2020 Vidya Gaem Awards Interview by N.A.'s personal zine

Article from N.A's personal zine, reuploaded with permission from the author. Description by GPT-4: This article dives deep into the Vidya Gaem Awards, a counter-cultural event birthed from the 4chan board /v/. Formed as a rebellious reaction to the Spike Video Game Awards, the /v/GAs have grown modestly over the years, offering a satirical, community-driven take on game awards, with much of its spirit rooted in the anarchic ethos of 4chan. Interviews with the Director and Producer, Counter and Lamer Gamer, shed light on their development process, the show's democratic voting system that rejects industry influence, and the fine balance they maintain between humor and serious analysis during the show. Despite the hurdles and criticisms, the creators express pride in the show's growth and encourage people to tune in, embracing the vibrant, chaotic culture it represents with an open mind. Their favorite product, unanimously agreed upon, is "Skub".
