Starfield won “most innovative” which immediately denigrates and insults literally every other game that received an award.
What an actual fucking joke.
BG3 getting GOTY makes complete sense, I’ve put like 1k hours into the game and every play through has been different and engaging.
The voice actress for aylin and the voice actor for ketheric are simply amazing, but honestly all the VA’s did an amazing job.
As much as I love RDR2 it did not deserve, at all, labour of love.
That and RDR2 make no sense. What did they add to RDR2? It’s just a good game that still exists, they aren’t continuing to work on it.
You are absolutely correct and I amended my comment because as much as I enjoy RDR2, having to navigate their god awful DRM every time I open one of their games is easily one of the most annoying things in gaming. Not to mention I don’t even think R* has done any serious updates to the game since release

1000 hours? Really? BG3 came out 153 days ago, which means you would have spent, on average, 6 and a half hours a day every day since then playing just that game. I’m not saying you’re lying… but I kind of am? (if true, seek help)
Regardless, what you said is true. BG3 offers so many options that each playthrough is so drastically different, the replayability is as close to infinite as any story-based game has gotten IMO. It’s kind of amazing the game works at all, let alone works as well as it does.
I apologize, I inflated my time by 370.1 hours
Not as bad as my rimworld situation:
Do you leave your games idle a lot?
Because a full-time job is around 2000 hours a year.
Technically yes for rimworld cause once you get a larger colony completing anything takes forever because it doesn’t support multi-threading.
It helps that all my friends are gamers and no family in the picture.
I’ve also got my stuff setup in such a way that I can do cardio while I play video games.
Was Ketheric the one voiced by JK Simmons? Maybe I’ve got them mixed up with another character, but I remember being surprised to hear him, followed by incredibly disappointed by how bad his delivery was.
I thought Ketherics delivery was great but maybe we chose different paths? I’ve played a couple of durge runs and several mostly-positive runs where I attempted to turn ketheric to the light, so perhaps I missed the bad parts?
IIRC JK Simmons was Ketheric
That’s fair, I’m sure there were a ton of lines he recorded lol! I’ll have to give it another chance on this next playthrough, as my memory is from months ago at this point. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I think what comes across as bad delivery is intentional uncaring jadedness from Simmons part.
I felt the same way, possibly having been over-hyped by the prospect of hearing a villain voiced by the man who gave us Cave Johnson, and then… meh?
Seeing the behind the scenes footage of all the voice actors in the booth, it definitely feels like he’s trying, so maybe the lines are weird or it’s just hard to play a guy who is both figuratively and literally dead inside?
I definitely agree, Ketheric struggles a lot with delivery. I think, at the very least, that I expected him to “open the trottle” at the end and finally let loose, but he still felt restrained.
