They need to go back and give an award to NieR: Automata.

It's Grammy, so giving something to a non-US composer outside of the international award most likely ain't happenning.

Like modern critics even care about the quality - just look at BAFTA game awards that ignore nearly all Japanese games, mostly in favor of Sony paychecks. And Grammy just wants some free watchers after a major blow in viewership that they got in recent years, so it's all nothing but a PR stunt.

PR stunt or no the video game industry getting acknowledgement by the Grammys is still a big deal regardless of whether the composers are based in or outside of Japan.

NieR Automata needs to retroactively win... I'll also nominate Persona 5.

Yoko Taro needs to be on stage with his helmet beside a reunited Daft Punk.
