I honestly do think FFXVI deserved best music though. Even if Yahtzee is right about why they gave it that award, the score for that game is really really good

I've enjoyed watching Nick's merch ad at the end twice now. I also enjoyed the episode :)

Now if next year there is no Second Wind Emotion Based Game Awards (SWEBGA if you will), I WILL do it myself! I expect this statement by a zero-public-presence-person like me inspire urgency for doing it :p

Regarding doing awards on something other than genre, there was a paper on defining games on Mechanics, Dynamics, and Aesthetics, where the aesthetics matches pretty close to what you describe. https://youtu.be/uepAJ-rqJKA?si=hwpbZ3ZUg-B2kD0Q summarizes it well, as does the https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/MDA_framework wiki

As a Finn I have to do the token cringe upon hearing "sam lake", I've heard more entertaining Westerner Names from Chinese game teams. Anyway, carry on.
