ARE YOU NOT READY FOR THE 10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY??
I'll admit, the lesser dog thing made me laugh pretty fucking hard.
cringey shit when it started and its not any better now
No more shitty tranny rants that go on for minutes without any joke
Keep mixing the skits into the awards, that was great
Get a real japanese being to present the /a/ award next year
>>332211774
Best VGAs to date. Fuck the negative assholes.
How are you going to top it for the 5th anniversary? Will there be unironic preshow music next time?
>>332211774
Watched it with the wife, wasn't our favorite but I feel that has more to do with the games that came out last year. We liked the VHS 90's asethitic. The preshow mix was awful, I actually listen to the older mixes in the car when driving, so that bummed me out.
I liked the skits being mixed into the show. Overall pretty good, not the best. Looking forward to next year's.
I want to fuck funnykat
>>332213419
How did the Bernie Sanders thing go for you, anon?
>Witcher 3, Bloodborne, and MGS5 cocksucking: the show
/v/ really just proves how shit its taste is when these /v/GAs happen. For all the board's talk about not being like game review sites, the board has exactly the same taste.
>>332211774
It was cancer as expected.
It was fine, but too much rigging.
Just saw it with my caretaker. It was alright for the most part. Undertale could have won more awards though.
>>332213609
Did you see the hands? Its a man(childe)
>>332213624
What the fuck are you talking about?
>>332213914
>Just saw it with my caretaker.
Why do you have a caretaker, dear anon?
Completely unremarkable
>>332212486
Well this was supposed to be the 5th year anniversary. Obviously only 4 years were worked on but there are 5 shows total spanning games from 5 years.
Talking about the preshow is quite too early. I wanted to hear something more fundamental. For example splitting the team into two teams with first team working only on positive and the other on negative awards. This way the people who want only the negative awards may be pleased without making the event overall just that. The parts would have to be streamed separately. Something crazy you know.
Favorite skits?

>>332216507
Spoiler it you sick fuck! This is a worksafe board!
whenever anime is mentioned all the normalfag redditors come out of the woodwork complaining about weeaboos, it's a good honeypot
The misogyny and doom skit will go down as the worst skit of all time.
>>332211774
>Video not available
Why?
It was generally good but some skits went on for too long, the Doom one in particular was painful. Also the pres-how remix was insulting.
>>332216923
Those were too fucking long. Kinda disappointed there was nothing similar to 24 MGSV trailer from previous year.
My only real complaints were that funnykat skit and the tranny rant lasting a little too long. They were entertaining, but wound up being a drain on my patience after they extended past 5 minutes each.
I had a good time watching, and there was a good sense of humor about most of the presentation. Waiting on next year's disappointment eagerly.
>>332211774
It was a great show.
>/v/ didn't win Worst Fanbase.
literally the only rigged award.but seriously, /v/ really should have won.
>>332211774
>Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon only made it into best RPG at 7th place, not winning anything or even making it into the top 5 of anything
>Bloodborne won best aesthetics when both Ori and Splatoon look better
>Undertale won worst game award and got high in pretentiousness
>Alphys voted worst character even though she's literally the most well written character in Undertale
>Metal Gear Solid V won best trailer even though Persona 5's and FFVII: Remake's were better, and Xenoblade Chronicles X didn't receive a nomination there despite being the best trailer of all
>Dark Souls 3 and Deus Ex were the most anticipated upcoming games even though Nier Automata exists
>Witcher 3 and Xenoblade Chronicles X actually got nominations for worst graphics despite looking gorgeous
>people actually think Undertale, Bloodborne, and The Witcher 3 were blatantly promoted
>Papyrus got a nomination for best representation of men even though he's the worst written character in Undertale
>Marie was ranked higher than Callie for best character when Callie is clearly best girl
I hate you all.
Senran should have beaten Hunniepop, everything else looked about right to me or I didn't really care.
>>332217631
To be fair, those were in one of the closest awards that were there. They were neck and neck for votes. Huniepop won fair and square in an honest competition, even if I preferred Senran.
>>332211774
Bumper Balls was the only good part
>>332217580
Keep crying, Transformers winning made it all worth it.
