The Game Awards is nice since I have no expectations on what'll be announced and not wishing what game I want to win.

I noticed that Geoff Keighley has taken all the criticisms about not mentioning the layoffs and gave way to that with him mentioning it, featuring Amir Satvat who helped laid-off devs find new jobs, and letting Swen give out a speech about the layoffs. I fully agree with Swen, since you cannot really foster creativity by constantly laying off talented people.

The only thing I was really hoping for from The Game Awards was info on Big Walk, but given all the other announcements I can't say I'm upset that we didn't hear anything.
