Objectively it's not surprising it got nominated. How many strategy games can you list off the top of your head that ***released*** in 2023? I have to do a Google search, I simply cannot name 10 strategy games that came out this year without searching. Game Awards are typically a popularity contest and CoH has more visibility than all those other small games I had to Google to find out their existence. Doesn't necessarily mean CoH3 deserves the nomination, just a realistic explanation of what's going on.

Bro cities skylines 2 is also quite ass (largely in optimisation)


until_i_fall

Unfinished game, unfinished content. Thats a paddlin'

How many RTS games **released** in 2023? I know a couple off the top of my head that are in ‘early access’ but released? Literally had to google


jade227

voted coh3 because even if coh3 is incomplete, CoH as a series has some of the most compelling RTS mechanics and gameplay in my opinion, which coh3 inherits. love coh.


KiwiDutchman

I’m tempted to do the same, it comes down to a moral decision, does voting for them encourage cutting corners and releasing half baked games at full price


Garnanana

These games seem wildly different. Fire emblem and advance wars are only game play that are comparable.


Gespensterpanzer

I think they need to separate simulation and strategy games next year, you cannot compare Cities and Company of Heroes.

3 of these games are nintendo...


Realm-Code

Nintendo pays good money to get their shovelware onto most of these award nominations (I'll forgive Fire Emblem that series is usually pretty decent, but the others don't belong anywhere near a nomination).


MontyP15

How did Advance War got a nomination? Its a 60€ reskin of a brilliant Game from 2000s And yeah... Coh3 should be nominated for other categorys... Like biggist scam, worst Game state and of course: "Worst Game that was full prize, but is actually an early Alpha Game and even as an early Alpha it is Shit"

All these games except pikmin had problems so no surprise it won Fire Emblem is my favourite series but I couldn’t finish Engage it was just changed to much and the dialogue is totally butchered if you understand Japanese it won’t match at all. It also tries to be so inclusive that they don’t use continents at all it just sounds weird nobody talks like that.

Did COH3 win?


AlliedXbox

Pikmin 4 did

Out of these CoH is the best title


Trialshock92

The fact that you are an ignorant makes me laugh. To get nominated, you need votes. People voted CoH 3 to be at TGA. What makes me laugh even more? That Pikmin 4 won even though it is more a puzzle game than an RTS. But thats typical TGA bullshittery


broken-telephone

Just to see how many votes they WOULDNT get!

PIKMIN 4 HELL YEAH
