This event is a joke. I was looking at the 30 games available to vote at Player's Voice and there was 0 indie games in there. But you know what? I can vote for genshin, apex, and all those online bullshit. It's all about popularity, marketing. It's all about money.

There's no need to take it seriously, enjoy the trailers, the live music, enjoy seeing voice/performance actors being celebrated.

I don't take it seriously, but you know that they can do better than that. Games that released in 2023 should get praise, not live service games that didn't even release that year.

Like, why should these games be able to compete in player's voice instead of so many other highly acclaimed games in 2023? How can anyone "celebrate" the industry like you said when they themselves don't take the awards seriously, what you're doing is celebrating games from the big publishers and the biggest live service games at the moment, not the industry, but the rich people in it.
