Following scrutiny from developers, The Game Awards founder and host Geoff Keighley has said he agrees the allotted speech time for each winner was too short this year.
In total, speeches made up 10 minutes of The Game Awards’ three hour runtime.
“By the way – I do agree that the music was played too fast for award winners this year,” Keighley began.
Keighley has not spoken on the weighting between time allotted to awards winners and advertising at The Game Awards, which has been highlighted by developers in the wake of the show, nor its omission of a statement on the huge number of layoffs in the games industry this year or the ongoing humanitarian crisis in Palestine.