>>332217631
>Best Reprensentation of Women
Senran is a male fantasy filled with one joke characters. Huniepop is how real life women act. That's why it won.
>>332217863
>Huniepop is how real life women act
>>332211774
dat God Eater
>>332217048
Are you in Germany?
That fucking intro to the Jet Set award was pretty good.
The anime segments were good with EVEANGELION being the master skit.
Good pacing.
Worst fanbase award was funny.
>>332211774
Could I get the tracklist or youtube links for the rap music in the first half hour of the pre-show? It had some good stuff and remixes.
Just finished watching this with my wife's son and we agreed on the /v/ga ranking
2012 > 2015 = 2011 > 2013 >>>> 2014
Best thing was the sweep votes, felt like it gave more relevance to the winners and rankings
>>332218148
This.
>>332218204
Also good aesthetics. The 90's theme made me almost nostalgic.
>>332211774
I think this is probably better watched live with chat.
It's painful watching solo, because there's nothing to distract you from the overly long skits. Just about every segment would benefit from cutting off between half or a quarter earlier.
>>332218354
>live chat
>meme after meme after meme after..
yea nah.
>>332217967
>A streamlined game for the sake of gameplay and story segregation invalidates how the characters are written
Either way, you make a poor case saying Senran offers a better depiction of women.
>>332211774
>If you have any ideas about the execution of future events
Stop doing these shitty meaningless award shows and pretending you speak for an entire board.
>>332218354
How about instead, when they air the livestream, they record the chat, and upload a version of the /v/GA's with chat visible?
>>332218354
It may be possible to add actual /v/ posts as they happened to the video. It may feel like a slightly slower twitch chat with no spam.
>>332218597
The board spoke for itself though
>>332211774
Are these threads only created by people affiliated with the production?
>>332218632
>>332218640
I guess either of these could work. But what do I know? Forward your ideas to the VGA guy.
>>332218667
A small subsection of people who voted on this shit is not the entire board.
Do you know how few people actually give a shit about this compared to the amount of people who use /v/?
>>332218693
Most are. You can be sure someone's keeping an eye.
>>332218148
This, also the /a/ward was quite clever.
>>332218846
So its like how a significant portion of the US population doesn't vote but they get a President that represents them anyways.
>>332218846
Does it somehow not make the people who give a shit not /v/?
>>332218971
Stupid analogy.
>>332211774
I liked it
>>332218971
A system of governance is hardly comparable to a handful of fags pushing their shitty award show year after year.
>>332218836
On mobile, if someone else could that would be swell.
>>332219031
>Stupid analogy.
except it's not
Can someone explain sweep points to me?
>>332218846
Maybe you should have voted then
>>332211774
it was really fucking good and I mean it
you guys are making something special here and the fucktards here don't appreciate it
you guys hold the undisputable best video game award on the planet, from the democratic nomination process, to the voting system, to the sweep points this year, to the pacing of the presentation that was refined over the years, to the art style and sountrack of the show which are always top notch, to the questionable humor
there's nothing better than it, I really don't understand the people that complain about it, they either haven't watched a single one after the first or they are just pissed their niche ass game didn't win game of the year
here are my suggestions:
1. cut your ties with /v/ once and for all, make the award show open to the entire internet and I guarantee you'll be accepted and nomination/skit quality will skyrocket (even if the general results become bland), you can keep the segment at the end of the show where the votes are tallied by website
2. keep doing what you're doing
>>332219241
I don't give a shit about the results, I don't even know or care what they are. The fact is, they are extrapolating results based on a tiny fraction of the overall userbase then pushing it as a representation of the whole.
It's fundamentally flawed.
>>332219509
>cut your ties with /v/ once and for all
This toblerone
Fuck off
>>332211774
my thoughts:
>Do the next one in the actual GOTY season, January at the very latest and ideally December.
>The stream time you picked was ideal for most timezones, same time again pls
>The skits were almost entirely dreadful, some painfully so.
>The scoring system was really cool and it had a nice tension before the numbers were announced, keep it.
>Too much narrator attention on undertale, I know /v/ is obsessed with it but it went overboard
>The mario party segment to announce a winner was a really cool idea
Just started watching the video (I've already looked at the results) and I gotta say, I'm really enjoying these stupid remixes
>>332219587
As with any award show.
