Weird how BAFTA has no actually good taste in games
Lego Party? Really? Theres like a billion better party games that released this year.
Also I love that “Best British Game” is a real thing.
One Last Thing, Why did ghost of yotei get best music and not like Clair 33 or Silksong? I honestly feel like silksong should have been represented in at least animation or music.
“Performer in a Leading Role: Jennifer English”
BAFTA wants to honor the “British” in their title so much that even the winner has a British-related name.
Right, what’s all this then??
Palworld should’ve been included, just sayin’
I swear, no man’s sky is ALWAYS in the best evolving game award. Let’s give it to palworld for once, or any other game other then No Mans Sky.
Didn’t No Man’s Sky recently add a monster tamer/battle mode?
I like No mans sky, It deserves some awards once in a while. But it gets annoying when it wins every year. The updates are really cool, but I feel like other games deserve a shot to win.
You pay for your BAFTA’s. No ones actually judging them in a proper or fair way.
The BBC News segment on these awards was literally a promotion for XBOX.
