Top 10 10. Red Dead Redemption 2 Amazing story of Arthur Morgan, great leap in making interactions between characters seem more lifelike, incredibly good and unique looking world but middling everything else. 9. Resident Evil 2 What my memory of playing older games looks like in my head. Midgame and endgame was a bit too linear for my tastes. 8. Death Stranding Unique experience that was for me let down by the extremely uneven pacing and almost all the exposition being backloaded. 7. SOMA Incredible story. I wish they didn't feel the need to include combat and some stretches of the game could have definitely been shorter. 6. What Remains of Edith Finch The best walking sim I've played so far. Not a inch of game wasted. 5. Life if Strange: Before the Storm Knowing the ending didn't make this any easier. 4. Outer Wilds Exploration that doesn't suck. Mysteries that made my body tingle. 3. Control The first surprise of the year. I had zero expectations despite liking Alan Wake but this game had well-crafted atmosphere and world that is unlike any other. Closest comparison for me is Prey's Talos I. 2. Sekiro Made me swear a lot but the world, atmosphere and combat is incredible. 1. Disco Elysium This game took the cake this year. Completely unexpected but so worth playing. Incredible writing, art style and compelling story. poo poo that was good but uneven and thus didn't make the list: Star Wars: Fallen Order Decent first attempt. Huge hopes for sequel. Ghost of a Tale Great exploration game that gets a bit bogged down in jank. Vampyr I actually really liked the story and innovative morality system but the game was a bit too long and padded in the second half. poo poo I expected to love but didn't: Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night I think I might just dislike the general art style. The game also didn't feel very good or exciting to play. Dragon Quest Builders I think there is definitely space for more guided Minecraft but this ain't it, chief. The Missing: J.J. Macfield and the Island of Memories Incredibly janky and unfun to play. Shame because I think the story is probably really good. The Outer Worlds Mediocre but without the good writing this time. lordfrikk fucked around with this message at 13:13 on Dec 18, 2019 |

I loved the English VA in Plague Tale and thought the interactions between the siblings were super cute. Definitely enjoyed my time with it but the levels were kind of old school dumb puzzles that made the level layouts make no logical sense. It's a dumb complaint, too, I admit but oh well

Captain Invictus posted:Yep that's me, that's what they call me! For what it's worth your post made me put Indivisible on my soon-to-play list whereas before it wasn't even on my radar. The protagonist sounds dope and the art style is just amazing.

I have played around 35 games from the top 75. I have a big gap when it comes to Nintendo games because except for GBA I've never owned any of their devices (have played only BotW on PC with emulator).