You should have voted
>>332219587
>>It's fundamentally flawed.
>what are statistics
Serious question: What is stopping someone with time and effort coming up and making another "/v/ award show" and having all different winners for the awards?
Because I can tell you now, results will drastically differ depending on the time of day and which sections of /v/ you target.
>>332219205
The base idea was to show the difference between votes each nominee got to put some perspective how far off a candidate was to winning. But because the show is using a preferential voting sytem the actual votes can't be given. So only the difference between how many people voted X over Y and how many people voted Y over X can be shown.
Basically it's only good to see how far off a candidate was to the candidate that is side by side. Sweep points are not good to estimate how far off candidate #5 was from the winning #1.In truth though the small +pts number was supposed to be the sweep points. At the end of the show they would've be summed up and a Sweep King and Sweep Queen declaredfor the whole show. The number running first is nonsensical
>>332219890
Threads for the VGAs were up all day
Don't be butthurt because your favorites didn't win
>>332219763
>what are statistics
I don't think you have taken a single statistics class if you don't understand my problem.
>>332219205
It doesn't just take into consideration how highly certain games were ranked but also how much people wanted x game to win over y game
this gives y game more negative points
>>332219509
if you don't want the show to be associated with /v/, you can always make the show yourself: our code - from the nomination process to the voting is open source.
>>332219948
Can you explain the system to me.
The intent behind it doesn't make much sense, because I'm unclear on how the system works in the first place.
where is that one skit where papyrus' head explodes?
>>332220110
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UXLgz3wH2n8
We also have jaded /v/'s results in there as a counterbalance: 8ch's
>>332219509
>cut your ties with /v/ once and for all
whoah let's not get carried away
>>332219763
If you actually understood statistics you'd know why it's flawed.
>>332219762
Retarded argument. If some college ran around the country saying they were collecting presidential votes everyone would obviously just tell them to fuck off, except a select few.
This is nothing official, never was and never will be, it's off-site and tries to come to a consensus on an anonymous site with a wide userbase. It's not even possible to contain the votes to the site alone.
It's retarded in too many ways to count.
>>332219627
it's stockholm syndrome at this point, the majority of /v/ doesn't give a fuck or straight up hates the show for no apparent reason
there's no reason to associate the awards with /v/ anymore when they have a stable team (working on it for the 4th consecutive year) with enough resources and creativity to deliver a quality product, increase the scope already and forsake this shithole that frowns upon OC
this way they'd actually make something that more than 5000 people care about (less each year), if it keeps this trajectory the /v/gas's are eventually going to fucking die and as a long time supporter I don't want it to happen
actually I'd bet /v/ would give 100x more attention if this was a internet-wide award so they could rig it to troll le redditors
>advertising your content on /v/ to earn money on youtube
get a job
>>332219890
The winners weren't decided by a straw poll. Voting was open for a sufficient amount of time to allow people from all timezones to vote
>>332211774
>MGS:V
>Less disappointing than Fallout 4 and Battlefront.
>Battlefront beat out Evolve for biggest cash grab even though Evolve spawned half a dozen memes for it's DLC.
Otherwise, I agree with most of that dog shit.
>>332220190
Basically if the person you voted for first doesn't win, your vote goes to the second choice, and that continues until there's two candidates left
gives votes more power
>>332220460
>contains content id from at least 20 different musicians
>blocked in germany because of gemacucks
sure nigga
>>332220031
>All day
>Anywhere near a substantial sample size
Pick one.
>Don't be butthurt because your favorites didn't win
Again, I didn't watch it, I don't know the results, For all I know everything I would have voted for if I even cared would have won.
The problem isboils down to people making statements for the whole when taking in a very small amount of samples. It's like the dipshits who take strawpolls then make claims like "/v/ loves undertale" because they have 40 votes saying they love it and 10 votes saying they hate it. (because they posted it in an Undertale thread)
It's completely flawed.
>>332220509
Sunset should've won most pretentious award.
>>332220132
your team is good and your show deserves more recognition than /v/ is giving you
that's all I'm saying
>>332220338
>If you actually understood statistics you'd know why it's flawed.
