There’s a corruption controversy rocking The Game Awards, and it’s about…Genshin Impact? Apparently there are many Sonic Frontiers Fans and TGA fans watching the rise of the game of gacha in the Players’ The Voice Awards category was suspect, and they are noisy above her displeasure
Genshin Impact has a premium currency called Primogems, which is used to roll limited-time gacha characters. Primogems are distributed sparsely compared to other gacha games, so the community likes to joke about it genshin The players will do anything for them.
You can probably see what I’m getting at with this. Instead of organic popularity and interest, it was speculated about genshin Players are motivated by Primogems instead. Last year, Genshin Impact won the “Best Mobile Game” award at TGA. After the show, HoYoverse announced Up to 10 rolls to all its players. my city reached out to HoYoverse to ask if it plans to give out free Primogems after TGA this year, but didn’t receive a response at the time of publication.
G/O Media may receive a commission
an editor took to Keighley’s Reddit AMA to ask what he would do regarding “bribery” and “botting” at the Player’s Choice Awards.
“I think it’s fan bases that activate to support a game, or a game promoting its nomination to its fan base,” Keighley wrote. “That’s one of the reasons we don’t have 100 percent fan voting in the main categories.” However, he promised that TGA will “investigate this now.”
It was interesting to see which games players thought should win genshin. Some were upset that it might win God of War Ragnarok or Sonic Frontiers. God of War, I understand. The blockbuster action-adventure game was loved by critics across the border. On the other hand, critics swung sound to the to be boring. Perhaps it is more correct to say that both sound and genshin benefit from a top-class IP. Except that one series is seen as more institutionally legitimate than the other.
To those genuinely upset at the possibility of HoYoverse using its fan base to push genshin top: You know The Game Awards is a marketing machine, right? I promise you this is not a corruption scandal like the Panama Papers or Watergate. Personally, I prefer to rely on friends certain video game bloggers to tell me which games are good.
At the time of writing, Sonic Frontiers is at the top of the playerit’s Category voice with 17 percent of the votes.
