Najavljene su nominacije za Origins Awards 2019 za izvanredne igre i proizvode iz hobi i industrije društvenih igara.
The Academy of Adventure Gaming Arts and Design je objavila nominovane naslove za sve kategorije, među kojima su društvene igre, kartične igre, RPG igre, kolekcionarske igre, porodične igre i igre sa minijaturama.
Kako se industrija razvija i granice između žanrova i tipova igara polako nestaju, primetna je čudna postavka Keyforge, Space Base i Villainous naslova. Keyforge je svrstan u kolekcionarske igre, što on i jeste ali ne u tradicionalnom smislu kao ostali naslovi u ovoj kategoriji (MTG, HeroClix, Star Wars Destiny). Space Base je stavljen u kategoriju društvenih igara na tabli dok je Villanous svrstan kao kartična igra.
Vrlo je moguće da ćemo među društvenim igrama videti reprizu Golden Geek Awards, odnosno pobede Root i The Mind, iako mi iskreno glasamo za Brass i Space Base. Znamo, previše smo pristrasni kad je u pitanju Brass, ali nismo ga bez razloga stavili među najbolje igre 2018. godine. Izbor porodičnih igara je, upravo zbog pomenutog pretumbavanja, vrlo čudan i pored When I Dream i The Climbers ne vidimo ko bi drugi mogao da odnese pobedu u toj kategoriji.
U RPG delu Vampire: The Masquarade je u opasnoj ekipi koja pretenduje za najbolji RPG naslov. Tu su Monte Kukov Destiny/ Discovery Corebook za Numeneru, Star Trek Adventure Set i Mutants & Masterminds Basic Hero’s Handbook.
Wizards of the Coast je nominovan za najbolji RPG suplement, Mordenkainen’s Tome of Foes, gde odmerava snage sa starim rivalom Chaosiumom koji je nominovan sa Call of Cthulhu: Masks of Nyarlathotep. Tu je Fantasy Flight Games sa Legend of the Five Rings: Emerald Empire.
Pobednici svih kategorija će biti objavljeni 15. juna 2019 godine tokom Origins Game Fair 2019 sajma. Posetioci sajma će imati prilike da probaju nominovane igre i da na sajmu daju svoj glas za najbolju igru po glasovima publike.