If you are telling me that it's wrong to extrapolate from a small number then you can fuck off
I'm really glad Undertale got the recognition it deserved that it didn't get from mainstream award shows.
>/v/ shows its shit taste in video games as always
>introduces sweep points for no apparent reason and wastes time explaining what it is without explaining why they switched from the old method or even why they chose the new method
>pre-show entertainment was boring
>inter-award skits ranged from okay to cringey
>the fucking host probably only had about two minutes of dialogue at most out of a two hour show
>tried to play on a shitty slime-show award ceremony from the 90s without any of the flair or soul
>the reasons why a game one an award were shortened even more, instead relying on epic todd howard memes and skits to present them
I had to be six shots of vodka deep to be entertained, so 4/10.
The vga ceremony was unimpressive as a whole, saved by a couple of skits and what would have been a good premise and theme to the show if it wasn't executed so poorly.
>>332220678
Why though? That game wasn't pushed as a masterpiece like some of the others there were.
>>332220641
He means all day as in every possible time in the day for like a couple weeks
I assure you the sample size was substantial
>>332220892
woops wrong image
>>332220641
By all day I meant like for 24 hours a day for like a week when voting was open.
It's not like there was one thread for voting and then it was over. Anyone who browsed /v/ while voting was open would have had an opportunity to vote.
This is the most accurate representation we're going to get. There's no better way to do it.
>>332219662
>Do the next one in the actual GOTY season, January at the very latest and ideally December
Doing December is pretty risky. The nominations have to take at least a week or so. Then the voting, another week. And even in the most perfect circumstances where graphics are all made beforehand the production may take 2 weeks.
In the end you are looking at 4 weeks where new games could've been released.
So while December is as you say THE GOTY Season it's pretty risky overall. However I feel we could try it.
>>332220936
Have you seen anything about Sunset? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aZly6bW3UMk
It's the only game there that actually pretends to be far more than what it actually is.
>>332220895
Sweep points have been around since '13, though
These fucking anime/rap remixes are gold
>>332220889
There's selection bias. The vast majority ignores this and it's very probable that it's a completely different demographic than the type of person who would actually take interest in something like this.
It's hardly anything that could represent the whole board.
>>332220889
>I use /v/
>I hate the /v/gas
Therefore all of /v/ hates the /v/gas.
Clearly you don't have a problem with this logic. Stop making them.
>>332211774
Best VGA's since 2012, Good job OP.
Only complaint is that some of the "rants" went on for too long, but overall I enjoyed everything.
Most Hated Award was complete bullshit.
There were way worse game in 2015 than ANY of the nominations.
Also Her Story doesn't count. A game has to be a video game first of all to even be considered worst game.
>>332220972
>I assure you the sample size was substantial
Post numbers.
>>332211774
Do you guys crowdsource the little segments explaining why a certain game won or lost something? I'd recommend crowdsourcing it.
>>332221243
Would you consider a jigsaw puzzle game a videogame
because that's essentially what her story is
was this intentional
>>332221345
Not that guys, but:
https://2015.vidyagaemawards.com/results/pairwise
>>332221445
Let me add: put a character limit, make them public and implement some kind of upboat system to choose the best.
>>332221345
https://2015.vidyagaemawards.com/results
pretty much as high as we could get them, waiting more days would probably not increase them by much
>>332221486
yeah it was a shot at the vgas
>>332211774
For what it was, I feel as though it were a far more entertaining and accurate award show for vidya than anything the actual award shows could ever hope to be.
The skits and the jokes definitely need work, though. Some of them were good and made me laugh, but some of them needed to be drastically shortened or just outright cut from the show.
>>332221243
It literally says most hated in the title you retard. It's quite obvious what the award is actually for. And the winner is objectively correct.
>>332221214
Then we get right back to the analogy from earlier. Just like the elections, some people give a shit some don't
>>332221486
yes...
>>332221243
the award is for the MOST HATED though
>>332221596
didn't watch the vgas since I didn't give a shit. What did they do?
>>332221689
exactly the same thing
mixed up the creator and the game
>>332221453
If Her Story was a jigsaw puzzle in a digital format, I would consider it a video game.
