Robbed at the game awards

Silent Hill 2 deserved best sound design. I said it.

[Mr. World]

Not really.

true.

the original ost was, well, original, here in this generation is not new (and shouldnt be since its a remake).

the game itself has poor sound design and not a very good use of the music.

so, it shouldnt even have a shot for any award related to the ost or music. it could have a shot at "sound design", but that usually falls into "storytelling and gameplay", both categories in which this game obv falls short and fails, and that without adding the performance issues that wont be solved unless people change their reviews, so maybe they can attract the interest of konami to finally care enough to fix them.

No, it does not deserve any award for just giving buyers disc 1 of soundtracks.

[👁️‍🗨antiparti]

They couldn't judge the game because they couldn't launch it without crashes.

[hahaisfunny]

it's OK
the prize now are secured, no 90% sale for GOTY version. Yay

[Grettir]

Just wanted to create a discussion like this. Watched TGA and was horrified by how they robbed off SH2. SH2 also deserved the best narrative, in my opinion. The TGA is just a parade of advertising and ass-licking for SONY and other corporations. Game of the year obviously should have been Black Myth but the plastic world won.

[Delicia Suprema]

Nop. This woke game doesn't deserve anything.

[Shaelent]

I think Luke Roberts deserved an award the most if anything.

[edwvee]

Silent Hill 2 deserved best stuttering design. I said it.

[GoldInfinit7]

Does it really matter. Astro Bot won, the 100 judges probably voted for it as a joke

A 23 year old story being retold doesn’t deserve best narrative.

Retold, and retold worse, more directly, and with worse pacing.

Short of a few tweaks its still the same narrative in the OG certain versions had some tweaks to scenes. But I agree the game is bloated in areas and has more focus on combat.

Its the same general narrative.

But like many movie adaptations, it misses a lot of the nuance. Especially for a game like SH2, how characters speak and how things are presented is crucial.

So while this does go over the general story, its clear they didnt really get all the details right.

While the awards are the collective opinion of 100 judges, objectively speaking, no way does this game have a better narrative or story then a story rich role playing game that is heavily story focused in greater detail
