An awards show with a few surprises

Excitement is usually high for the awards ceremony, and this year's event has already triggered plenty of conversations within gaming communities. Bethesda's first new IP in over two decades hasn't secured a Game of the Year nomination, while Finland has managed to make its mark in the gaming world with Alan Wake 2 scoring the most nominations along with Baldur's Gate 3.


There has been some controversy surrounding Dave the Diver's nomination as an indie title. Many have argued that it doesn't qualify as an indie game and while Keighley acknowledges the ambiguity surrounding the label (https://www.destructoid.com/geoff-keighley-explains-why-dave-the-diver-has-been-nominated-as-an-indie-game/), he concludes that it's there because TGA judges decided it's an indie title.


This year's ceremony is set to be an eventful one where CRPGs could make history with Baldur's Gate 3, and Resident Evil 4 could prove that remakes can be just as high quality as new titles.
