Vidya Gaem Awards
Entertainment & Press
The /v/GAs (Vidya Gaem Awards) were born in early December 2011 as a response to the Spike VGAs, which were widely regarded as terrible. So, a small group of anons decided to make their own presentation for /v/: after a month or so of planning, categories were made, votes were tallied and the presentation was shown to over 12,000 people live. It was also widely regarded as terrible, though not nearly as bad. And every year since 2011, a group of anons come together to make an award show showcasing the best and worst in video gaming. Run by /v/, for /v/, the /v/GAs is the community's response to industry funded award shows.
One part shitty Earthbound, one part shitty Persona, one part shitty retarded fanbase, Undertale has many, many flaws. Several elements show the lack of work and thought put into them. The art style is inconsistent and lazy, the story is mediocre, the humor is forced, the actual combat is simple and boring, there’s barely any equipment variety, and most of the characters are tired cliches. But let’s not kid ourselves, we know why Undertale is so hated. It’s the fans. The real reason why it’s become the most loved and hated game online right now. Kind of like the Donald Trump of gaming. But instead of making video games great again, Undertale made the culture far, far worse.
The fan base of Undertale is similar to another three extremely hated fanbases. Furries, Homestucks, and bronies. Their obsessiveness, the injection of their shitty fandom into anything they touch, the critical levels of autism reached in its discussion, but most of all, their insane drive to annoyingly push the game onto everyone they know and then some, wanting everyone they know to play it and love it too. Even if they’re not interested. Even if they’ve straight up said no before, even if it’s the tenth time you’re telling them to fuck off. This not only has the effect of making people annoyed but the sheer response the game gets also creates unrealistic expectations as to what it’s actually like. And when someone cracks under the pressure and finally plays it, oh boy, are they disappointed.
So congratulations, undertale fanbase. This is what your actions have brought you. Undertale is the winner of the most hated game of 2015, and also the new MLP. Hope you’re happy.
