or not, critics are simply gamers with a platform. However, to call them out or falsely accuse them of fake or paid reviews is merely wrong. Integrity has to be the strongest suit of any writer on a public platform.Īlso, discrediting critics for this notion is just as flawed. Many reviewers get the early copies of the game and give less than favorable reviews despite this, because, well, that’s what they are supposed to do. Regardless of the copy of the game was given or brought with their own money. The primary job of a critic or reviewer is to give your honest opinion about a game. Yes, reviewers can receive early review copies of the game, but these arrangements do not guarantee a positive review. Well, if you believe that, then you would have to prove evidence against those claims. One popular theory is that the developers pay reviewers to give favorable reviews. But there are things to clear up about critic review “myths” circulating the internet. You don’t have to agree with what anyone says about the game. However, many fans would disagree with this favorable reception, which is fine. Which many reviewers, including ourselves here, gave it a positive reception. When discussing The Last of Us: Part II as a “Game of the Year” contender, it’s mostly due to its critical success. Metacritic Score for The Last of Us: Part 2 stands at a 93, while the user score is a 5.7. However, I would say that despite the narrative, the game was an incredibly well-made game with immersive gameplay, graphics that push the PS4 to its limits, and unforgettable moments. I am not saying I did not like Abby, but I felt the story’s whole structure could have been better. ![]() In my own opinion, I was not a massive fan of the narrative. It’s ultimately up to you and how you interpret the story’s direction. Some would say Abby is an excellent addition to the overall plot of revenge and survival. Some would argue that the narrative favors Abby more than other characters in the story. Fans even went as far as sending death threats to Abby’s voice actor, Laura Bailey. That alone fueled a fire for some fans of the series, crying out against the narrative made by Neil Drunkmann and his team. Yeah, it certainly did not go well for some of the fans. A brand new character kills our lovable protagonist of the first Last of Us game, and now we have to play as the murderer. However, Abby is most hated because, well - she kills Joel. Both have similarities and differences from one another. Does it really deserve Game of the Year?Ībby is a highly debatable character in the world of The Last of Us.Ībby is controversial because, despite being marketed as an Ellie only story, the game diverges into two parts: Ellie’s story and Abby’s story. The game’s critical reception is positive, while the user scores are negative. This is where the divide between critics and player voices happens. Most of those choices involve the new character, Abby. Many believe the story was terrible for some questionable choices. I point these two awards out because this is where things get highly debatable amongst the fans. However, despite its numerous accolades that night, many people disagree, especially for the best narrative and best female performance. You can say a good year for the team at Naughty Dog. ![]() Speaking of story, TLOU2 also earned awards for “Best Narrative” and “Game Direction,” along with four more awards. Depending on how you felt about the story, it would make you upset or kiss your physical copy of the game. However, the show’s most significant award belonged to The Last of Us: Part II. There was plenty of exciting moments to go around. Simultaneously, there were a few big surprises and triumphs, from Among Us winning big to No Man’s Sky comeback win over Fortnite. ![]() As well as the awards are given to developers for all their hard work and labor through this bizarre year. Supposing you weren’t too busy playing Cyberpunk 2077, you may have seen some exciting trailers and premieres. The 2020 Game Awards winners were officially announced last Thursday.
