The best of The Game Awards and the redemption of Geoff Keighley | The DeanBeat


Geoff Keighley redeemed himself with his tenth anniversary show for The Game Awards.

And this time, Keighley acknowledged the 34,000 industry layoffs in the past 2.5 years and he gave the first-ever Game Changer award to Amir Satvat, a single person who has made such a difference in enabling so many developers to get work. I was also gleeful to see the appearance of celebrities like Harrison Ford, who cracked a joke alongside voice actor Troy Baker, who played the lead in the wonderful Indiana Jones and the Great Circle (which came out too late in the year to win any awards). AGBO, started by the Russo brothers who made the Avengers movies, worked with Neople to make Nexon’s upcoming The First Berserker: Khazan, which was sufficiently violent for gamers.
