The SXSW Gaming Awards have been going on since 2014 showcasing the ‘very best titles and creators of the year’ where they nominate five titles in each category.

SXSW decided to integrate the Gamer’s Voice Award into the SXSW Gaming Awards. Final Fantasy XIV has gone from being one of the worst games of all time with the initial release going to flames back in 2010 the game was so bad it got shut down.

However, it was worked on again by Naoki Yoshida, who completely revived the game into what is now thought of as one of the best MMO games of all time, if not the best thanks to the recent decline of World of Warcraft.
