If Dragon Age II was switched with The Witcher 2 then the list of nominations would make sense.


But really, why is DA2 in there but not The Witcher 2? How the f* does that make sense?


Edit: Oh and LOLOLOLOL, that f*cking ugly duck named L.A. Noir is in "best graphics" list but The Witcher 2 isn't? This is absurd.

Reading the comments on the VGA site is funny. Everyone is asking where the hell TW2 is, lol.

And G4 is pitting TW2 against Dark Souls, which again, is ridiculous. A console exclusive vs. a PC exclusive?? It makes no sense.

At least Dark Souls and Skyrim would be make more sense since they are both open world and are similar in terms of gameplay. Witcher 2 vs DA2 makes more sense.

As many flaws as DA2 had (and it certainly had plenty) , it still had better writing than Skyrim.

Skyrim is a fun game that does some things very well (and much better than DA2).

But still, people treating it like it is Fallout meets Gothic 2 meets Torment is a bit excessive. Bethesda's tin ear for dialogues, bland NPCs and "go to that dungeon and kill/retrieve monsters/stuff" quests are still there.


I do not think DA2 should get credits for writing anymore, because we all know bioware games always have good writing.

I wouldn't even call Dark souls a RPG, it's a good game bu it's really a dungeon crawler with RPG elements.

Doesn't matter if DA2 was nominated, we all know Skyrim will win Image IPB

How did you manage to operate a computer and post something this stupid on the internet?


You just made an even more stupid question.

DA2 wasn't a bad game.

As far as RPGs go it was ok in some parts, and good in others. But unlike Dragon Age: Origins it wasn't a great game. Does it deserve to be nominated for best RPG? No, but the only reason it is nominated is a lack of competition. RPGs are few and far between compared to shooter or action titles.

Skyrim will win.

I watched the VGAs for the first time last year and will never watch them again. Well, atleast not for many years. The host was a joke, like he didn't think he had to take it seriously because it was video games. The show was kind of gimmicky aswell. I'll wait until they take the award ceremony seriously.

As for DAII getting nominated, why not? I find it to be every bit as enjoyable as DAI. There are things I think are better, and things I think are worse (not to mention a few glitches and other hiccups related with the short development time), but overall I enjoy both equally.

You must not watch a lot of awards shows. The host is often supposed to go for the laugh. They are rarely serious affairs.

Who gives a **** about some retarded show that gives winning awards for being the most mainstream ?

Just another marketing tool for the publishers.

the butthurt in this thread shall go on forever.
Continue crying over a pointless award show on mainstream television it amuses me.
FYI it becomes all moot when Skyward Sword is nominated when its not even out yet.
Yeah makes sense to get worked up over this totally.

Oh and if DA2 wins I'm really going to kill everyone at the VGAs. I mean I thought I was mad when Madden won best game of the year one time, but if DA2 wins best RPG? I will just walk up to the nearest living thing a kill it.


If DA2 wins, then I'll lose the little faith I still have in humanity.


Somehow, I think you are exaggerating.

Like I said to Filament (and I think you didn't see the post or just ignored it), I was just joking.

And what if I like hairy dwarven women? Now, is there a problem with short, hairy women?

Slim. I know for a fact that you can do better than that. Simply saying DA2 is better than TW2 is cause for BDFing now? Don't use up all your ammo on the small stuff.

Skyrim was my favourite RPG this year. Then DA2, then Deus Ex: HR. The Witcher 2 doesn't get a spot since I couldn't bring myself to finish it. Overhyped snoozefest.

It's Spike TV.
Last year they nominated Black Ops and not Starcraft. They even announced that Skyrim will be nominated for Goty BEFORE the game even came out......yeah.
Spike TV is more BS than Rick Perry.

err...why I even...
I just ... sometimes... wanna break down and cry. What is this category/genre shifting?
Did industry change the meaning of a RPG?
I know there is evolution that gives birth to a whole new breed of genres and subgenres but RPG is a RPG.
Next time I wake up it will be Modern warfare 5 in RPG category coz there are perks to choose from in multiplayer :/
