This year, we’re highlighting four people who combined playing games with activism in their hopes of making the gaming world—or really, just the world overall—a better place.

Tanya DePass
Hasan Piker
Amira “Xmiramira” Virgil
Danielle “EbonixSims” Udogaranya

So were they only considering activists as part of their criteria, or...?

BIONIC · « **Reply #2 on:** December 31, 2020, 12:14:14 AM »

All the parties I go to are full of activists.

zomgee · « **Reply #3 on:** December 31, 2020, 01:01:30 AM »

Crap I only got 3 of them right.

They look like Cyberpunk 2077 NPC's

So 2 Sims 'players' sponsored by EA.
One lady who creates her own table top and plays Animal Crossing.
Plus an 'activist' that calls people with a GTX 1080 poor

Even as far as activism goes 3 of these are bad choices

Pissy F Benny · « **Reply #10 on:** December 31, 2020, 06:20:25 AM »

You’re telling me that kotaku have gone for the surface level woke choices

Pissy F Benny · « **Reply #11 on:** December 31, 2020, 06:22:53 AM »

I was gonna go for a ‘why have they chosen Lizzo three times, I didn’t even know she gamed

’ joke but deemed it would have been in poor taste

I know you're trolling me, yet still I find myself enraged

Thought this was about Todd and Aaron

Only one i recognise is hasan because he is a livestreamfails meme

Skullfuckers Anonymous · « **Reply #15 on:** December 31, 2020, 11:17:49 AM »

Of course Kotaku would be too afraid to acknowledge Kyuuji’s greatness.

It's Hololive EN.

kicking off 2021 with the nightmarish thought of getting trapped in a conversation with any of those four people.

I'm glad I don't know who any of these people are and you should be ashamed...very, very ashamed...if you do.

benjipwns · « **Reply #22 on:** January 01, 2021, 04:33:20 AM »

I actually heard of two of them before this post (not the Sims people)

Boogie2988, 5 years in a row baybee!

Lest we forget, this mf'er came out blasting on his front porch wearing a Tomb Raider t-shit. Fucking legend.

Boogie2988 whenever someone knocks on his front door:

Even for kotaku this is some shit,

also last year they gave it to Etika when the very culture they foster is what killed the guy? You fucking snakes.

Human Snorenado · « **Reply #26 on:** January 02, 2021, 09:22:19 PM »

I feel like the gamer of the year should be the regular ass gamers that play more than just sports games and call of dooty but don't feel a need to like, make it a lifestyle or whatever

(he said, posting on a videogames forum on the internets)

Nintex · « **Reply #27 on:** January 02, 2021, 09:27:05 PM »

Kotaku is just pandering to their 5 remaining readers and dangling some clickbait.

I don't think they'll make it through 2021.
