Feel like I’m the only one surprised by this. I play games quite often, but I’ve never watched the Game Awards. I’m barely even aware that it exists. Never heard anyone in real life mention it.
I'm not interested either. I play games, but I rarely play new releases because they tend to release in such a bad state. So most of the games I play are a year or two old by the time I get to them, and those wouldn't be featured on this year's awards show.
And yeah, I've never heard anyone talk about it. I have coworkers that watch the Super Bowl, World Cup, etc, but nobody watches game awards.
I am barely aware of it, definitely don't know about it until it's in progress. I do like cramming a few trailers though, and wondering whether silksong is real
I didn't even know about it until a year or two ago. but now me and my friends have a tradition of watching it together.
That sounds very wholesome. My friends just talk about their kids or about how we never talk anymore.