It's literally just a piece of software that contains a video and you just edit those pieces together. It's Adobe After Effects but it can only be used for this one specific piece. That's it.
Remember, if you disliked the winners or nominess, it's /v/'s fault (or yours if you didn't vote).
>>332220190
Sweep points have nothing to do with nominee ranking.
The ranking is using Schulze preferential voting system.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schulze_method
This voting system produces a ranking based on how well a nominee is prefered over other nominees. It's output is a ranking only.
Sweep points try to show the original data in a more interesting light. How much the next best candidate lost to the current candidate. This sheds more light on how people voted without having to explicitly look up voting tables.
>>332221629
>for worst video game
It it was just simply most hated game, then it would have a point, but they added that subtitle, which is what the award really is about.
>>332211774
That actually seemed like a decent representation of this place. Good work anon.

What exactly is this? This is the single most cringe worthy thing related to video games. Holy shit. Are people saying some parts were okay taking the Piss or something?
>>332221643
That's an official institution in which all people under governance are requested to vote for a representative.
What this is, is the hobo in the neighborhood going around collecting votes, then deciding that the president should be his dog since only his hobo friends actually voted. Then he runs around the neighborhood shouting about how his dog was elected and if they wanted him to shut up they should just have voted for somebody else.
>>332221453
A digital jigsaw puzzle I would consider a video game.
>>332221180
then it's even more misleading and ridiculous to state you're introducing sweep points this year as if setting a precedent.
And it still doesnt address the complaint that there was no valid reason to use them over a traditional vote counting method.
>>332221765
but you have to search for the pieces using the keywords function and figure out the story in your head by the order of the pieces
don't get me wrong, the game is completely uninteresting and extremely cheap, but to deny it has any form of interactivity is silly
>>332221870
It doesn't really matter though. I could go and publish a game on steam that constantly crashes on startup, and is all about bouncing a box off a screen with no end and insane memory leaks, and also charge 5 dollars for it. Does that game deserve to win most hated game of the year?
Point is, there's so much bullshit shoved onto steam/PSN/XBL these days, where do you drawn the line on what can deserve worst game of the year?
>>332221993
Even if it was the official 4chan vga hosted by Moot himself you would still bitch stating that "not enough people participated".
>DS3 won award for game in 2016 we hope isn't shit
Bullshit. DS3 is going to be shit and everyone knows it.I nominated Zero Escape 3, but we all know already that it's going to be great.
>>332222103
It's the first time they are "introducing" to the viewers.
>>332217436The dog gag was tasteful though

>Sweep points have been around since '13, though
Who are you and why are you bullshitting
>>332221969
thanks man
>>332221792
The wiki only made it more confusing to understand.
I'm now less certain than before.
Sweep points are literally just the votes difference between participants
don't be mislead by the naming I think they did a really poor job of explaining shit
the voting system is the same as it was before but for some reason they decided to start showing by how much a certain game has won
>>332222346
Fuck no, because at least then it would have at least some level of credence. Granted it would be subject to the same problems as all internet polls have, outside influence.
>>332217580
>Huey didn’t win worst character
>>332222346
Exquisite straw manning. Could you try using actual arguments and logic at some point in this discussion?

>not being a meme spouting faglord in chat

Maybe I would learn, if I had someone willing to teach.
There has to be a better way to explain the method.
>>332222823
right back at you. We went full circle and nobody has yet refuted the analogy. But fear not I can live without you understanding

there's a difference between people just randomly clicking on 4chan and people who browse /v/ often enough to be interested in a videogame awards show on /v/

These are the nega-awards, the least voted ones and these are pretty interesting.
>>332223479
You could vote for more than one nominee?
I guess knowing that is a start. But I'm still not sure how the data is used to come up with these points.
>>332223682
in more way than one
>>332211774
This made me laugh
>>332223556
>around 2500 voters
>4chan has hyperlinking disabled by default
>>332223749
This, the guy is making a fuss when he ALSO doesn't have hard numbers to compare to.
Just an asspained faggot that can't handle people enjoying stuff he doesn't enjoy.
>>332223856
Watch a god damn graphical explanation, doing it over text is extremely difficult
>>332223749
You're wrong
>>332211774
STOP
Y-YOU'RE WRONG
>>332223998
Come on. If you just demonstrate how you would calculate the numbers, then I could figure it out.
