"The Game Awards 2023: Industry Disappointment, Memorable Reveals, and Short Speeches"

The Game Awards 2023 received criticism for failing to give game developers the recognition they deserve. Winners were given only 30 seconds to give their acceptance speeches before being drowned out by music, and some awards were relegated to the pre-show. The show also prioritized Hollywood celebrities over game developers. The lack of acknowledgment for the industry's challenges, such as layoffs, was disappointing. Suggestions for improvement include dedicating separate days for awards and game announcements and giving winners more time to speak. Despite the shortcomings, congratulations were extended to the winners and gratitude was expressed to the hard-working developers who bring color to the gaming world.
