Chapter 446: Game of the year, well-deserved!
After Chen Mo said the words “thank you to the country”, the designers in the audience held back their laughter.
“I’m dying of laughter. I can see that Chen Mo is really out of words!”
“I’ve been holding it in for so long, yet I’m still thanking the country. Hahahahaha!”
“You don’t have enough awareness. Shouldn’t the country be the first to thank you? If this were in the sports industry, he would have been ordered to write an examination!”
“That’s right. Maybe we’ll even have to take back the award!”
The designers in the audience and the live stream users were all making fun of Chen Mo, mainly because he had won too many awards this year.
Many of the designers sitting next to Chen Mo peeked at his seat. Chen Mo was holding a trophy on stage, and there were five more in his seat. There was almost no s.p.a.ce left.
Fortunately, although the trophies were exquisitely made, they were not big. They were about the size of a mineral water bottle, just slightly bigger.
If it was the same size as the League of Legends Championship trophy, Chen Mo would have to find a moving company to move it back.
Chen Mo returned to his seat and placed the six trophies on the ground before sitting down.
After the first four major awards, the last and biggest award, the best game of the year, was almost out.
Everyone was looking at the stage, waiting to see who would win the award.
The host went on stage.
“This year has been a great year for the domestic games industry. We’ve already seen the best games of the year in the previous awards. It can be said to be a wonderful year with hundreds of flowers blooming.
“So, who will win this year’s game of the year? Please look at the big screen, next up are the games that have been nominated for this year’s Video Game Awards. ”
The big screen began to play the highlights of each candidate game.
Under the background of the co-existence of the immortal world, Devil World, and human world, countless people from the Xiuzhen world were riding on their flying swords, flying across the sky in unison. In the dark and chaotic demonic realm, Immortals with fluttering clothes were waving their flying swords to kill demons and devils.
……
In Chang ‘an under the cover of night, an a.s.sa.s.sin in black was stepping on the tiles of the eaves and shuttling quickly. He had a Tang sword on his back and a hidden weapon in his hand. He hung upside down from the beam of the house and observed his prey.
……
The Pharaoh Eagle flew out of the clouds and headed toward the battlefield in the distance. The angels extended a helping hand to the children in the ruins; Sledgehammer raised his shield and blocked the Molotov c.o.c.ktail …
Every time an exciting clip was played, the name of the game would be indicated on the big screen, and the background music of the game would also be played in the stadium.
Even though there were two other games that were nominated, everyone knew that they were just there to play a supporting role and were not compet.i.tive at all. The real game of the year would be born from these three games.
The magnificent Tang.
‘Three realms’.
“Overwatch.”
On all the major livestreaming platforms, countless bullet comments were flooding the screen.
Many players had been paying attention to the awards ceremony in the past years, but they had never had the chance to witness it live. This was the first live broadcast, and many people were guessing who the annual award would go to.
“The magnificent Tang! It has to be the great Tang!”
“‘Three realms’ isn’t bad either, so why isn’t it ‘three realms’?”
“Online gaming sc.u.m, get lost! This is an award ceremony! It’s obvious that ‘the magnificent Tang’ has completely surpa.s.sed your ‘three realms’ in terms of story, art, and game. ”
“The two of you, stop fighting. In my opinion, this award should go to’ the Overwatch ‘!”
“Impossible! If ‘the magnificent Tang’ doesn’t win an award, it won’t be tolerated by the heavens!”
The applause gradually died down, and the chairman of the game Committee, Zhang Zhongxiang, came on stage with the annual game trophy in his left hand and the list of winners in his right.
“I hereby announce that the winner of the best game of the year is Yingying–
He paused, then looked at the designers in the audience.””Overwatch, Chen Mo!”
The venue instantly erupted into warm applause and cheers!
Chen Mo stood up and walked up to the stage as the cla.s.sic background music played.
“As expected! It’s “the Overwatch”!”
“It’s a pity that it’s not the Grand Tang?”
“The game quality of the magnificent Tang could have been comparable to this year’s game in any other year! He didn’t win any of the two biggest awards this year, best VR game and game of the year?”
“Sigh, it can’t be helped. Strictly speaking,’the magnificent Tang’ isn’t perfect and has its flaws. It’s expected that this award will be given to’ the Overwatch ‘.”
“I can only say that it’s a pity. It’s such a pity that ‘the magnificent Tang’ and ‘the Overwatch’ are clashing.”
“Chen Mo really got a Grand Slam this year. He’s got so many awards that his hands are tired!”
The designers at the scene were clapping and discussing.
Most of the video game designers present could accept that Overwatch had won the Game of the Year award. It was within their expectations.
Even though there was a certain level of suspense between the two games, in the eyes of these professional video game designers, it was clear that Overwatch was still slightly better in every aspect.
Chen Mo went on stage, took the trophy from Zhang Zhongxiang, and then walked to the microphone.
“Thank you, everyone. Once again, I would like to thank every player who likes the Overwatch.”
“To use a phrase from Overwatch: This world needs more heroes, and this world is worth fighting for!”
“This is also a concept that I hope to convey to everyone through ‘the Overwatch’. Perhaps this world is not perfect, but we should all work hard to make it a better place. Each of us can become the heroes of this world.”
“As for game of the year, everyone might have different opinions. I’ve always felt that the best game exists in everyone’s hearts, and as long as the designer puts in the effort to create a game, it’s a good game.”
“Overwatch is my first game of the year, but it won’t be the last. In the future, Thunderbolt Entertainment’s entire R & D team will make even more fun games for everyone! Thank you!”
The venue once again burst into enthusiastic applause and cheers that lasted for a long time!
Chen Mo’s acceptance speech was so good that it was impeccable. ‘The Overwatch’ had indeed conveyed such a concept: All the countries and regions in the world coexisted in peace. Although the world was not perfect, and the heroes faced countless misunderstandings, everyone who wanted to make the world a better place was a worthy hero.
Chen Mo also gave his own answer to the controversy regarding game of the year,”The best game existed in everyone’s heart, and as long as the designer put in the effort to create a game, it was a good game!