Like, I'm fairly certain the actual method when practiced, doesn't require all that complicated math from the wiki. Just show me the "legal pad" version of the process.
>>332224421
>>332223998
No wait. Never mind. I stopped caring. Don't waste your time.
>>332211774
>If you have any ideas about the execution of future events, post them here for discussion.
Don't. Just fuck off. This year's /v/GAs were a pile of garbage, just like every other year. And just like every other year you were told to fuck off countless times but you did it anyway.
Fuck off.
>>332224906
Did you even watch the show?
very fun.
Kinda disappointed Witcher 3 took the best award.
I guess the shitters don't give a damn about gameplay anymore.
>>332224997
I sat through about ten minutes of the hideous retro aesthetic, horrible announcer voice, and unfunny skits before deciding that this year was just as bad as any other, and gave up on it.
>>332225156
Do you ever think your taste is not compatible with /v/?
>>332219662
>>Do the next one in the actual GOTY season, January at the very latest and ideally December.
Terrible idea. One of the big problems with this year's was how early the nominations / voting started, where people had no time at all to have gotten through November / December's big games.
>>332225401
Considering I've been browsing for 12 years and I have the same opinion I find that very hard to believe.
>>332225401
Given that I'm not the only person who's been noticing that they're shit and telling them to fuck off each year, no.
All in all pretty good. Some things I disagree with but I've got some unpopular opinions.
>Stealth Games
>10. Evolve
IT STILL HURTS
>>332212073
Wat
I haven't watched through it all yet, but so far it feels like it's improving.
Btw if you're in here, I enjoy them all keep doing it.
How the fuck was Fallout 4 a bigger disappointment than THPS5? FO4 is an okay action adventure game, and really not any worse than FO3, while Tony Hawk fans have waited over a decade for THPS5, and got greeted with a horrible cash-grab with terrible physics, level design, and music, that barely even functions as a Tony Hawk game. At least FO4 works.
You guys really don't play a lot of video games, do you?
>>332211774
Great, keep sowing the butthurt. Please keep the skits to a minimum though. The Korean thing and tranny thing went on for a long time, but the NINTENDOS DEAD and FunnyKat were perfect.
>>332225417
>with this year's was how early the nominations / voting started
What world are you living in ? These started the most late of all years. The show was streamed the most late too. Nominations were usually carried before Christmas and the voting started January 1st.
>>332211774
>Kaz "fulton a coon and I'll shoot the balloon" Miller wins an award
>Oricucks and their meme game got blown out
Good year desu senpai
>>332223749
Did you watch moot's final Q&A?
Were you even using 4chan at the time, I wonder?
One major problem he had was that everyone seems to have their own vision of what 4chan is, and in an anonymous community people often vastly underestimate how many people are using a particular board at any one time.
Now, the highest amount of total votes I saw in the results, was 5027 votes out of a potential pool of 22 million. Because let's face it, Anyone who clicks on /v/ can contribute to the voting.
We can argue semantics about how people who only click on 4chan to investigate aren't likely to contribute, or that how long time users are likely to ignore this bullshit and the voters are most likely users who are new to /v/ as evidenced by the supposed meme spamming in the various chat rooms.
But I'd love to see your reasoning behind how you can take results from at worst a 0.0002% demographic and start pushing them as a representation of the whole.
>>332226483
Well then they're all doing it too early.
>>332226594
Do you see the show streaming in May ?
>>332226702
That would be preferable, yes.
>>332211774
>video is private
>>332227125
Only in Germany.
hi yes the video was made private because we are uploading a "directors cut" that shortens a lot of stuff than ran way too long and other stuff we couldn't fix before the stream date.
>>332227242
oh fuck, they invaded us again?
>>332211774
This time: Completely fucking forgotten about edition!
>>332211774
Awesome work guys, loved the aesthetic and the skits were good, I liked how they were worked into the awards. looking forward to next year.
fucking upload it already i want to watch it on my tv
1. There's just too many memes. /v/ memes sound awkward IRL and some of them are delivered so obscurely, it's lost on the viewer. Not saying it's wrong to spout memes but when I can't go a literal minute without spotting one it's overdoing it.
