I can not start to wrap round my head how the completely terrible Silent Hill: Ascension has gained an Emmy.
Everyone knows that Silent Hill: Ascension is a foul “recreation” proper? I put recreation in air quotes there as a result of it is exhausting to name it one, actually, when all you bought to do was vote on what cutscenes performed out. And but in some way, in opposition to all odds, it has gained an Emmy. Sure, the identical Emmys that give out awards to truly good TV reveals versus no matter Ascension truly is. The award it particularly gained is for “Excellent Innovation In Rising Media Programming” and I do not learn about you, however I do not assume both the phrase “excellent” or “innovation” belongs wherever close to that mess of a Silent Hill recreation.
I am not truly positive what innovation there even is in Ascension? The actual fact it had individuals collectively enjoying a “recreation” reside? Twitch Performs Pokemon did {that a} decade in the past, and it did not have the power to pay for higher votes that may make one final result extra possible both – just a bit reminder there as to how a lot of a multitude Ascension’s monetisation system was, not even mentioning its season go. One way or the other its Emmy win will get much more baffling although, because it seems that it is not the one factor to have gained the award.
The Apple Imaginative and prescient Professional mixed-reality Marvel recreation What If…? – An Immersive Story additionally gained the award, besides, the factor is, it was additionally the one different nominated piece of media. Sure, out of the 2 that had been nominated, each gained the award, however that does appear to be primarily based on the truth that it was a juried award, which means there have been solely a choose variety of individuals that truly voted on it (possible on this case as a result of they had been each video games, roughly, so wanted individuals who truly know concerning the business).
Nonetheless, Emmy or no Emmy, I would not hassle with Ascension, particularly contemplating the Silent Hill 2 remake is arising, which our personal Kelsey thought was truly surprisingly good in a current preview.
