Summaries

An unconventional online gaming award show by 4chan's /v/ combines positive and negative categories, skits, and eye-opening winners.

The 2013 Vidya Gaem Awards celebrated and critiqued various aspects of the gaming industry. The awards show featured a mix of serious and satirical categories. Major winners included "Gone Home" (for "Worst Writing", "Worst Gameplay" and "Most Hated"), "Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance" (for "Best Gameplay", "Best Soundtrack" and "Least Worst"), and "Monster Girl Quest: Chapter 3" (for "Best Writing" and "Biggest Emotional Impact"). Other notable winners were "SimCity," infamous for its technical issues, and "Dragon's Crown," recognized for its visual aesthetics and representation of women. The event also highlighted controversial industry practices, such as Dante's redesign and the Ouya console's disappointing launch. With a minimalist theme and a 64-minute runtime, the Vidya Gaem Awards make a humble comeback from its first two years.
