It looks like I really need to get off my butt and play Inside!
What does everyone else think of the results? And, do you even care about the BAFTA Game Awards?
-
I'm surprised that Pokemon GO got the award for best mobile game over Sun and Moon, granted it was massive, but it's not particularly good IMO.
-
Looks like the typical anti japan circle jerk to me tbh.

@Musou-Tensei said in BAFTA Game Awards:

A fair few Japanese made and produced games where nominated and even won awards so how is that anti Japan?
-
I'm really astonished how the last guardian beat Battlefield 1 and Doom
-
For the Bafta's, this is a pretty okay list. Usually I laugh at the results.
-
@dramaticslowmo These are pretty laughable, Clash Royale as best esports is a joke. Poikemon Go beating Pokemon Sun & Moon in the same category is too far gone to even be a joke
-
@Sieghardt Judging by the audience award part of that esports one, I don't think we can blame the BAFTAS but the audience.
But I'll agree with the Pokemon Go thing. That one obviously won due to public awareness.
-
Inside winning best narrative when there's no dialogue or text at all is.... confusing. Maybe you could argue it's good at telling a story because it doesn't use normal conventions but yeaaah... bit of a stretch there.
-
@Pedz just for popularity reasons
