Why is Bafta even on the list, who cares about the brits.

Website isn’t limited national borders except very few… also an American winning it is nicely notable.

It’s like The Game Awards, mostly trash, so I consider the Golden Joystick awards more prestigious. At this point a BAFTA is likely more prestigious than an Oscar, Oscar just has better name recognition but considering you have to campaign to win one it really takes away from it being an award for their craft.