2. This might be an anonymous image board but the monotone "anon" VA is yawn-inducing . I would add maybe an accompanying narratorin the form of /a/-chanfor comedy relief to spice things up and maybe additional thoughts on why X won.
3. The commercial breaks must be lengthened. I think the show would be passing up a good opportunity here if they didn't.
>>332211774
So we normalfag now?
Fuck you neo-/v/
>>332211774
can't watch the video
>>332212030
>10 year anniversary of reddit and tumblrs video game award show disguised as /V/
Yeah nah fuck off. This shit is cancer.
>Have to be granted permission in order to watch
Yeah nah.
The first one of these things was the worst video I've ever seen. Why do you mongoloids keep it up?

Re-editing to make it less shitty.
>>332229113
Just keep that video up until the other one is done then delete it, you stupid pansy.
>>332223059
> well written
.....
>>332229113
>Re-editing to make it less shitty.
So scrapping the project entirely then?
>>332229190
Hey, just pointing out. I'm not OP.
>>332211774
>everyones talking about the video
>video is private
???
RIGGED
>>332222404
undertale doesn't deserve the fanbase it has and it doesn't deserve the hate it gets because of it
>>332217580
>Alphys voted worst character even though she's literally the most well written character in Undertale
A character is more than just "character development". Alphys was an obnoxious abomination that plagued massive sections in the game. Whatever point the hack creator was trying to make by making her obnoxious and annoying wasn't good enough to make up for her being a horrible, disgusting pest.
>>332229190
because nobody in their right mind is gonna watch it twice so we rather people watch a less shitty version
I was happy battlefront won cash grab
>>332229560
>most well written character
>literally the worst written character
is this some kind of reverse bait or something
>have to download 2.40 GB of memes to watch it
OP please
>>332229690
I think you quoted the wrong anon.
WHERE IS THE FUCKING VIDEO
>>332217580
Go back to MAL, Battlechili
>EVEANGELION in preshow
>Undertale mix in preshow
>Moon me up in preshow
>wow they must have REALLY nice skits
>two muh soggy knees jokes both 8 minutes too long
>Iwata funeral joke that should've been 50 seconds and not 5 minutes
WHY, THE PRESHOW HAD REAL VIDEOGAME SKITS OF PROPER TIME
Whoever shoved actual vidya skits into a preshow for the sjw garbage is the fucking worst
For a board so adamantly against reddit you guys sure do act like it with cringe crap like this. Jesus christ.
>>332229723
where do you think you are
>>332230226
>talking like you don't use /v/
why are you here
>>332230226
there is literally nothing wrong with reddit
t. my wifes son
>>332230315
No I'm not, I'm literally using it right now. I'm saying this shit is reddit tier stupidity.
>>332230140
I liked the eveangelion video and the undertale mix but adding any of them (except the eveangelion one) wouldn't fix any problems all the skits were way too long
>>332230360
You're pretty good.
>>332230140
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5iEpE53-n2s
eveangelion was top tier
runners up for me were the dog bait and switch and stuff3's video
I saved this the night that the first /v/ga's happened, and I post it every time I see the /v/ga's pop up again.
>according to friends the most celebrated skits were an eve online video not even in the main show and a funnykat newgrounds porn flash game skit
how bad was it this year?
While you guys are here can you go and do this straw poll just so we can get a simple way to see what people thought? http://strawpoll.me/7203217
um where is the video
Not a fan of the whole doll skit thing, but I think it might work for a big part of this board. I liked the vote format.
>>332231014
Except it did translate to video
>>332230226
Is /v/ even still adamantly against reddit anymore?
I remember when memeshit was vehemently hated for a while under the pretenses that it was 'reddit,' but at this point, memes are a meme in themselves and forced shit like the Pacha stuff gain steam, despite being the same, stupid, low-effort kind of template shit people used to complain about.
>best anime game wasnt even Japanese
What the fuck is wrong with you people?
>>332231271
>Is /v/ even still adamantly against reddit anymore?
yes

I like the old vhs aesthetic but the splatoon inspired graphics really clashes with the mortal kombat announcer.
