The Game Awards 2023: Winners Shortchanged, Ads Overshadowed
Geoff Keighley, host and producer of The Game Awards, agrees that winners were not given enough stage time during the show. Despite no one being cut off, Keighley acknowledged the pressure winners felt to wrap up their speeches quickly. A teleprompter with the message "Please Wrap It Up" was used, and the music played to signal time constraints. Keighley expressed the need to address this issue in future shows.
