Lol. The ending. Pfft. Had me laughing.

Oh god, Marty as Gendo Ikari is disturbing. In seriousness, if Yahtzee’s theory of the Game Awards being about praising the establishment holds any water, then Clair Obscur might get robbed. It’s a game from a kiiiinda niche genre, made by a small team that broke off from a bloated triple-A company to make a genuine work of art. The ‘look what you can do when unshackled from the mega corp’ narrative might not sit well. I honestly think Yōtei will win, just because it’s considered safe.

Wait. How is any of this a "bloodbath"?
