So I know it is de rigueur to gripe about the Ennies but I figure we should have a thread here to do it in one place and maybe even discuss the nominees we do like.
ennie-awards.com
Honestly, all awards for books, films and games are always silly but for a fan-driven award the Ennies are usually surprisingly decent when it comes to winners. Probably due to the niche of a niche nature of the voting base I guess.
This year includes a lot of mid-tier publishers like Free League, Handiwork and the folks behind Heart.
I suspect Free League, with both their excellent Alien game and Vaesen (the latter of which I've yet to check out although it is on my list), to clean up a lot of these awards.

Great to see Jeremy and Brendan's Righteous Blood, Ruthless Blades, Jon Hodgson's Beowulf and Cam Banks and company's Cortex Prime get nominated. Taylor and Howitt's Heart is a terrific, imaginative game I really want to run so glad to see it getting love.
